Rockwell Noel & The Poet – Massacre (House Mix) is a rare late-1980s hip-house crossover from Queens, New York, blending raw East Coast rap with underground club production. Rockwell Noel, also known as Noel Orlando and Twicky Wabbitt, was part of the early New York independent rap scene, releasing vinyl-only singles that circulated through DJs and club systems rather than mainstream radio. The Poet on this record is Wilbur Bass, later known as Blaq Poet — a Queensbridge MC and longtime Marley Marl affiliate, who would go on to form PHD and later Screwball, becoming a key voice in Queens underground hip-hop. “Massacre” captures the moment when house, electro and street rap collided on 12-inch vinyl, aimed directly at late-night clubs, warehouse parties and radio mix shows. If you’re into early hip-house, old school New York rap, rare vinyl, and forgotten crossover records from the late ’80s, this is essential listening.
