Dr. Dre then sought Paak for extensive work on Compton, while the rising Knxwledge produced \"Momma\" on To Pimp a Butterfly and released a Stones Throw album. As Paak and Knxwledge sustained their prominence with separate collaborative and solo work, their activity as a unit gradually escalated to this full-length, released during the fourth quarter of 2016. It includes \"Suede,\" two other cuts from an EP originally released as a download in late 2015, and 40 additional minutes of keenly bent and smudged soul loops. Though Paak is an accomplished musician and bandleader, as seen throughout 2016 in several televised performances to promote Malibu, he sticks strictly to singing and rapping, leaving Knxwledge to handle all the music. Reflective of their collaborative alias, Paak doesn't sound particularly bothered, apart from some irritation related in \"H.A.N.,\" a deflection of leeches and critics, and some serious concerns and confessions within the supremely dreamy \"Khadijah.\" Otherwise, he keeps it lighthearted as an irrepressible rolling stone. Audibly and lyrically coarse, he rarely sounds less than entirely self-satisfied and at least a little amused, whether he's dealing out wisecracking wordplay or quoting J Dilla as he deftly coasts over and darts between the beats. If not quite as substantive as Malibu, this is one of those albums that can be played continuously without risk of depreciation. Knxwledge and Paak are so occupied with other pursuits that this seems destined to take its place in the Stones Throw discography as one of the label's fine twosome one-offs in the manner of Madvillainy and Champion Sound. ~ Andy Kellman\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/21\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 72 hours for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JITRE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: 2LP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Nxworries \/ Knxwledge \/ Anderson Paak","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50558367105255,"sku":"V4KNDY-T5C9-00","price":30.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/nxworries-knxwledge-anderson-paak-yes-lawd-digital-download-card-2-lps_2qhOg.jpg?v=1740498742"},{"product_id":"kendrick-lamar-untitled-unmastered","title":"Kendrick Lamar – Untitled Unmastered","description":"\u003cp\u003eIssued without advance notice 17 days after Kendrick Lamar's riveting 2016 Grammy Awards performance, untitled unmastered. consists of eight demos that are simply numbered and dated. Apart from segments previewed at the Grammys and late-night television appearances, there was no formal promotion. A postscript, it's (artfully) artless in presentation -- not even basic credits appear on the Army green liner card in the compact disc edition -- yet it's almost as lyrically and musically rich as To Pimp a Butterfly. The dates indicate that the majority of the material was made during the sessions for that album, and the presence of many of its players and vocalists is unmistakable. This was assembled with a high level of care that is immediately evident, its components sequenced to foster an easy listen. Track-to-track flow, however, is about the only aspect of this release that can be called smooth. After an intimate spoken intro from Bilal, the set segues into an urgent judgment-day scenario with squealing strings and a resounding bassline as Lamar confronts mortality and extinction with urgent exasperation. He observes terrifying scenes all the while sensing possible relief (\"No more running from world wars,\" \"No more discriminating the poor\"). untitled unmastered. offers this and other variations on the connected themes of societal ills, faith, and survival that drove the output it follows, with Lamar at his best when countering proudly materialistic boasts with ever-striking acknowledgments of the odds perilously weighted against his people. Remarkably, this hits its stride in the second half. The stretch involves a rolling, ornamented retro-contemporary production from Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad (with vocal assists from Bilal and Cee Lo Green), a stitched suite that is alternately stern and humorously off the cuff (featuring Egypt, five-year-old son of Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz, as co-producer and vocalist), and a finale of Thundercat-propelled funk. Even while coasting over the latter's breezy and smacking groove, Lamar fills the space with meaning, detailing a confrontation with sharp quips and stinging reprimands. While Lamar referred to these tracks as demos, and not one of them has the pop-soul appeal of \"These Walls\" or the Black Lives Matter protest-anthem potential of \"Alright,\" untitled unmastered. is no mere offcut dump.

