Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

[duke86fan]

eamon's "i dont want you back" is a masterpiece dont @ me

 

[Rahawk2]

That was kind of the elephant in the room and I’m glad someone said it.

Then again Public Enemy may have fought the power but they really never did anything in regards to fighting for our rights to party.

 

[dmoney]

i think Raising Hell might of been the first rap album i heard growing up.....it was that or Straight Outta compton

 

[NewsFedora]

One JJ Doom is left, who's gonna get it?


Edit: Annnnd it's gone!

 

[Dope Saks]

Damn that Mobb Deep looks pretty cool but not a member and not really wanting to commit to 2 records

Had to sign back up for this. Swapped Slowthai for The Carter 3, hopefully this "The most important rap album" coming takes the pressure off the third month.

Rockbox is my fav Run DMC track so personally wouldve like the S/T, but if we are getting Raising Hell there are no complaints from me!

Still afraid we might get something like Country Grammar or Ja Rule - Pain is Love

But they did party for our right to fight.

eh i get why people would love run DMC.. they certainly have charisma.. but its clearly the album has aged kinda badly.. not horribly, but it feels like all they are doing is screaming their raps and the rhymes are very simplistic

cancelling for this month and buying mobb deep

Not for nothing, but...Storf said most important, not best.

Raising Hell was the first rap album to go Platinum and Licensed to Ill was the first rap album to top the Billboard album charts. Clearly both albums were/are hugely important in the history, and popularity, of hip hop. I'd say Raising Hell was significantly more important, while Licensed to Ill has been more popular, but that's just my opinion man.

Now, either way if it's one of those two albums, they are not hard to get quality reissues of in basic black, for relatively cheap, but so was How I Got Over and that's sold out, so clearly VMP know their market. As I like colour variants, and stencils I'll never use, I'm in for either.

Is Gorillaz up for swap? I might consider grabbing that to get it

 

[scotthilk]

Did you guys see hint #2? Not very helpful, but...

 

[doncornelius]

We've been discussing it. I think I am now on the Run DMC camp as Raising Hell is a more likely pick for the RHH track.

Yup, it's there and available.

I heard that. I don't have either and they're neither something I would go out of my way to get but, I like both and either one would be nice to have in the collection, plus I like vmps treatment. Annnnnnnnnnnddd I cant miss out on this Mobb Deep lol...... missed Biggie twice.

"Reissue of the debut LP from the New York duo who will stab your brain with your nose bone, we have The Infamous on blue and orange haze vinyl"

I reckon whoever got to write this little description using prodigy's lyrics gave themselves a little pat on the back for it. Probably pitched a lil mini trouser tent while coming up with it

 

[Murfocakes]

To not be PE and use the ‘most important rap’ tag is bullshit. I like Raising Hell and Licensed To Ill but using that status is total hot take nonsense.

 

[wingclipper]

Not even Storf w would call the beastie boys the most important rap album. Has to be run dmc, widely heralded by MCs as the most Important group

He said it may be the most important & previously called HIGO a modern classic. He'll say anything to mislead guess threads and build hype

And it’s not even their debut album

I completely skimmed over the word debut in it myself I've got juvenile hell on cd but cant remember if I picked up the recent (ish) vinyl reissue or not on now I've got every other album on vinyl for sure
