Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

Someone please remind me why I signed back up for VMP at $40 per record. My July adventures included two rounds of defective Mars Volta records, and now August greets me with a big fat fucking seam split across the top of the jacket and a moderate smooshed corner. Thrilled about dropping $40 on this Outkast with a damaged jacket.

Time to message customer service AAAAAAAAAGAIN. [eye roll]

Check your side D for noise too. Apparently that’s a thing also.

Yeah, noise there too! And two spine splits hidden under the obi. So 3 splits, 1 smashed corner, and side D noise.

VMP, just send me that Lee Morgan in Sept so I can quit already.

I hopped on to another users sub for ATLians and was planning on signing for essentials to get the 2xLP 36 Chambers but yeah, periodically signing up for VMP for an occasional release is my reminder that the stove is hot. They just aren’t worth the price or the hassle. There are plenty of less stressful ways to blow through my pay check with this hobby than dealing with this shit on the regular. At least with Lee Morgan being Classics it seem less likely they will fuck that one up as that is about the only semi reliable sub they offer.
 
My side D of Outkast had significant noise on the first track. I assumed it was recorded that way, but it seems as if I need to reach out to CS!

Since ATLiens sold out, I figured I would go ahead and add on RHH for the PE album. It is the only one saying waitlist me. The country and classics are able to add on. Does this mean PE is already sold out?

yeah i'm not for sure on that but that's what it's looking like.
 
Just received OutKast and I’m dreading listening to it... this is potentially my third record I’ve needed replaced from them in the span of a month.
 
ATLiens and De-Loused in the Comatorium are both huuuuuuuge ROTM’s and GZ have fucked both of them up bad!

I really hope VMP repress Side C/D of ATLiens! I’m sure they will if they’re repressing disc A/B of De-Loused in the Comatorium!

What an absolute mess for VMP! In the end, they’ve decided to partner with GZ, so I wonder how much/big of a fuckup it’ll take for VMP to get another pressing plant to press their ROTM’s!

You know Nathan means business when there are no emojis.

The problem is GZ is a large pressing plant that can handle the volume that VMP needs. Even with the headaches, it may be the best of all possible worlds.

Also 🦤🤖👻

Yes, baby monster is not playing any games when he isn’t using emojis!!! 💯👹🦅❗️

Yeah, I was thinking exactly the same thing - GZ can handle the volume VMP require! Ah well, as long as VMP do a repress of the impacted discs to ensure everyone gets a good copy! 🤞

Everybody chant along:

Wu-Tang Clan is gonna get fucked up!
Wu-Tang Clan is gonna get fucked up!

...and this prospect is just so unattractive!

I want to call the GZ pressing plant and chant to the manager:

Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing ta Fuck Wit!
Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing ta Fuck Wit!
Wu-Tang Clan Ain’t Nuthing ta Fuck Wit!

I just want to be the biggest Karen to them even though they probably wouldn’t give a shit! 😂🤦‍♂️

Just realized I’d been posting about the OutKast in the Essentials thread.

Here’s what the start of my side D sounds like.

Thanks for the video! Yeah, that noise is bad! Hope GZ and VMP can come to an agreement and agree to repress the C/D disc and make it work! 🤞🤞🤞
