Blu & Shafiq Husayn —
Out Of The Blue ... LP Nature Sounds, 2024. New Copy Gatefold ... $25.99 29.99
The cover looks all sort of soft and dreamy, but the record has a bite from the very first second – beginning with an old school news report about gang violence in LA, then serving up a gritty set of rhymes from Blu that really live up to the glory days of west coast hardcore hip hop! Shafiq ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Childish Gambino —
Awaken My Love ... LP Glassnote, 2017. Near Mint- ... Just Sold Out!
Childish Gambino once again transcends anything you might be expecting from an actor/musician – this is not some vain star trip at all, but a worthy, boundary-busting effort – and a pretty sizable step away from idiosyncratic, yet accessible hip hop into spacey pop funk! Strong stuff, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Til The Casket Drops (punch vinyl pressing) ... LP Columbia/Get On Down, 2009. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 28.99
Pusha T and Malice step out strongly on their final album as a duo – a set that's maybe got a slightly different vibe than their previous run for Jive Records, but in a way that also has us wondering how much they would have grown, had they stayed together!

Dead Prez —
Lets Get Free ... LP Loud/Get On Down, 2000. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $28.99 30.98
The dawn of millennium classic by Dead Prez – and angry, revolution-minded effort from a period on major label hip hop that sorely lacked such strident players – and if it didn't make any huge waves commercially, that only strengthens its legacy! Sticman & M1 are at the top of ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
Fab 5 Freddy, Grandmaster Caz, Chris Stein, etc. —
Wild Style – Original Soundtrack ... LP Animal/Mr Bongo (UK), 1982. New Copy (reissue)... $25.99 27.99
A really great record, and maybe one of the few hip hop soundtracks to get at the real feel of the music on the streets – maybe no surprise, as the film for which it was created did the same thing! This isn't a fluffed-up Hollywood take on hip hop, with mainstream soul thrown into the mix ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Just Sumthin To Do ... LP 4 Sight, 1987. Sealed ... Just Sold Out!

Fantastic Vol 2 (with bonus tracks) ... LP Ne'Astra, 2000. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $25.99 28.99

Psyence Fiction ... LP Mo Wax, 1998. Very Good+ 2LP Gatefold ... $69.99