The cover here displays this descent with an updated picture of the rapper's teenage home, first featured on the MM LP of 2000 but now boarded up, and yet this 8 Mile child cares much more about the present than the past, as this vicious, infectious, hilarious triumph is no nostalgia trip, just the 2013 version of Marshall the experienced maverick on a tear, dealing with the current state of events and kicking up dust with his trademark maniac attack while effortlessly juggling his over-40 wisdom with stuff you'd slap a teenager for saying. Key cut \"Rap God\" is the quintessential track as it blasts out homophobic cut-downs and other inexcusable lyrics, because Marshall's the \"Dale Earnhardt of the trailer park,\" but \"I still rap like I'm on my Pharoahe Monch grind,\" and suddenly his Stan Lee-like origin story begins to take shape. Marshall is a super villain so familiar with hate and depression, he's powered by all shades of anger. Be it pissing off the neighbors (rocking the house with a some Beastie Boys and Billy Squier samples on the Rick Rubin-produced party starter \"Bezerk\") or being threatened by critics (and his biggest ever, too, as \"Bad Guy\" revisits the MM LP character \"Stan\" via his revenge-obsessed brother Matthew), it all feeds into his super nova, and it's a unique spectacle when it explodes. It does so gloriously on the stately arena rap anthem \"Survival,\" which injects the listener with martial beats and a pre-game pep talk worth hearing. \"Asshole\" takes the decidedly low road to destruction, slapping girls \"off the mechanical bull, at a tractor pull\" while using controversy to make the front page, then offering the idea that he's \"white America's mirror, so don't feel awkward or weird,\" because there's no sense in leaving the sewer if you don't crawl out enlightened. Love it or hate it, nourishing his same old murder fantasies is what drives Eminem to make the vital music found here, and yet there's room for polished and clever frivolity on the album. The grand \"Love Game\" with Kendrick Lamar whips a Wayne Fontana \"Game of Love\"-sample into a thrilling swagger cut, while \"So Far.\" re-edits Joe Walsh's \"Life's Been Good\" so the Madden and MP3 generation can also understand the sweet irony of mansions filled with Kool-Aid-stained couches. Silly, manipulated voices and all, \"The Monster\" with Rihanna offers insight with its \"I get along with the voices inside my head\" attitude, then \"Headlights\" ups the game and offers mom an apology, referencing his earlier hit \"Cleaning Out My Closet\" and explaining it as an angry and irresponsible moment. Funny thing is, most of the best moments on MM LP2 are just as angry, and just as irresponsible, but like \"Closet,\" this is the tortured soul and self-reliance ninja known as Eminem at his very best. ~ David Jeffries\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/21\/2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eminem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50558369890535,"sku":"ZCYBYR-EK91-00","price":35.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/eminem-the-marshall-mathers-lp2-explicit-content-2-lps_vmaAq.jpg?v=1740670895"},{"product_id":"eminem-recovery-explicit-content-2-lps","title":"Eminem – Recovery [Explicit Content] (2 Lp's)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith Recovery, it becomes obvious that Eminem's richest albums aren't necessarily his most structurally sound, which isn't much of a surprise when considering the rapper's full-on embrace of flaws and contradictions. This lean, mean, bipolar machine began life as Relapse 2, but when Shady decided he wasn't really Shady at the moment, and that he was no longer keen on Relapse -- or the last two albums, as he states on \"Talkin' 2 Myself\" -- it became Marshall Mathers time again, so damn any 11th hour issues. This results in