Ah, props to Skeme, who mentioned this in the C-Box last night.  I’ve been a fan of the Low Budget Crew forever… Kev Brown, Kenn Starr, Oddisee… this is music I can listen to all day long. This mixtape features a bunch of new and unreleased cuts from all of the Low Budget Crew’s upcoming projects, including the official release of Kev Brown’s Random Joints, as well as his concept-collabo with Kaimbr, The Al Green Project, RODDYROD’s Cuba After Market 1.5, Blunt Park Sessions re-release, and more. Also in the mix are some older tracks, plus some never-before-released rarities from the crew as well.

    YES!! Low Budget are those dudes, good look on this Kev. I saw Kev Brown and some of the Low Budget Crew open up for EPMD here in DC, about 2 yrs ago, and I was blown away. I’ve been looking out for them ever since. An EXTREMELY gifted group of individual to say the least. Looking forward to the Speak Greene release that Kev Brown is EP’ing as well, thats wassup!

    First I want to say I am a HUGE Low Budget fan. Don’t want to be a killjoy here (especially because this is free), but the audio quality of this mixtape makes it almost unlistenable. Whatever mastering plugin they used at the end adds an annoying amount of treble (probably to make it loud), and listening to it gives me a huge headache. The sad part is I love almost every song on this mixtape, but dammit why did it have to get ruined just to make it loud? I would even buy a cd version of this.
