In the summer of 2005, the underground scene on the streets of Queens NY. was really buzzing. This is around the time when every recording artist became independent. This was possible by artist pressing up their own CD's or DVD's and distributing them hand to hand. Also during that time was when you could walk into any local deli, groceries store or barber shop and purchase bootleg copies of all of your favorite albums or mixtapes.
Most of these projects were handcrafted so they were only available in limited supply. There was alot of good music and hood movies released on the streets. Some of these releases stood out more than others.
The best of Mikey D mixtape is now 10 years old. Not sure how many were actually made but if you have a physical copy of this CD you are holding a rare gem.
