15.10.2022: Its about time to do some updates for the site! First of i came across an Outsidaz interview i never saw before. It's from the Mass Appeal Magazine Issue 5, 1999. I got the scan by the interviewer himself. His name is "J-Crush" he is a journalist and the cousin of Axe / Celebrity from the Outsidaz. He told me that this is the last interview that Slang ever did, or atleast it was the last day he saw Slang Ton alive. He send me a good quality scan last december last year, but back in 2016 he posted a scan on Facebook with this text:
"Tbt but heart breaking this is the last time I saw my Homie Slanga Banga this was his last interview I remember this day like yesterday I was a Contributing Editor at Mass Appeal Magazine I interviewed the Fam at the Out House I just came from Johnson Ave interviewing Big 7 and HardWe're now to show you how far back even farther the history goes. Loon was in this interview Zee and Pace was actually on a mini Tour with Eminem so the couldn't be Present so my Cousin Axe,Slang,Yah,Denti,Azz Izz,Du and Loon held it down. That's the day I met Dj Spunk as well. After that Me,Slang,Du,Loon,and Manson went to the Washington Square Park SmokeOut where Slang took over the Sipher and had the whole Crowd focused on him...History!" - J-Crush 2016
Luen One, Slang Ton, Denzy, Az Izz, Axe, Yah Yah and D.U. of the Outsidaz did the inverview. So please check out the "Interview" section.
Over the last year i was also able to get a few more pictures with Slang Ton, so check out the "Pictures" section. One of the pictures is with Ski (Outsidaz Manager) and Eminem. This is one of the many pictures Az Izz posted on Facebook and Instagram. I also was able to find that picture of the Outsidaz, Tame One, B-Boy, Chris Schwartz and the Ruffhouse-Crew in colour, but only in bad quality. And there were also a few pictures i found of Slang Ton and Karaz from around 1999. Karaz is from Philly and he is the founder of "okayplayer". Some of the pictures are from someboday called "I.Q. From The 215. BSkills helped me to get some infos for those old photos.
The last thing i wanna mention is that Young Zee announced an upcoming Outsidaz album. He posted a picture of him, Pace Won and Rah Digga on Instagram and he gave all the members a shout out that will be featured with him on the project: Pace Won, Rah Digga, Axe, D.U., Nawshis and Yah Yah. And he also mentions that he has some unheard Slang Ton verses that he wants to put on the upcoming Outsidaz album. That sounds AWESOME. Here is the screenshot:

07.02.2021: I finally took the time to make some small updates to the website. I was able to get another picture with Slang Ton. A woman called "Stefanie Lock Wielgus" uploaded an old photo from June 1999 on facebook. This is one of the most epic pictures i ever came across because its featuring the Outsidaz, Tame One, Chris Schwartz and some of the Ruffhouse-staff people:
Clockwise from top left: Tame One, Chris Schwartz, Slang Ton, Young Zee, B-Boy, Axe, D.U., Kurt Woodley, Az Izz, Todd Wolfe, Luen One, Stefanie Lock Wielgus, Lisha Logan, Pace Won, Yah Yah and Denzy.
Some weeks ago Az Izz started his "Beef" with Eminem .. this is like the second/third time he's doin this. But this time it feels like the whole internet is listening. Some members of the Outsidaz (Young Zee, Rah Digga and Denzy) started defending Eminem. Az Izz said he is done with the Outsidaz crew and that he left the Group. So alot of response videos showed up and "Slang Ton" was often mentioned. I did some research and made a list of videos. It's very entertaining .. some videos are better than the others ... check them out:
Az Izz Interview On DoggieDiamondsTV (2021):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YR-67ISUa0o
- Az Izz mentions all the members of the Outsidaz. He is talking about Slang Ton was his rap-teacher and that Slang was the best New Jersey rapper (3:25 Min). Az Izz is talking about the recording of the "Hard Act To Follow" and "Macosa" songs (10:30 Min). Az Izz said he and Slang Ton were Battle-rappers (28:30 Min). It's a long interview, but if you have some time left check it out.
