TEST PRESSING of 1995 TOTALLY INSANE "Backstreet Life" 12"Single GANGSTA HIP HOP
TOTALLY INSANE
Backstreet Life / Total Insanity 12" 33rpm Single TEST PRESSING
1995 / Rainbo Records, Santa Monica, California
Rarely-seen test pressing of the 12" single associated with this West Coast rap duo's most successful album.
"Backstreet Life" was their third album and was released on July 25, 1995 on In-a-Minute Records, produced by Totally Insane (Mac-10 and Ad Kapone) and the Premiere Music Group (TC, Race and Reggie Smith).
Apparently this one was originally labeled by hand in blue ink but misidentified as being by fellow In-A-Minute artists RBL Posse (their "Bounce To This RMX" single), and dated 3/29/95. This was corrected in black marker.
