HOLY CRAP! I had, or maybe still have, this tape somewhere. Played the hell out of it.

[MrHotpantsImComin]

You can't talk about Dre, Eazy, and the Roadium without mentioning Steve Yano. He's the Asian vendor who sold these mixtapes from under the counter for $10 and had all the beats on 12" before anyone else.

[ruffbizness]

@MrHotpantsImComin on the other side of this tape (i don't have anymore) ice cube mentions him in the intro. i remember it went somethin like this...

ice cube in effect i got somethin to say

cold running thangs with nwa

[ricardosuperx]

@ruffbizness what 's music 3:15 / 3:52 please help!!!!!!!!!

[ruffbizness]

@ricardosuperx I wish I knew not sure... Sweet T is rocking the mic though...

[ariel1972]

@ruffbizness it's my beat sweet t blended with psk instrumental

[MrNoejc]

@ruffbizness That's Schooly D. "Looking at my Gucci" If I remember correctly. Check out "Saturday Night" by him.

[chriswomackable]

@ricardosuperx .. Schooly D PSK - what does it mean

[MrNoejc]

@ricardosuperxMy bad, PSK not looking at my gucci. Still Schooly D though.

[KINGJOHN808]

memories......what ever happened to the mix tape. real "wax"....no mixing with Ipods and lap tops. No disprect to those out there that have no idea what technics 1200'z are. Do what you do, but know the history of the mix tape. Long live the Roadium!!!

[wonderataoldotcom]

the schooly d beat is from the song called PSK, since i see it marked with a question mark in the description

[wesleychin]

yep i was at the crenshaw swap meet  buying the mix tapes from the asian guys who hid them under the counter. and throw in some D batteries for my GE ghetto blaster too. the 80s rule! (we didnt have CDs back then)

[JEDI7ACEN]

OOOHHHHSNAAAAAAP! I got one of these Dr. Dre's mix tapes from 87.

[NYbornatheart]

I wish I grew up with this hip-hop and not the rap that came out later on. I was like nine when this stuff came out. I only listened to what my mom listened to back then. she liked Hendrix, so I guess I can't complain about that tho...Jimi was the shit too. :P

[coreyaustin1]

Dope mix, but you forgot to mention that King T in this mix too.

[aisback1990]

could you send me a download link homie

[souljazzie]

I used to buy these Mix Tape At the Roadium Swap From Dre when they had that post with Steve Yayo at the Swap

I still have the cassettes in mint condition with the sleeves play list

[daruler5one]

I was born in the 90 I love gangter rap from nwa to bg knocc out drest dj quick hi c and all the cats I need there musick but don't know it all someboddy make me a list to copy of these artist no repeats please 90s babies fuck it up to muthafuckas

[MrPakibastard]

[bhustle2002]

this is the shit i remember when i was bumping all the roadium mix tapes

[tomsawyer211]

is that the beat thats later in no vaseline

[coreyaustin1]

Actually it was Cinderfella by Dana Dane, but it was originally sampled by Brick, the song is called Dazz

[deboyfresh86]

Man you should put up a link to download the mix.. If you do not have a place to host it hit me up ill host it on my server for free... I would jam this over the radio any day....

[socratesnxtlvl]

[DK654549]

the baseline at 3:06 can someone please tell me before i go mad, sweet track

[TRB1946]

Thanks for the upload, this shits dope on a rope !!!

[illadvised50]

Man, every single of these songs takes me back. Dope Man was my shit! Oh my god. We used to bump that in my little bucket on the way TO the swap meet. lol Leaving the swapmeet with a fresh Dodgers hat with "Skeeza Pleeza" sewn into the sides. Haha If it was late Sunday afternoon...I don't even have to say it. If you came up during the 80's in L.A. you already know where we were headed next.

[villiemack]

excellent shit homes

5/*5*

[coreyaustin1]

OMG, my brother had this back in like 1987. They played this on KDAY with the cussin and everything.  Love this, this takes me back to my days in Pomona, CA. 357um all day

[lilmaccernas]

What Ever Happen To Steve

[fritzbeats]

Damn! I had this shit. I remember going to Steves booth near the bathrooms at the Roadium.