Young Zee Interview On DoggieDiamondsTV (2021):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A6r9IrS85so&t=1929s

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WTi12DlDII
- Pace Won is talking about the member-history of the Outsiaz and his Highschool days with Slang Ton (at like 9:10 Min).
Duhnokah Interview with Baloo TV (Talking About Slang Ton) (2021):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcYPDOR7MOk
- Duhnokah of Da Goldminerz / Newark Anonymous Clik is talking about Slang Ton on Baloo TV. He is talking about his time with Slang Ton before the Outsidaz. He's talking about that their favorite rapper was KRS-One and that they went to school together with Luen One. Then he's tellin how the Outsidaz came together and that Slang made him a member of the Newark Anonymous Clik. Duhnokah shares also some stories about Az Izz and he mentions again that he still has some tapes with unreleased songs with Slang Ton. Some years ago i tried to buy some of those songs from him - I sent him the money but nothing ever happend. I got my money back .. but let's hope he will share those songs one day with us. Check the interview out .. the quality is really shitty but its better than nothing.
Pack Pistol Posse talks about Eminem, Slang Ton, Az Izz, Redman, Runt Dawg and DMX:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm230FHQ-zo
- This is an old "Pack Pistol Posse" (G The Dragon (R.I.P.), Mack-Sul & Double O) Interview that was recently released. G The Dragon and Double O are talking about Eminem stole the rapstyle of Slang Ton and Az Izz (0:55 Min). That statement was very controversial and Mack-Sul later made an own video sayin that this interview is like 8-10 years old. This interview is actually one of many clips that were uploaded by "Sleepy Eye Entertainment" to promote the recently released "Can't Forget New Jersey" documentary on Amazon Prime.
19.09.2020: 2 Weeks ago was the 21th anniversary of Slang Ton's death ... i wasnt able to get any exclusive music this time .. there has to be more unreleased music from Slang Ton around ... we just have to be patient ... heres a Big Rest In Peace to Slang Ton
Some time ago i came across this "Making Of" video by Az Izz. Like 3 years ago they tried to shoot a music-video for a song called "Wishing On A Star" by Az Izz. The video has also cameos by Rah Digga and D.U. of the Outsidaz. Anyway the video still isn't released so far, but Az Izz told me he still wants to release the video one day. The song was already released as "Make A Wish" on the "Sir Aubrey King" album by Az Izz. At the end of the "Making Of"-Video (9: 46 min) they are giving Slang Ton a Shoutout .. check it out:
Az Izz - Wishing On A Star (Making of The Video):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg-hb-hr8cY
I also came across some pictures with Slang Ton .. if I remember correctly i got those from Az Izz ... One is just Slang Ton and Yah Yah ... the second one is Slang Ton and Az Izz at the Ruffnation Studio recording songs .. And the last one is just a screenshot of a Shades Of Hip Hop Poster featuring Slang Ton on it... I uploaded them into the "Pictures"-section.
After re-listening to the classic "Night Life" EP of the Outsidaz i just realized that Young Zee mentions "Slang Ton" on the "It's Goin' Down" song .. so i also did a small update on the "Rappers Mentioning Slang Ton"-section .. just to have it as complete as possible.
The last thing i did today was to update the "Thank You's"-section ... This year in january i lost my friend "Andrew Dodd" .. It isn't the same without him ... he helpd me so much to create this website ... "I will always remember you Andrew .. Rest in Peace."
28.03.2020: Okay its finally time for some updates ... the beautiful Egypt send me some exclusive pictures of Slang Ton ... Some really amazing ones .. including a picture with Egypt, Slang Ton, Rah Digga, Young Zee and Spliff Star .. its like a collaboration picture of Flipmode Squad, the Outsidaz and the Newark Anonymous Clik ... all in one picture .. she told me she never shared this picture with the world so its a special exclusive for this website ... She also sent some never seen pictures with Eminem and a few ones with the Outsidaz ... alot of pictures of just her and Slang Ton .. those are really special .. they show the love Slang Ton and Egypt had for each other ... i really feel honored for beeing able to share those pictures with all you guys ... I also replaced some pictures because i found them in better quality .. im so happy that we got all that for the website .. Enjoy!
