Vinyl Me Please Rap & Hip Hop

[CrazyDiamond84]

In a perfect world....

2 Chainz - Pretty Girls Like Trap Music
Wale - The Album About Nothing
The Game - Jesus Piece (i know i've been pushing this for like 5 years now. It's bound to happen)

I'd love that Wale. I could see them doing an Oddissee as well for DC.

Yea Mixtape or Album about Nothing would be fantastic especially because he just did More About Nothing last year

Someone did mention Oddissee has a new one otw so who knows

Frances was a store drop not a ROTM. Deloused was the ROTM.

I don't think it's this quarter obviously but looks like they're doing an Atmosphere album this year, I wonder which one they'll do?

God Loves Ugly got reissued last year, on 3xLP thought, including a Bandbox variant.

September is the 20th anniversary for Seven's Travels. You Can't Imagine How Much Fun We're Having is the other I would guess but a repress of it is available on Atmosphere's site.

 

[CrazyDiamond84]

Yeah Atmosphere has been pretty well reissued lately with all the anniversary pressings. I could also see If Life Gives You Lemons.... as thats been 4 years now since it was done.

Looks like they have a lot of 3xLP and everything seems to stay in stock so this is looking like a colour variant of something rather easy to find? I guess if they went with the original cover for Seven's Travels that might be something but that's also a 3xLP...for the prices they charge they should do a 3xLP more often!

So the last RHH guess is fun and wonder if any super sleuths can figure it out:

LA Rapper, appeared in 3 ROTMs.

Anyone care to narrow it down based on features in different ROTM?

I think I'm one album off from the Game or Snoop.

EDIT: Also Dre, but as pointed out below likely answer is Madlib.

Madlib?

 

[avecigrec]

Madlib?

MF DOOM, Quasimoto and 420 Chalice All-Stars

 

[bdrummond]

Madlib?

Yes, this appears to be correct.

 

[avecigrec]

Yes, this appears to be correct.

Shades of Blue is getting a Verve By Request reissue later this year - seems like a perfect time for VMP to put out a more expensive version

This is one I've been wanting to grab. Wonder if they'll use the same plates?

 

[mdmost]

Shades of Blue is a Blue Note release and will be a Tone Poet later. I highly doubt Blue Note lets VMP have it or the plates.

Right Tone Poet not By Request, my bad.
Multitasking Monday.

I was very confused and also like, well given the reputation by request has to date…

 

[NewsFedora]

Madlib has released like 200 albums in his career. Why does Shades of Blue specifically keep coming up? If it’s gonna be a Tone Poet later this year it makes absolutely zero sense for VMP to be doing it.

Crossposting from another thread with the latest hints:

So month one is ATL artist who has shown up once before in a VMP sub, which excludes OutKast. Who else would qualify? I guess Big Boi if you exclude the OutKast stuff…

Month 2 is DC, never previously featured. Wale still applies, I think.