[Oakles22]

This is a 4 track mix. Still dope, but don't get it twisted.

[GisiuS]

1st song name pls ?!

[JspekRex]

Ive looked for it too, its gotta be a exclusive mixtape song. The beat is sampled from "Brick" by dazz

[ruffbizness]

Its from the instrumental version of Cinderfella by Dana Dane.

[djdrxx]

i lost this tape. but i have alot of the roadium swap meet tapes. i just upload 85 live, and going off, i have hi-c & dj tony a mixtapes to.

[martymall007]

OHHHH! yes! Good ole roadium!!!! what ever happend to STEVE YANO???

[NewJackIndustries]

N.W.A. was such an influence in my life I got it tattooed on my arm.

[ChrisSSocal]

lol what a dumbass

[luvnlvnlife]

compton long beach...what? sunshine

[jlsyourtube]

Yo this is slamming. I'm 38 now bra. Back then in cali on camp pendleton base my brother in law use to take me too the swap meet to get mixed tapes man. I was around 20 then. Whew this is old school mixing bra. Thanks for posting this. Thanks God for technology.

[purplexxe8]

Shit Bangin'.

[tamapalagi]

I grew up in Gardena and went to the swap meet all the time. I live in Connecticut now and haven't been to the drive in since the 70's.

[jonmmadison]

so i'm confused--*you* made this mix, or did dr.. dre make it?

either way, very dope. love mixtapes where fools be actually *mix*...how i used to lay it down ;-)

i need to do another mixtape soon

[jonmmadison]

oh you're talking about the images....

[DaManzMoney]

Dre

[DaManzMoney]

Look in the realated video's 86 in the mix by Dre they are good to

[danielrfkn]

!DOPE!

[ItcomesNatural502]

SICK!

[streetdreams310]

at its purest form..

[6elbze6u6]

first track ??

[THEBZNZ0125]

Do you have Mixmaster Spade? Mr. Big Stuff? Please add the O/G Spade Tapes

[cgseven77]

oh thats funky, thats funky

[andrano665]

whoever said "questionable", you have no idea what real gangster rap is all about..

[DaManzMoney]

At 5:11 it sounds like Icecube's Ghetto Bird but he even sampled it from Ohio players Funky Worm but still a dope beat either way

[MaravillaBrownie626]

its "dopeman"

[DaManzMoney]

I know what the song was I was just saying

[DaManzMoney]

I meant the beat

[illpoppa]

questionable

[sjerrick]

Thanks for Posting this. Rap used to be cool. Now its a race to sellout and promote negative stereotypes. Wake up hip hop, you dont know your future if you dont know your past!

[DaManzMoney]

the first beat that starts around .20 seconds is like the Icecube No Vasaline song and at 5:44 its the Ghetto bird song from Cube

[IllPropaganda]

Still crate dig in Crenshaw!

Sad part is; these intros are the best part of any of the Rodium tapes.

Have every tape Dre put his name to, bought at Steve's booth as a kid. Later Tony A did most the mixing.

Bumpin KDAY to go pick up the new Dre mixtape or Eazy 12'. Good fucking times!

[imperialjr03]

Dam straight IllPropaganda. These intros are the best part. Anymore OG DRE mix tapes with that old school / oldies mix. How many turntables was Dre using back in the day?

[IllPropaganda]

Only saw Dre at the Rodium once with Eazy and Ren. Dre wasn't spinning, Eazy was getting mad jocked. Got a signed promo that day though.

[Crispysmith123]

These Rodium tapes are awesome for the ipod - especially when I want to block out all the stupid teenagers talkin' loads of shit when I'm on the bus.

[Crispysmith123]

Isn't Romeo by The Real Roxanne?

Nice vid/ presentation btw.

[mexicanthug007]

I lizten 2 thiz shit back in tha day,thatz when i started bangin!!7..COMPTON baby..=]

[ruffbizness]

The Eazy E intro isn't from Dopeman. You're right though, not a freestyle - Cube probably wrote it. How many freestyles are REALLY freestyles anyway?

[crayyawn]

hardly any, just a connection of pre-written lines

[nassmusic]

good sound!! i like that!!!! vive le old school
