The long awaited mixtape from DJ Don Cannon & Curren$y Tha Hot Spitta, “Smokee Robinson” has finally hit the internet making tons of Spitta fans very happy. The tape has been a long time in the making and the Super Bowl Sunday release is sure to please all fans.
And if the music wasn’t enough heat for you, Spitta once again teamed up with us here at 3rd ID for some more hot cover art. The concept was based off old-school, vintage football trading cards. And with the release occurring on Super Bowl Sunday (along with the Saints’ win over the Colts) Spitta’s home town of New Orleans had an even stronger impact on the cover design and color schemes.
Hit the jump for the back cover, tracklist, download link for the tape. We have also included the original/alternate color scheme just for the fugg of it…
Another Super Bowl is upon us and this one should be a good game. If it’s anything like last year’s Steelers vs. Arizona game, then I’ll be happy!!
I will be even more happy if the Saints win. 3rd ID has mad love for New Orleans and everything bout the city, so seeing them take that trophy back to “The Boot” will be a great site. Especially given everything they’ve been through over the past few years. I just wish we were all gonna be there for Bourbon Street’s craziness once they do take that title.
I will not overlook the Colt’s and maybe one of the best QB’s to ever play the game, but my heart is with New Orleans so all I gotta say is “WHO DAT?!?!?”
Much to the satisfaction of hip-hop heads all throughout Texas, Washington DC’s very own, Wale will be making his way to Austin for a show at Republic Live on Friday, February 12, 2010.
With opening acts from some of 3rd ID’s close homies, The Table Manners Crew and Problem Child, this should be a night to remember.

The long awaited, “A Breath Of Fresh Air” album from North Carolina’s own Conrizzle, is finally upon us. As well as having a few featured tracks on 3rd ID’s own “Cuts From The New Cloth” mixtape in ‘09, ‘Rizzle is making quite an impact with his talents for beat-making and spittin’ rhymes.
This was recorded in Arizona three years ago and doesn’t reflect on how much ‘Rizzle has grown since. He was still nice with it back then showing a timeless style that is true to his album name, and very much a breath of fresh air. It’s the first of many good things to come from ‘Rizzle this year, so stay tuned.

Christian Washington from New Orleans, Louisiana is a gifted rapper known to most as “Kidd”. “Kidd”, short for “Street Kidd” grew up in the uptown portion of New Orleans, more specifically the 12th ward. He grew up with a genuine love for music encompassing all genres. Kidd picked up a pen at a young age when he met his first producer and DJ, DJ Moon. DJ Moon showed him how to hone and perfect an original, yet familiar flow. Together they created an underground Mixtape titled “The Street Kidd”, hence the name.
Kidd came across Alex “Pac” White, an upcoming producer and engineer in the city. “From day one, it was magic”, says Street Kidd on working with Alex White. They would continue to work and bond over their love of real hip-hop as well as their mutual understanding of hip hop’s role today. This commonality eventually led to Alex White signing on to manage Street Kidd.
A year later Street Kidd would link up with producer and Traffic Boutique owner Lawrence “Crack Tracks” Parker. The rest is soon to be history get familiar with Street Kidd and his new Ep “Refuse 2 Lose” presented by Cracktracks.
Be on the lookout for more of his music as well as future 3rd ID x Streetkid collab tees and cover art.
