I can't make this shyt up brehs. 
My step pops goes to auctions so he won a storage unit and they had this box full of old cassette tapes in it. Years ago, he gave it to me and I was like, "Yo this is a shoe box of old school hip-hop treasure right here. I hit the damn lottery.
"
Some of you probably like,"nikka this just a box of old hip-hop shyt. Ain't nothing special about it.
"
This is history breh. Pieces of history with different sounds, influences, and words put together by different music artists and producers who made hip-hop what it was back before the 2000s. This is an era we will never be able to go back to, so I just wanted to share this magical box with the coli.
Mostly the reason why is that this is golden history to me. I listen to some hip-hop, funk, R&B, etc late, but I wanna catch up on the rest of the past of hip-hop/funk/jazz, R&B. Thanks to a few posters who post old hip-hop music and videos in RT (@stomachlines @Otis Kane Jr. @Tenchi® @Esco @King Napz and others
).
So I bought this from amazon
and with it, I'm able to listen to the tapes naturally like back then, and record the tapes into MP3s on my PC. 
Here's a sample of some of the tapes that are in the box...
Down below I will update the OP and thread with new cassette tapes as I progress through the shoe box:
