Does he seriously expect us to believe that they didn't know the demand for this project would be this high when he sells out every single bandcamp release in under 3 mins? That is really insulting.

I prefer Reject 2, EIF 2, and LWIB over this as of now but maybe more listens will change my mind.

Hey we agree on something! I was wondering if I was the only one who was not blown away by Lulu. Expectations were definitely high because these are two of my favorite artists but it just did not hit for me. The production wasn't bad, but again nothing that grabbed my attention and I didn't...

It's dope, it has an obituary for Percy, tons of photos that are pretty hilarious, a couple ads for fictional tv shows like "Life After Blackface" and a movie with Kenan Thompson playing Big Pooh and Wendell Pierce playing Phonte. Also includes full credits for each song. Its actually a really...

I received my copy of May The Lord Watch today and it is beautiful. The gatefold is really heavy and the images are sharp. I didn't realize that it was pressed at 45rpm, but damn it sounds fucking amazing. I read on Phonte's instagram that this is a limited run that was intended to be sold on...

Reading the Patta website, it says "comes with the Patta-exclusive LULU Vinyl EP". I could take that to mean the vinyl is exclusive to this Patta bundle, or this specific version of the EP is a Patta-exclusive and there will be additional variants. If I had to guess, this EP will see a release...

I'm just gonna wait for the standard black version that Mr. Bongo will release in about a month. This always happens with Fat Beats and Mr. Bongo releases. FB gets an exclusive pressing and takes pre-orders prior to the standard version being released. I wouldn't have an issue with it if they...

In actual hip hop vinyl news, Boldface EP, Layups, FNIC, and Thrill of the Hunt 2 all arrived in the last couple days! Haven't had a chance to spin them yet but I have been listening to the albums on bandcamp quite a bit. Hopefully Price of Tea in China gets a vinyl release soon.

I cringed at that line also. You are getting dangerously close to making a reverse-racism argument so yah, I would take a long break.

Few of the hip-hop records I was looking at appear to be RSD First's instead of exclusives so not too worried about missing out: Pete Rock - Petestrumentals 3 Curren$y - Pilot Talk Tyler - Cherry Bomb Little worried I won't be able to get the Retropolitan instrumentals because its a regional...

Surprised no one posted this yet. Alchemist really after that bag haha, he has had so many releases lately. The hat is dope, might pick up a black copy (who am I kidding of course I will).

Not gonna lie, the blaxploitation cover is dope but still not buying another Pinata pressing.

Yah I love the album but the vinyl pressing (even the director's cut) wasn't great. If I remember right, it was noticeably quiet compared to other records. I am a huge Madlib / Rappcats stan but even I am getting really annoyed by their cash-grabs lately. Why do we need like 5 versions of...

Yah, I'm gonna go ahead and trust the dozens of DJ's I know in a 45-only Record Club over your anecdote. DJ's that are serious about spinning 45's don't give a shit if it came from a box set. If it's the only 45 pressing and/or sounds good, that's all that matters. Pretty much every 45 DJ I know...

Ok. It's like you ignored my entire post. DJing 45 sets is its own little sub-culture and just because you don't get it doesn't mean it isn't valid. There are plenty of records and deep cuts that were only ever issued on 45. I guess DJ Scratch, Diamond D, and Jazzy Jeff are just jerking each...

For a lot of the tracks on the album, this is probably the first time they are getting pressed on a 7" 45RPM record. DJing 45-only sets has seen a rise in popularity recently and I think these boxsets are trying to cash in on that. For a DJ, carrying around a crate of 45's is a LOT easier than a...

I was checking out the RSD list that got posted on reddit and saw some hip-hop records I gotta grab. Pete Rock - Petestrumentals 3 (Pete Rock mentioned this one is all original music, no samples, which has me very intrigued) Pete Rock - Retropolitan Instrumentals Tyler the Creator - Cherry Bomb...

Man, I really want that Knx Box for the 1988 release, but $50 is a little expensive.

Got back from a business trip and The Professionals was waiting for me. Gave it a spin and I was wondering if the vinyl was noticeably quiet for anyone else? Felt like I had to crank the fader on my mixer to get it to the same level as another record I was playing.

Yah that was horseshit. I refreshed at 7:59 and got the drops when it refreshed and clicked on the splatter. By the time it loaded the page it was already gone. That was the craziest drop yet. Ended up getting an orange which was my second choice. I didn't check previous orders but did anyone...