an album where a shameless but killer Michael J. Fox punch line (\"The world will stop spinnin' and Michael J. Fox'll come to a standstill\" from \"Cold Wind\") is followed by a song with another, less effective MJF joke (\"Make like Michael J. Fox in your drawers, playin' with an Etch-A-Sketch\"), although that song is the lurching heavy metal monster \"Won't Back Down\" with P!nk, and it could be used as the lead-in to \"Lose Yourself\" on any ego-boosting mixtape. Ignoring these contradictions, fans can feed on the energy, the renewed sense of purpose, and Marshall doing whatever the hell he wants, up to and including shoehorning a grand, D12-like comedy number (\"W.T.P.,\" which stands for \"White Trash Party\") into this emotionally heavy album. It's fascinating when Em admits \"Hatred was flowin' through my veins, on the verge of goin' insane\/I almost made a song dissin' Lil Wayne\" and then \"Thank God I didn't do it\/I'da had my ass handed to me, and I knew it,\" before sparring with said Weezy on the Haddaway-sampling \"No Love.\" When the recovery-minded \"Going Through Changes\" gets back on the wagon by sampling Black Sabbath's very druggy \"Changes,\" it's a brilliant and layered idea that's executed with poignant lyrics on top. Add the man at his most profound (the gigantic hit \"Not Afraid\") and his most profane (\"You wanna get graphic? We can go the scenic route\/You couldn't make a bulimic puke on a piece of corn and peanut poop\" from \"On Fire\") plus one of thickest lyric booklets out of any of his albums and the fans who really listen are instantly on board. It may be flawed and the rapper's attitude is sometimes one step ahead of his output, but he hasn't sounded this unfiltered and proud since The Marshall Mathers LP, so to hell with refinement -- bring on the hunger and spirit of 8 Mile. ~ David Jeffries\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 07\/27\/2010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eminem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50558370054375,"sku":"8PC8CT-DJ51-00","price":35.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/eminem-recovery-explicit-content-2-lps_btnKs_98289b68-92c2-403f-907b-64359cb8d22a.jpg?v=1740670388"},{"product_id":"snoop-dogg-the-last-meal-explicit-content-2-lps","title":"Snoop Dogg – The Last Meal [Explicit Content] (2 Lp's)","description":"Personnel includes: Snoop Dogg, Bad Azz, Kokane, Eve, Lil HD, Tha Eastsidaz, Suga Free, Butch Cassidy, Master P, Mr. Magic, Mac Minista, Nate Dogg, MC Ren, The Lady Of Rage, Ice Cube (vocals); Clarence Jimmy Roach (guitar, bass); La Tonya Holmes, Mica Fisher, Traci Nelson (background vocals).\r\nProducers include: Dr. Dre, Swizz Beatz, Battlecat, Meech Wells, Timbaland.\r\nThough Ice-T is credited with creating gangsta rap, and the original N.W.A. brought it to the forefront of the pop culture, it was Snoop Dogg that took the genre to the next level with his debut album DOGGYSTYLE.

Recorded at Starlight Sound, Richmond, California. When 2Pac's full-length debut, 2Pacalypse Now, came out in 1991, it didn't have the same immediate impact, didn't instantly throw him into the upper echelons of rap's elite, as Nas', Jay-Z's, or even his biggest rival, Notorious B.I.G.'s did, but the album certainly set him up for his illustrious and sadly short-lived career. Part of its initial problem, what held it back from extensive radio play, is that there's not an obvious single. The closest thing to it, and what ended up being the best-known track from 2Pacalypse Now, is \"Brenda's Got a Baby,\" which discusses teenage pregnancy in true Pac fashion, sympathetically explaining a situation without condoning it, but it doesn't even have a hook, and most of the other pieces follow suit, more poetry than song. The album is significantly more political than the rapper's subsequent releases, showing an