Afrika Bambaataa & James Brown —
Unity (third coming, because it's coming, nuclear wild style, can you see it, light, world III) ... 12-inch 
Tommy Boy, 1984. Very Good+ (pic cover)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Six different mixes of this meeting of two greats. Admittedly not as entirely dope as it could have been, but still as nice as a Soul Sonic Force records with backing by Doug Wimbish and Keith LeBlanc. Also, there's a few interludes with James Brown saying a few words about the record. (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record
(German Polydor pressing. Cover has some edge wear, lightly bent corner, and some marker in front.)
Coldcut with Lisa Stansfield —
People Hold On (full length disco mix, speng mix, radio, New Jersey jazz mix, acapella) ... 12-inch Tommy Boy, 1989. Near Mint- (pic cover)... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A very big early moment for Lisa Stansfield – who sounds great here on vocals, adding a level of soulfulness that was missing from some of Coldcut's records before this one. Cleveland Watkiss is on backup vocals, so that probably helps out too. This is the version with the more sought after ... (Soul) read more 12-inch, Vinyl record
(Promo. Cover has a promo stamp and light wear.)
Tommy Boy, 1994. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $34.99

3 Feet High & Rising (2CD expanded edition) ... CD 
Tommy Boy, 1989. Used 2CDs ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
The mindblowing classic debut of De La Soul! 3 Feet High And Rising is inarguably one of the most important records in hip hop history – with playful, endearingly oddball trio rhymes and Prince Paul production at it's most sprawlingly sampled and creative.

Tommy Boy, 1991. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... About December 31, 2022
The epic second De La Soul album – a slightly deeper record than the upbeat 3 Feet High And Rising, but to us it's just as irrefutably classic – and among the best hip hop full lengths ever! The trio is still working with Prince Paul, so despite the cover image and declaration of the ... (Hip Hop) read more LP, Vinyl record album
De La Soul —
Me, Myself & I (radio, inst, oblapos mode, oblapos inst)/Tommy Boy, 1989. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
Great 3-sided single that features two regular sides, plus a third side "hidden" amidst the grooves of the second side.

Fantastic 12" with soooo many different mixes of this fantastic De La song. Enough stuff to make up a full-length "Saturdays" suite, really, with lots of cool bits and very different takes on the same song. (Hip Hop) 12-inch, Vinyl record
(Promo in a Tommy Boy sleeve.)

Tommy Boy, 1990. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... $32.99 33.99
A fantastic debut from Digital Underground – an early 90s classic that opened the door for a whole new audience for hip hop at the time! The set effortlessly mixes old school funk with contemporary hip hop modes – and also maybe brings back in a bit of the party sort of vibe of early ... (Hip Hop) read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Limited edition on clear blue vinyl – 2LPs, for better sound than the original!)
Tommy Boy, 1990. New Copy (reissue)... $15.99 16.98
Maybe just an EP, but a short set that's every bit as important to the Digital Underground catalog as their full length albums – as the whole thing is overflowing with the kind of funky tracks that made these guys a standout right from the start! The set's only got six tracks, but that maybe ... (Hip Hop) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Grand Puba —
Grand Puba 2000 ... LP Elektra/Tommy Boy, 1995. New Copy (reissue)... $24.99 27.99
The mid 90s solo set from Grand Puba – the still solid Grand Puba 2000! GP 2K is a more mellow and easygoing set of funky hip hop than the work that Puba did with Brand Nubian – a bit lighter on the politics, although Puba's verses with that group never had that much politics in the ...

Handsome Boy Modeling School —
So How's Your Girl? ... LP Tommy Boy, 2000. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... Out Of Stock

House Of Pain —
House Of Pain (180 gram 2LP orange & white vinyl pressing – with bonus tracks & jump rope) ... LP Tommy Boy, 1992. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... Out Of Stock
The record that finally pushed so many blue-eyed doubters into the embrace of hip hop – and one of the few of its type that could deliver the same sort of punch as the best of the underground! In later years, the album's come to be associated more with fratboys than the group probably would ... (Hip Hop) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Jonzun Crew —
Lost In Space (yellow vinyl pressing) ... LP Tommy Boy, 1983. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
Sweet breaking grooves from The Jonzun Crew – an early act in the Tommy Boy hip hop roster, and one who were maybe a bit more electro than the rest! Here, Jonzun Crew have a vibe that's nicely like Newcleus – lots of sharp drum machine beats, peppered with keyboards, vocoder on the ... (Hip Hop) read more LP, Vinyl record album

Prince Among Thieves (yellow splatter vinyl pressing) ... LP Tommy Boy, 1999. New Copy 2LP (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A hip hop masterpiece from Prince Paul – his second album as a solo act, but one that builds on years of top-shelf experience in the east coast scene – including his roots with Stetsasonic and production of De La Soul!

The full length debut of RuPaul, and the start of a legend – a kickoff to a surprising run in American pop culture!

Seven Minutes Of Funk/Amherst/Soul International, 1976. New Copy (reissue)... Out Of Stock
A massive bit of funk from the Whole Darn Family – an essential break track from back in the day (think EPMD and others) – but a funky nugget that's more than great enough on its own!
