Beastie Boys —
Ill Communication ... CD Grand Royal, 1994. Used ... $2.99
What can we say? The Beasties rise to an even higher level with their manic trio hip hop style mixed with the live jazz/funk/garage rock sounds and keyboards by Money Mark – featuring a bunch of their classic hits and underappreciated album cuts alike. They could really do no wrong at this ... read more CD
Beastie Boys —
Licensed To Ill ... CD Def Jam/Columbia, 1986. Used ... $3.99
The game changing Def Jam classic – and possibly the greatest album by the Beastie Boys – even though they'd grow up a whole lot after this! Profane party anthems galore, and the Beasties would distance themselves from much of the attitude of this album, making their career arc from ... read more CD

Blu & Shafiq Husayn —
Out Of The Blue ... CD Nature Sounds, 2024. New Copy ... $14.99 15.99
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 CD
Also available Out Of The Blue ... LP 25.99
Boogie Down Productions —
Man & His Music ... CD B-Boy/Traffic, 1988. New Copy ... $6.99 15.98

De La Soul —
3 Feet High & Rising (2CD expanded edition) ... CD Tommy Boy, 1989. Used 2CDs ... $26.99
The mindblowing debut of De La Soul – a set that's inarguably one of the most important records in hip hop history – overflowing with playful, endearingly oddball trio rhymes and Prince Paul production at it's most sprawlingly sampled and creative! The set has classic songs that stand ... read more CD
Also available 3 Feet High & Rising (2LP pressing) ... LP 29.99(Out of print 2CD version with tons of bonus tracks, none of which are on the new reissue!)
Elzhi & Oh No —
Heavy Vibrato ... CD Nature Sounds, 2024. New Copy ... $12.99 14.99
Elzhi serves up plenty of great lyrical work here, but our favorite aspect of the record may be the work of Oh No – who definitely takes the title seriously, and uses plenty of vibes throughout! This may well be the best vibes-driven hip hop project we've ever heard – as each track has ... read more CD
Fugees —
Score ... CD Columbia, 1996. Used ... $3.99
The record that really broke The Fugees out of the box – not their debut, but the album where everything really came together – especially the fantastic mix of vocals and MC work that Lauryn Hill brought to the group! The album was a key bridge between hip hop and soul back in the day ... read more CD
Also available Score ... LP 30.99

Fantastic Vol 1 ... CD Long Player/Ne'Astra, 1997. New Copy ... $8.99 19.99
Slum Village's legendary Fantastic Vol 1 – one of the most sought-after hip hop albums of the era – with the most rugged-and-raw Jay Dee production on record!
