Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

[chrb98]

With all the concerns of overselling and stock fiascos recently (Nat Turner, Weyes Blood, etc), this makes me worry

2018 VMP concerns: “Oh man, this record sold out! I already bought a copy but I hope they have enough if I need a replacement”

2019 VMP concerns: “Oh man, this record sold out! I hope I’m able to get the copy I bought in the first place”

Concerned about both!

He said in the reddit thread he wasn't doing hints on the day of announcements

it's a day after now right? lol

The guess threads will continue on in spirit on the subreddit, Storf has free rein to throw hints up on there whenever he wants. I think he's wanting to wait a bit though, since the ROTMs were JUST announced. Which is fine - I always found it difficult how quickly people would jump back into guess-thread mode mere hours after the ROTM announcements

He said on reddit he’s gonna give hints but it’s too early rn. I assume the hints will be on reddit.

Cool. Thanks guys. Reddit it is. I just love the guessing game that's all. It introduces me to more albums than just the actual right guess

I agree, the guessing was usually my favorite part of the old forum. I hope Storf joins this forum one day to continue those guess threads

I asked him on IG 2 days ago and got a negative. Wont be happening anytime soon unfortunately. I really enjoyed his presence on the forum even if I didnt always like what he had to say

This is what concerns me.. especially as a Canadian, I expect to get mine later than most of the States customers. And I've had a decent number of dished records.

Well they’ve made it clear that dished records aren’t a significant enough of a warp to warrant replacement. I bet you they are going to be super stingy on replacements for these.

I guess the higher ups are more petty and bitter about the forum backlash than they let on. Why keep someone like Storf away from the new community that YOU forced to move? The subreddit? Really? The place that started a thread complaining about the "stupid, loose baggies" that Al Green came in, with no clue who QRP is, full of people that had never bought a MoFi/AP/QRP album in their life?

Yeah Storf, good luck hyping up that crowd over some of those Classsics picks

 

[frodo-pkt]

I just checked and UGK is no longer listed in the Swaps. So congrats to the ones who got in on that

Was Tidal sold out? I dont remember that

Tidal took a while to sell out actually. I remember seeing it available when I first started in November 2018.

That FOMO game VMP is running seems to be working for them. It must have caused this to sell out. I also bet they sold a ton of the 3 month and 1 year subscriptions. I guess their new "plan" is working for them...

That loose baggie really grinded my gears

They are slowly becoming the enemy. Which is a shame because I believed they were "different" for years and rooted hard for them

I'm on the subreddit pretty often, and oh my god that QRP thread made me cringe.