intelligent, talented, and angry young man (he was only 20 when it came out) who wanted desperately to express and reveal the problems in the urban black community, from racism to police brutality to the seemingly near impossibility of escaping from the ghetto. He pays tribute to artists like KRS-One, N.W.A, and Public Enemy, all of whom he also considered to be provoking discussion and reaction, but he also has cleanly carved out an image for himself: articulate and smart, not overtly boastful, and concerned about societal problems, both small and large (and though he discusses these less and less as career progresses, he never leaves them behind). Yes, the edges of 2Pacalypse Now can be a bit rough, yes the beats aren't always outstanding, and yes, the MC's flow can be a little choppy, even for him, but it's still a great look at what 2Pac could offer, and a must-have for any fan of his, or hip-hop in general. ~ Marisa Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/11\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"2PAC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50558372315367,"sku":"S15JHL-0S3A-00","price":41.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/2pac-2pacalypse-now-explicit-content-2-lps_g8kvW.jpg?v=1740670346"},{"product_id":"curry-denzel-imperial-lp-explici","title":"CURRY,DENZEL IMPERIAL (LP-EXPLICI","description":"In the years between his 2013 debut LP, Nostalgic 64, and his sophomore set, Imperial, Denzel Curry evolved from a shadowy cult presence into a full-blown, game-ready voice. While hints of this direction were already present on Nostalgic -- a few subtly catchy hooks and a lyrical dexterity ahead of his peers -- Imperial presents Curry as a figure set to dominate his contemporaries with sheer skill and personality. Like Vince Staples and Kendrick Lamar, the Miami-based wordsmith is introspective and can be shockingly dark, with wordy bars compressed with lyrics that easily swerve from violent street-level snapshots to pop culture references aplenty. Take the autobiographical whirlwind \"Story: No Title\" for example: the mid-album highlight contains shout-outs to Fugazi, Kill Bill, Star Wars, Bebe's Kids, and Spongebob, woven through grim ruminations on gun violence and desperation. With his breathless delivery, it can be exhausting, but in an exciting, thrilling way. Some of the best hooks appear out of thin air, bubbling up unexpectedly between aggressive verses and latching onto listeners long after the song has ended (like \"Sick \u0026amp; Tired\" and the Rick Ross joint \"Knotty Head\"). \"ULT\" -- a reworking of his 2013 track \"Ultimate\" -- contains a hypnotic, anthemic chorus that kicks Imperial to life, bleeding into the popping \"Gook.\" The complicated title is, according to Curry, Miami slang for \"odd\" or \"not with in crowd,\" establishing his self-proclaimed position as an outlier and misfit. Considering the state of popular rap at the time of the album's release, Curry's focus on storytelling and clever lyrical wordplay indeed sets him apart from a pack more concerned with onomatopoeia and exclamations. Further distinguishing himself from peers, Curry also pays respect to his forefathers and hip-hop history, dropping a trio of stylistic throwbacks to close Imperial. Going toe to toe with Joey Bada$$ on \"Zenith,\" Curry channels the spirit of the golden era with dense verbal volleys and some old-fashioned turntable scratching. \"Good Night,\" featuring frequent collaborator Twelve'len on the bridge and a star turn from rapper Nell, invokes early-era Kanye production with the uplifting spirit of Kendrick's \"Alright.\" On an album that lurks mostly in the shadows, it's a clear standout. Taut and perfectly paced at ten snapshots, Imperial is a promising and early triumph for Curry, whose versatility and talent have produced one of the best rap albums of 2017. ~ Neil Z.

