Jesus, I hope he leaves those to someone trustworthy, he should give VMP a call, they're really becoming synonymous with restoring records like that for a repress (without damaging the original records).
Yeah, I don't think it's the original members, no idea what it's like, but it's good to see the movement surviving the holocaust out there. Hopefully it causes a resurgence
nice looking set that
Yeah, it’s really well done, they’ve put a lot of thought into it, which is great cos Biggie really is one of the godfathers that should get recognition for those that came after.
Absolutely, well said there. Ready to Die really broke the mould for me. That album had the all the hoes, the drugs and the violence that his contemporaries were also rapping about but it wasn’t quite as glorified. He made it autobiographical and had a sense of the difficulties and consequences of that lifestyle, even hinting at shame and regret. A rare talent.
Such a shame he was despatched, I kind of rate Tu-Pac in the same vein, he started out quite gangsta stylee, but he definitely softened and became far more balanced in his mid career.
We’ve discussed Jurassic 5 many a time, they’ll always be the apex wordsmiths for me. Inventive, incredibly funny and they pass the phrasing on like the world’s most fun game of hot potato.
I do love J5, I need to play their stuff through again, it is that time

Jesus man, what a collaboration! How cool of Ed to share the limelight on his own gig, that's pretty cool. But if you make out the guitar work on both the tracks on the first video, Ed is adding so much depth to both those tunes, he should do a remix version with Eminem, that would be awesome.
