Bridging The Gap ... CD Interscope, 2000. Used ...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
A very strong second LP by BEP – and one that does a surprisingly great job of mixing soul-based production with more hip-hop oriented modes! Tracks include the Premier-produced "Bep Empire" (is it just us, or are most of the NuHoppers nearly always at their best when they rely on ... (Hip Hop) read moreCD

The track that introduced Daft Punk to a generation of 106th & Park viewers, "Touch It" is just about as great of a club banger as you're likely to hear, with monster Swizz Beats production. (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record

2001 ... LP Aftermath/Interscope, 1999. New Copy 2LP (reissue)...
Temporarily Out Of Stock
Dre's solid and hugely successful follow-up to The Chronic, and production-wise it holds up really well after all these years! Chronic set the sound bar so high, even 6 or 7 years later its shadow loomed large, but Dre delivers a headnodding groove that was pretty tough to resist, then and now. The ...

The first solo set that Dr Dre cut after leaving NWA – and a record that not only set the tone for his solo career, but also for a huge run of albums from other folks in the years to come!

D12 World ... CD Shady/Interscope, 2004. Used ...
Out Of Stock
D12's sophmore full length is a pretty fair improvement over the largely forgettable debut – particularly the single "My Band", one of the rare cuts in which Eminem seems to have a pretty good time lampooning is own image. Other tracks include "Git Up", "Loyalty" ... (Hip Hop) read moreCD
A batch of some of the best and/or biggest hits from one of the most singular talents in the history of hip hop – love him or loathe him!

Eminem Show ... LP Interscope/Aftermath, 2002. Near Mint- 2LP ...
Out Of Stock
More gallows humor, and dark, clever wordplay from Slim, with an occasional party bounce and maybe not as pitch black as some of the material on the previous LPs. Cultural phenomenon status aside, The Show finds the Shady one still up there as one of the better narrative storytellers, but we have ... (Hip Hop) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
Em's fourth album hits many of the same notes as its predecessor, signaling a bit of a comfort zone for the former Slim Shady. The beats largely fall on the darker-toned lilt of the now instantly identifiable sound. Tracks include "Just Lose It", "Mosh", "Evil Deeds" ... (Hip Hop) read moreCD
Eminem's 2nd LP, where the sh!t REALLY hits the fan. What's still striking and genuinely exciting about this record, which is hardly worth even describing considering the mountains of opinions, protests, and moral grand standing, is Em's willingness to keep instigating the people he offended. ...

Eminem at an early, angry, darkly comic peak –mixing rawly personal storytelling and revenge fantasies with a cynical sense of humor in ways that weren't entirely unheard of in underground hip hop, but his voice was so distinctive in both sound and style, and blew up so huge, he pretty much ...

4 tracks from the soundtrack, with clean and dirty versions of each: Obie Trice/Eminem/50 Cent "Love Me", Eminem "8 Mile", Obie Trice "Adrenaline Rush" and D12 "Rap Game". (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record
How 50 manages to stand out as such a genuinely exciting MC is in such a crowded field of street hip hop is as mysterious as it is beside the point.

Kendrick Lamarr waited quite a long time to give the world a follow-up to his classic DAMN – and for good reason too, as the rapper's been on a long personal journey that's documented strongly on the record!
