R.A.W Profile: Roy Lucier AAA Lucha Libre

If, like us, you happen to be a huge fan of, early to late, 90's AAA Lucha Libre then Roy Lucier has got you covered courtesy of his incredible YouTube channel!!!  Featuring a collection of both individual matches and TV tapings, from 1992 - 1999, this channel is truly a goldmine for 90's AAA Lucha Libre fans!!!  Watching some of these classic shows took us back to discovering AAA (and Lucha Libre in general) through Sky, in the UK, on the Galavision channel (as back then Sky was host to a whole load of random European channels as well)!!!  Check out the channel here and really delve in to some classic AAA action -  Roy Lucier AAA Lucha Libre on YouTube

Shadowstar Boxer & Bean Lebouc - Mr. NOBODY: Verses, Vol. 1 - Applause Break (Stream + Purchase)

Image
Shadowstar Boxer and Bean Lebouc join forces for the their new single 'Applause Break' through Mister Boxer Creates DeckHead Records label!!!  The single is the first release under a new single series, by Boxer and Bean, called 'Mr. NOBODY: Verses' which will have Boxer rhyming over 'Re:Imagined' versions of some of Bean's favourite beats.  The series is similar to Adult Swim's collaboration with, the late, MF DOOM called 'The Missing Notebook Rhymes', in 2017, however that project only saw 7, out of a scheduled 15, singles released so hopefully 'Mr. Nobody: Verses' manages to see the series through to the end!!!  Stream + Purchase it here -  Shadowstar Boxer & Bean Lebouc - Mr. NOBODY: Verses, Vol. 1 - Applause Break (Stream + Purchase)

R.A.W Profile: Gustavo Louis

Image
Gustavo Louis is what R.A.W Culture is all about!!! Gustavo is a Hip-Hop artist, from Hempstead, New York, who spits raw bars over dusty soul loops and rocks Lucha Libre masks whilst doing it!!! Listening to Gustavo's track 'Uncle Jheri Curl' gave us the same feeling we got when we heard Westside Gunn, for the first time, on 'Mr. T'. Whilst rappers rhyming over soulful loops isn't something new there is something about the way Gustavo flows over them that makes him stand out from other artists that do it. If your a fan of the new wave of underground Hip-Hop and artists such as Westside Gunn, Roc Marciano, Knowledge The Pirate, Hus Kingpin and Mach-Hommy then Gustavo Louis is right up your street!!!

It's been well over 23 years since World Championship Wrestling was booted off TNT and TBS, the assets were scooped up by Vince McMahon and the company reverted back to the Universal Wrestling Corporation (as a shell company) to deal with the legal mess WCW had left behind however, to this day, people still miss the company and pages like WCW Deep Cuts, on the 'X' platform, keep the, weird and wonderful, legacy of it alive!!!  The page features everything from early 90's match snippets, and promos, all the way up to details about 'WCW Classics' which aired on Turner South, in 2001, after WWF/E has purchased the companies assets.  They also do the weekly 'WCW Deep Cuts Live!', on Twitch, which is well worth investing your time into at the link here -  WCW Deep Cuts on Twitch   The fact of the matter is WCW was awesome and it's legacy, and impact, can still be found within todays Pro Wrestling landscape and it's