Also i updated the Discography section with the "Outsidaz - Yeah, Yeah, Yeah & Macosa Promo Vinyl Single" .. it features the uncensored Version of the "Macosa" song ... i bought this some months ago and was hopin it maybe has the "Demo Version" of the song on it .. but it just was the regular uncensored "Macosa" song plus the Instrumental version. I also added the 2 songs with Slang Ton and Luen One i got last year for the website. The Discography is complete for now .. lets hope some more unreleased songs will see the light of day.
I completly updated the "Interviews" section with a new layout and i added 2 more magazines with Articles about Slang Ton and the Outsidaz ... one is the infamous Blaze Battle Article about that battle Slang Ton won in 1999. Check that out!!!
The last thing i wanna mention is that i came across a music video that is dedicated to Slang Ton .. its the music video for the song "F What The People Say" by rapper Az Izz of the Outsidaz from 2011 .. at the end of the music video it says "In Loving Memory to Winifred Luthers, Shirley King, Slang Ton and Big Proof, gone but never forgoten" ... Check it out here or in the Videos section:
Az Izz - F What The People Say (Music Video)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxjm8sYSkvk
05.09.2019: Today marks the 20th anniversary of Slang Ton's death, so I have this time something really special .. One of the producers Slang Ton worked with called “Rhino CMZ” gave me 2 completly unreleased songs .. Both songs are produced by Slang Ton himself and co-produced by Rhino CMZ and they also feature Luen One of the Outsidaz … The story behind the songs is as follows:
“Yup! He brought the records over and told me what he wanted to use….I just added drums and bass. He conducted the whole thing….Both songs. Somewhere around when he did the Blaze Battle. Cuz that’s when he was comin through my crib to record or chill. He came to my crib the night he won the Blaze Battle….Like 4 something in the morning…” – Rhino CMZ 2019
I am really happy that i can share this songs with everybody ... Thanks again to Rhino CMZ for those exclusives … You can go to the Soundcloud site on the Audio section or just download it here (right click and save as):

20.05.2019: It's been awhile ... but i had to do some updates .. first i updated the "Rappers Mentioning Slang Ton" section with another song ... it's the "Everybody Get (Remix)" by Young Zee and Rah Digga ... Slang Ton gets just some short shout out from Young Zee on this remix version with completly different lyrics ... so i had to add this .... Dope Folks Records and Young Zee released some of the songs of that Muscial Meltdown re-release on youtube .. so you can check out the song here:
Everybody Get (Remix) - Young Zee, Rah Digga:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ClbZCyk8XY
I also updated the "Pictures" section with 5 new pics of Slang Ton ... one is with some people from the block and "P Long" (that's the old road manager of the Outsidaz) ... another picture is with Slang holding a copie of Eminem's Slim Shady EP Promo cassette ... you can see Eminem and Yah Yah in the background ... there is also a picture with Monique Nicole and Slang Ton as kids .. thats a really cute one hahah ... the last picture is Slang Ton and Az Izz .. its just a screenshot from a Shades Of Hip Hop VHS tape ... most of those pictures are from various Facebook and Instagramm sites .. so a big shout out to the people who originally updated those images ...
And i updated the "Discography" section mainly the "Unknown Songs" part of it ... Im sure there still a ton of unreleased / unheard Slang Ton songs, freestyles etc. and im hoping with this website we will be able to find more of those unreleased gems ... Lets wait and see what the future will bring us ...
