True Terror Squad heads will remember the Bleach Brothers from nearly 10 years ago as they made their debut on their album. Well, the Bleach Brothers are back in the '07 with "Immortal" featuring Jim Jones. These kats are on FIYA. The Bleach Brothers are a two member group which consists of Reka (aka Rek Norris) and Dirtman (aka Dirt Da Rock Morocco). The tag team hails from Jersey and Queens respectively and was formerly known as Q-Jru. Reka is a hard hitting mc from the Flushing QUEENS project “POMONOK HOUSES” who holds it down for the New York and Queens side of things, while Dirt holds it down from the other side of the Goethals Bridge (Dirty JERSEY). This group was formed in late 96’ due to an old friend R.A the Rugged Man setting up a meeting between Tommy’ O Rourke, Reka and Dirt man. But the mc’ing of both of these characters dates back to the late 80’s as they are not new to the game and have paid their dues. The Bleach Brothers, then known as Q-jru were featured on MTV’S return of the “white rapper” segment alongside of Dr. Dre’s new artist & protoge Eminem and were dubbed as Q-jru the “hard hitting bridge and tunneller’s who have the credibilty and talent to hit big”. After the show aired Q-jru went on to change their name to “The Bleach Brothers” and were featured on the Terror Squad self titled Album w/ Fat Joe and Triple Seis.They did this collaboration shortly after performing at spring break with TS and slightly before the death of Big Pun (R.I.P).

Rap Attack takes a "WHAT'S UPPER" look this week with:

PrizMatik (SPRINT Mobile Radio Network & HipHopFundamentalz.com): "The most recent scandal on everyone's mind goes to the radio personality dinosaur Imus and his racist remarks against professional women basketball players. What are your thoughts on all this? Although I may not agree with this man's opinion, we all need to remember the 1st amendment. Free speech is something I hold sacred, no matter what the situation. Now if someone like Imus chooses to speak his mind in this way and receives a negative backlash (including the loss of key advertisers for his show), so be it. I have no sympathy for racist and crude comments. You would think in the year 2007 we would all evolve beyond that. Goes to show you just how predictable our society can be"...

Nesto (WODU-VA): "What's good fam? 2 of my favorite shows is back on the TV and this past Sunday the long wait was over for the new season of The Sopranos, and Entourage. Now all I need is the new season of The Wire and I'm good. I have to say watching Entourage really makes me want to experience the lifestyle of a big movie star just running through Hollywood and tearing it down with his crew.
Keep the hits coming and please send all MP3s to INTHECRATES@GMAIL.COM

Oh yeah, on the mixtape game check out the Biggie tribute tape that Mick Boogie and Terry Urban dropped. Good stuff, and they got a couple of other tapes on the Mick Boogie site that is definitely worthy of coping"...

Anilast aka Stuart de la Rosa (KSMT-CO): "My thoughts on the new Planet Asia "Havin' Thangs" single? I put it in my cd player right when I got into my car and new that was the first song I had to hear even over the vibe song. The reason for this is because that day I had gotten the package I was having one of the best days of my life. Hot women around me, why wouldn’t I have a hot song to compliment them hot ladies. It just made the day even better! Anthem style beat holding the lyrics tight like a virgin on prom night. This isn’t dance music this is something you can listen too. Planet Asia is my boy and will always be respected in the Rhythm Lounge"...

Witnes (KPFT-Houston): "Hope all is well. Once again I want to thank you for all the support for the past 5 years. It's time for me to move on to other things. I found someone to take over on the charting with Rapattack Lives for KPFT. He goes by the name Grinch or Mr. Grinch. He was my co-host for 4 years on
LateNiteSnax and was there from the beginning. He also is a part of the Soular Grooves Collective where we all rotate w/ DJ Sun's show on Saturdays. Here's his contact info:
Email: Liveguy@gmail.com
Phone Number: 713-775-0431
Thank you again for everything"...

DJ Raize (Mixtape-New York): "I recently released an online mix for one of the most overlooked producer in the game: Ski Beatz. Dude produced Feelin' It, Dead Presidents, Streets Is Watchin', People Talkin, Luchini, Cheapskate, John Blaze, and the whole Camp Lo album. Peep out the mix hosted by Ski Beatz and mixed by yours truly. It's an Audio Discography mix with his hits mixed with the samples he used. Got an unreleased Camp Lo Track "Ticket 4 Two" and an unreleased Jean Grae track off her New Album. 1000 Downloads in 1 week can't be wrong. It's a good look.

Beatz, Rhymes & Samples: SKI BEATZ is a mixtape dedicated to, and hosted by, one of the most overlooked producers in Hip-Hop history. Since his groundbreaking work with the Bizzie Boyz to his early 90's work as a member of Original Flavor, Ski Beatz has produced some of the greatest Hip-Hop songs ever - but dont take our word for it - just ask Marley Marl who once stated that if he could have produced any single song in Hip-Hop history that it would have been "Streets Is Watching" (Jay-Z, produced by Ski Beatz) ... This free mixtape (mixed by DJ Raize of Bklyn) features many of Ski's classic productions
(Jay-Z, Camp Lo, Fat Joe, Pacewon, etc.) mixed in with the original records that he sampled to create the beats. Towards the end you'll get to check out a few new tracks that Ski recently produced for artists such as Cover, Jean Grae and Camp Lo"...

Vernassa Fields (Live365.com-SPYN CYCAL): "I'm working on building my Christian/Faith based Hip-Hop music library for specialty programming every Sunday on Spyn Cycal Raydio. Every Sunday will air Christian/Faith based Hip-Hop all day... Please service me with material to my address listed above in NASTY NEWS"...

Solo (WECI-IN): "If you wanta make sure that I am rockin your music please send it to the addy below, otherwise I dont know it even exists. I dont care if the station gets music, but they dont inform me if it comes in or anything.
Dont take me wrong, I love my station, they gave me my big break.. We just have a communication failure.
