Sunday, March 29th, 2015 marked the 10th anniversary of Blueprint’s debut solo album on Rhymesayers, “1988”.

This week only, you can buy “1988” for just $4.99! Order the album from Fifth Element now, and we’ll throw in a free digital download of DJ Rare Groove’s official “1988 Live” mixtape, which was the exclusive bonus offered with the album pre-order back in 2005.

“No Half Smokin'” was a B-side cut on the “Print Is Goin’ Off” 7-inch vinyl release, which dropped around the same time as the “1988” album. Both songs were reinterpretations of 80’s Hip-Hop classics; Big Daddy Kane’s “Ain’t No Half-Steppin'” and Biz Markie’s “Biz Is Goin’ Off”, respectively. The original songs were both released on the Cold Chillin’ label, so the labels for this 7-inch were also reinterpreted to mimic the 12″ single labels on those original Cold Chillin’ releases.

This song may not have been heard as widely as the album, so we thought we’d share it here, too. This 7-inch is still available in limited quantities at Fifth Element for only $2.99! Get It now: fifthelementonline.com/products/blue…-7-inch-vinyl