03.10.2018: I finally found the time to upload "The Bricks (Pre-Release) (Slang Ton Tribute Edition)" to Datpiff and the Slang Ton Support Channel on Youtube. Just to make it easier for people to listen to this awesome music. I also updated the Discography with the new/old Outsidaz album. Check the album out if you haven't already:

07.07.2018: First of thanks to my homie Andrew Dodd .. He came across a documentary about Eminem's first album "Infinite". The documentary shows pictures of Eminem, Slang Ton and Young Zee in the Outhouse studio recording the "Macosa" song. I linked the video in the "Videos" section and updated the "Filmography" section. I also made some screenshots and posted them on the "Pictures" section.
I also updated the "Rappers Mentioning Slang Ton" section with 3 songs. One song is from Wyclef Jean (there is even a video to this song available), one is by Az Izz (Az Izz deleted the song on youtube but its still available somewhere) and the last one is by a rapper called Z Nuff Starr (you can listen to that track here: https://soundcloud.com/djapnrcpro/shoznuff-freestyle-si4) ... also big thanks to BSkills for giving me the info on the Wyclef Jean song and linking my website to the official SlangDoe Records site: http://www.slangdoe.com/
11.05.2018: Egypt gave me the permission to upload the "Fiendin' 2 Get It On" song by the Newark Anonymous Clik on the Slang Ton Support Youtube Channel and on the Soundcloud page. I really wanted more content on those sites ... let's see if more artist letting me upload their songs with Slang. But for now probs again to Egypt. I also updated the "Rappers Mentioning Slang Ton" section with the song "For Real" by Frank Doket ... another artist from Newark area ... you can listen to the song on the ReverbNation site of Frank Doket: https://www.reverbnation.com/frankdoket/ ... if you wanna buy the album that features that song than contact Frank Doket on his facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Doket ...
30.04.2018: I planned this for a long time ... a new section for this website called "Rappers Mentioning Slang Ton" ... i guess the title speaks for himself ... all the songs i listed here don't feature Slang Ton on the track, he is only mentioned (directly or indirectly) by other rappers .. huge Shout out goes out to the people who helped me create this list: Andrew Dodd, Paul Haverman and Brandons Stash ... as always if anybody has something to contribute to the website please feel free to send me a message to: [email protected]
05.09.2017: Today marks the 18th anniversary of Slang Ton's death ... Pace Won gave me the permission to release the "Demo Version" of the "Macosa" song in remembrance to Slang Ton .... The song was leaked around 2004 on a Eminem Bootleg CD and now the song is officially released on this website ... Pace Won recorded the song back in 1997 in the original Outhouse together with Eminem, Slang Ton and Young Zee ... You can go the Soundcloud site on the Audio section or just download it here (right click and save as):

File Size: | 7489 kb |
File Type: | mp3 |
02.09.2017: I finally added an "Audio" section to the site, witch means i was able to make a "Slang Ton Tribute Soundcloud" page. I only added "Free songs / Internet exclusives" so far - nothing that was pressed up on CD or Vinyl. I'm hoping to get the permission to add more songs to the Soundcloud page, since most of the releases Slang Ton is featured on are very old and i'm not sure if still anybody makes any money of it - but i probably won't post anything that is available on iTunes since there you can still buy the songs and support the artists.
27.07.2017: I added the "Da Goodness" music video by Redman to the Filmography ... Slang Ton had a cameo appereance on that video. I also added a Screenshot of his appereance on the Picture section ... thanks to DJ Muhammed for this awesome Information ... also updated the Video section with this music video .. the "I Declare War" video got deleted from my channel ... so i added another link ... R.I.P. Slang Ton
25.07.2017: Okay, here is it ... finally ... the first and only Slang Ton tribute website. It took me weeks/months/years of research, and now i'm satisfied with the layout and the content. I really hope this site will get some attention from the people who knew and loved Slang Ton aka Salih Ibn Al Bayyinah Scaife ... I did this in my free-time and i hope over the years people will help me to make the website more complete ... I really hope to get more pictures, more videos or even some "new" unreleased music ... Let's keep the Legacy of Slang Ton alive!
For any questions please feel free to contact me over the Youtube Channel "Slang Ton Support" or you can reach me over my email:
