This is 100% true. I bought a Vinyl Passion vinyl once back in my early days of collecting, before I knew what I was doing. The pressing was so bad, that it drove me to do research on how it could sound so bad. So I guess in a way I have to thank them.
Anyway, I highly doubt VMP would, or even legally could, use the Vinyl Passion master to press their albums.
My guess is this version:

I shudder at it being Rainbo but that being said, I have had a few good pressings by them through VMP so it could be alright.
It's weird that they have two versions of this released by the same company so close together. You can never go wrong with a KG mastering!
On VMP Reddit? I don't see it.
Either way, I know there are a lot of Caribou fans on here so I wanted to make sure they knew!

Oh no sorry I thought you meant the album announcement which Caribou announced this morning with the release of a new single.

So since I haven’t received a shipping notice on Mobb Deep I’m assuming mine is one of the records That got shipped elsewhere.
My question is if they are trying to avoid a repress, and not everyone returns every single Mobb Deep, what do they plan to do for the customers that won’t get their record? Because it would seem odd to reward those who return it and then give the odd ones out just a refund.
Just a hypothetical. Not “mad”.

Yeah, sounds like my extra Coltrane was from the same issue. I want to enter this raffle!!
They really are going to stick with that "we really are a small company" until the cows come home, aren't they? Just gonna use that excuse to deflect blame from themselves every chance they get. I'm surprised "we're working on it" wasn't included in that nonsense.
Don't piss on my leg and tell me it is raining, voldemort. 30,000 - 40,000 subscribers is not small. Heck, even 10,000 isn't small.
And lol @ the anorak as an enticement.
Also - that is A LOT of free stuff in that raffle. A LOT. Which means there are A LOT of people out there that got multiple Mos Defs. But guys, they're really trying!

Lol im taking the heat now for suggesting this offer is super lowball for the people that got massive amounts of Mobb Deep.
I went from +3 to -6 before the VMP staffers and stans got to me.

Did they ever say why they just started shipping random single orders and not just holding them to ship with the record of the month like they always did?

Anyone get extra copies of TLC? Still waiting on shipping for that and I'm wondering if its stuck with the same issue.
Yeah I got my extra Coltrane also, I emailed into support so we'll see what they say. I'd be happy to send that shit back for a test pressing.....
Remember when they used to send random surprise records? I got once of those once. Back when they were a small business.

I wish I bought extra copies of Mobb to flip. I'd now have a pick of test pressings or keep my stock and make a killing in the resale market.
The seam splits, creases, warps, and scratches will make it look vintage
I think they tried / think they are doing the right thing with this offer and in general are being generous. However, I think when you actually start to boil all the issues down, it's a little ill conceived. But again, that's kind of the trend so it's expected.