It began with their glory days as one of hip-hop's greatest acts to years of sometimes bitter estrangement, then hit a high point with the group coming together in 2015 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their debut album People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm. They had a surprise up their sleeve, though. On the night they performed on The Tonight Show, the four original members of the Tribe decided the time was right to hit the studio and make a new album. Repairing relationships was the first step and once that happened, the group (minus Ali Shaheed Muhammad, who was in Los Angeles working on the music to Luke Cage) holed up in Q-Tip's home studio and started working on their comeback, We Got It from Here... Thank You 4 Your Service. Q-Tip held down the producer's chair with a mad scientist's flair, searching near and far through his record collection for inspiration. Tip, Phife, and Jarobi brought rhymes that sounded like they'd been sealed up since the early '90s, then broken open and served fresh. Old collaborators Busta Rhymes and Consequence dropped by to add their skills and energy; new artists like Kendrick Lamar and Anderson Paak, who grew up on the Tribe, dropped by to add verses, and some big names like Andre 3000 and Kanye West jumped in feet first, especially Andre, whose rapid-fire verses with Q-Tip on \"Kids\" provide one of the record's highlights. Jack White adds some of his guitar heroics on a few tracks and Elton John makes a cameo as well, singing the hook of the very odd \"Solid Wall of Sound.\" The sheer number of guests, the long wait since their last album, the shifting tides of hip hop -- all these factors could have led to We Got It being a disappointment. Amazingly, it turns out to be almost the exact opposite. Thanks to Q-Tip's visionary and pleasingly weird production, which draws from golden age hip-hop, old-school jazz, odd samples, dub reggae, and interplanetary electro, the fact the neither he nor Phife have lost even a small percentage of a step, and the seamlessly integrated contributions from the guests (especially Paak on \"Moving Backwards\"), the album is vibrant, intense, and alive.

The legendary Man In Black is now recording for a modern rock label, and is being produced by hard-core rap\/rock guru Rick Rubin--and the results are startling. Spare and stripped to the bone, AMERICAN RECORDINGS is Johnny Cash at his artistic zenith.\nAn original acoustic ballad, the opening \"Delia's Gone\" is a watershed accomplishment. Wryly capturing the art of the death ballad, it presents a thoroughly textured dramatic piece, both horrifying and humorous. The same can be said for Cash's droll reading of Loudon Wainwright's \"The Man Who Could Not Cry.\" An extremely religious man, Johnny includes several songs dealing with themes of redemption, righteousness and spiritual salvation.\nSandwiched between those two songs is a character-rich, eclectic collection of material by writers like Leonard Cohen, British rocker\/ex-son-in-law Nick Lowe, Tom Waits, death-metal god Glenn Danzig, and Cash himself. With his resounding baritone--which is in the best form of his long career--and restricted guitar technique, Cash is the centerpiece, creating a sound that is uniquely American--proud, solitary, nearly broken, yet defiant.\nJohnny Cash, alone with a single guitar, is commanding in his dry, unencumbered intensity.

Back then, they were both hovering around 50, already considered old guys, but Django and Jimmie arrives 32 years after that record, when there's no question that the pair are old-timers. Appropriately enough, mortality is on their minds throughout Django and Jimmie, a record whose very title is taken from Willie and Merle's childhood idols. It's a song that seems like a confession, as does the casual admission that they didn't think they'd \"Live This Long,\" but neither Nelson nor Haggard wrote this, nor the title track or the album's first single, the near-novelty \"It's All Going to Pot.\" These are made-to-order originals by some of the best in the business -- Buddy Cannon, Jamey Johnson, and Ward Davis wrote \"It's All Going to Pot,\" Jimmy Melton and Jeff Prince the title track -- and it shows how producer Cannon has a sharp ear for material, along with a way with a relaxed groove. That comfortable, familial atmosphere is one of the best things about Django and Jimmie and extends far beyond the marquee names; the studio pros, friends, family, and fellow travelers who support Willie and Merle help give this a warm, worn-in feel that's appealing on its own terms. As comforting as the vibe is, it's the singers and their songs that linger. Neither Nelson nor Haggard make any attempt to hide their age -- Willie is a bit thinner than he used to be, Merle a bit growlier -- and their age is affecting when they revisit songs from the past, whether they wrote them or not (Hag's \"Swinging Doors\" is revived, as is the country standard \"Family Bible\" and Bob Dylan's \"Don't Think Twice, It's All Right\"). This nod to the passage of time isn't as explicit as \"Live This Long\" or \"Missing Ol' Johnny Cash,\" where they bring in fellow survivor Bobby Bare to reminisce about their old pal. Often, country memories can get maudlin, but Willie and Merle are filled with good humor here and the pair often strike a delicate balance of fun and sweet melancholy which gives Django and Jimmie a soulful lift. Both singers are aware they're approaching the twilight, but they're not cursing the dark, they're enjoying the sunset. