While rummaging through one of DJ Shad‘s music hard drives a couple of months ago, I came across a song by Stik Figa (Topeka, KS) called “Part of Town.” The beat sounded familiar and I remembered it was from one of Miles Bonny’s old beat discs he was handing out at the Peanut back in 2006 or 2007. I wish I still had that CD. There were some great beats on it. This song, Stik says, is the first recorded track he made that convinced him that he was actually pretty tight at this rap shit. Back then, Miles was the first person to really start pushing Stik to record, and this song came out awesome. Apparently it came out on Stik’s Ill Roots release a couple of years ago. He performs one of the verses on this track, acapella, to open up all of his shows as a kind of “mic check,” which means if you’re a fan of Stik, this song will sound very familiar.
