Wasn't gonna get Pinata, but I can't believe it sold out so fast. Haven't seen an exclusive go that quick since De La. Cheers to anyone who got it! Somebody help @NathanRicaud get a copy!

To answer your first question, yeah, Tape Cookies is instrumental. He has a ton of beat tapes and also plays keys in a jazz band called Butcher Brown. He signed with Stones Throw but only has one album out from them right now (HazyMoods). And you didn't ask, but Leslie Jones is a fan:
And to answer your second question, yeah Ohbliv is from RVA too. In fact, that hype sticker name-dropping VMP is what got Storf to tell me to expect more from Richmond later this year. He didn't make it sound like it'd be Ohbliv, though. But I certainly wouldn't mind if it was! He has a ton of beat tapes himself, I think Raw Spirit Jewels is my favorite. Wouldn't mind seeing that one on wax.
This has definitely piqued my interest. Gonna have to look into his stuff for sure, good lookin out!

His Chemical Warfare album turns 10 in July too so could be that. Clouds on the cover and no vinyl ever. Never listened to his solo stuff before but listening to this now... it’s fine.

Oh hell yea. Chemical Warfare with a Yacht Music 2 pre-order please!!! I forgot how great the features were on it!! Thank you!
One official clue so far:
A lot of the initial thought was that it'd be a Chance album, possibly Acid Rap. But with the above email saying thevinylsalbums would be only available on his site, I guess that throws that theory out the window.
So first clue and I'd say it's wide open. I'm hoping the clue is misdirection and the Classics record has a song about guns and multiple vocalists and we're gonna get some instrumental hip hop.
Oh ok this is cool. Thanks for this
Am I reading that part right that we already know Essentials? What is it

It's their yet-to-be-released album. No one has heard it yet.
There are a couple of tracks on Youtube I think.

To all the people hoping for Alchemist, it will never happen. He doesn't clear his samples and VMP ain't going to take that risk.

It hasn't been released yet, but Sleater-Kinney has a long history of quality albums. However, this one was produced by St. Vincent, and many long-time fans believe that the new singles that have been released are a departure from the band's previous work. Apparently, the drummer is uncomfortable with the band's new direction and has quit before the release of the album. But fans of St. Vincent should maybe be pleased? I dunno
Oh ok. Thanks for the info. Not overly familiar with St.Vincent either. Another quietish month for me again I think

Man, 10 year old me was banging out Luke's Banned In The USA. What happened to you kids those days ?
I was 14 and I brought it to my friends house during school lunch hour. Pre set his stereo volume to full and asked him to play track 18. The look of fear in his face trying to turn it off, neighbours lost their minds

It’s actually something I’d imagine you do as a teenager!
