Make 'em say UGHH


First thought upon hearing the news that Madam "Quest" Walder is closing down the UGHH store in Boston + UGHH.com in its entirely: that store + website still exist?

Second thought: is this karma for the UGHH webstore using RealAudio snippets back in the day and/or the forum spawning 4 eLeMeNtZ survivalist retards like Jaz, AC Tha Program Director, and Wicked22?

Third thought: ain't gonna lie, I did cop a record from the webstore in 2003 - the 7" of Anti-Matter by King Geedorah & Mr. Fantastik. Best DOOM song which ain't on Operation Doomsday, IMHO.

Third thought: Walder still owes me a cheque for my chronicle of the Filipino Frank vs. Immortal Technique beef which spiraled from the UGHH forum to the Fat Beats NYC store.

Fourth thought: my own personal favourite UGHH forum moment was when that Je$$ $antana lass who pretended to be Paul Castellano's granddaughter got exposed as the obese daughter of a Rodney Dangerfield impersonator from Rockville, Maryland.

Fifth thought: quick, someone find the thread where Chuck Wilson from Babygrande Records got busted sock-puppeting his own releases under the alias of JEDI MIND TRICKS FAN before Walder vapourises the forums.


Sixth thought: at least that's one less message board Gentle Jones can spam with his terrible music in 2017.

DJ Vlad got busted for sock-puppeting on UGHH too. Wicked22 also beefed with him for using cdj decks.

My UGHH wants list:

The pic of Fat Je$$ in the diner with her dad
The thread where DJ Vlad got busted
The pic of the whigga poster in the knee-pocket jeans
The thread where Crates1974 had the story about Alpo buying mixtapes from Kid Capri

Being from the Boston area I will say the store front was alright for what it was in retrospect but I stayed away from that forum like a plague.

The forum was hilarious in the early noughties.

Man I need the Vlad one, so much of his fuckery trickles out through his carefully presented interviewing I can only imagine what gold there is from him posting anonymously on UGHH in the early 00s.

he repeatedly lets ppl he interviews know he ignores haters, 1 day after Lil B calls him a snitch he drops

Flashback: Lil B On Being Blamed For Killing Hip-Hop, Illuminati & Aliens

Flashback: Lil B on Threatening to Rape Kanye West, Denies He's Gay

I think Vlad mightve actually knocked Rosenberg off the perch

Vlad used to post as himself (and refer to himself in 3rd person 😃), but he had a few alias accounts which he'd use to hype his own shit up.

In hindsight, Wicked versus Vlad was a battle of titans.

lol oh man only 2 days left. My first contat w him was those Biggie & 2pac tapes but I can only imagine how mad his current position is now to ppl who knew him from then.

I get why the likes of UGHH and Access Hip Hop have shut down brick'n'mortar stores and hardcopy sales but forums/website too? Yes more artists are streaming/selling direct via ITunes, Bandcamp etc but who is going to herd cats and let Heads know what's out atm? None of this matters as I'm one of the only half dozen sad cases who still pay for their music and who like to own tangible copies of recordings. Trans-Atlantic shipping costs have been criminal for a good few years now and customs charges are pure extortion. RIP Foolblown, Hiphopinfinity, Hiphopsite, UGHH and Accesshiphop (still on life support but destined to flatline in 2017). RIP all mail-order stores who used to advertise in HHC: Assassin Records, Grooveshelter, ATL Records, Ruf Beats, etc.

Icon The Mic King bought it offa quest. From gettin' snuffed by Vinnie Paz, to beating down Copywrite, to owning UGHH.com.


These damn playa haters don't wanna see me blow, UGHH.com CEO.