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 07\/24\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Willie Nelson \u0026 Merle Haggard","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50558466326759,"sku":"7XC7X3-S4I2-00","price":36.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/willie-nelson-merle-haggard-django-and-jimmie-2-lps_AtD7b.jpg?v=1740670258"},{"product_id":"kenny-rogers-the-gambler","title":"Kenny Rogers – The Gambler","description":"\u003cp\u003e Personnel: Kenny Rogers (vocals); Billy Sanford, Ray Edenton, Jimmy Capps, Randy Dorman, Jerry Shook, Rick Harper, Tony Joe White, Reggie Young (guitar); Pete Drake (steel guitar); Sheldon Kurland, Byron Bach, George Binkley, Marvin Chantry, Roy Christensen, Carl Gorodetzky, Lennie Haight Steven Smith, Gary Vanosdale, Pamela Vanosdale (strings); Steve Glassmeyer (soprano saxophone, keyboards, background vocals); Gene Golden (keyboards background vocals); Hargus \"Pig\" Robbins, Thomas Cain (keyboards); Edgar Struble (clavinet, ARP synthesizer, congos, background vocals); Jerry Carrigan (drums, percussion); Bobby Daniels, The Jordanaires, Randy Dorman, Mickey Newbury, Bill Medley (background vocals). Recorded at Jack Clement Recording Studio, Nashville, Tennessee. Kenny Rogers was already a star before he released THE GAMBLER in 1978. However, this was the album that established his legend, to the point that the white-bearded singer made several TV movies loosely based on this semi-concept album. In fact, this record's two hit singles are essentially the twin templates of the rest of his career. One, the title track, is a pure country story-song with a moral at the end; the other, the swelling \"She Believes in Me,\" is a lush piece of easy-listening pop, with full orchestral accompaniment, that makes Ray Price's early-'70s singles sound like Jimmie Rodgers.

Williams cranked out numerous other classics over the next five years, revealing in the process a particular gift for heart-wrenching ballads of lost love and broken hearts. He was unquestionably country's biggest star when he died at the age of 29, a victim to drug and alcohol abuse.

Recorded at The Cash Cabin Studio, Hendersonville, Tennessee and The Akademie Mathematique Of Philosophical Sound Research, Los Angeles, California. Includes liner notes by Johnny Cash. \"Solitary Man\" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance. AMERICAN III was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album. The Man in Black shows hints of gray on American III: Solitary Man, his first studio album since being interrupted by a series of serious illnesses in 1997. While the inevitability of aging has been the downfall of many of his contemporaries, Johnny Cash's dark convictions and powerful presence have gone from rough hardwood to solid stone. The stark beauty of his 1994 release American Recordings and the warm, friendly collaborations on 1996's Unchained combine to create two distinct moods: one of living-room jam sessions with invited friends, and another of stark solo (and near-solo) songs highlighting Cash's years and stories. Partnering once again with Tom Petty, the two join together on Petty's own \"I Won't Back Down\" and the Neil Diamond-penned title track. Cash also lays his lonesome hands on U2's \"One\" and reunites with fellow outlaw Merle Haggard on the stubborn \"I'm Leavin' Now.\" These duets and well-known covers show an inviting side of Johnny Cash. But the real highlights of the album are those reminiscent of his American Recordings songs; they feature just the man and his guitar, with nothing else to clutter the story. The creaks and despair of the vaudeville song \"Nobody\" tell of a man who has become hardened by his solitude, while the Palace hymn \"I See a Darkness\" soars with the passion of a thousand gospel choirs, even though there are only two men singing. Although at times it is difficult to hear past Tom Petty's growl or Sheryl Crow's young harmonies in the more popular songs Cash covers, these obscure prison songs and country ballads sound as honest and heartfelt as his own compositions. At age 68, his warm baritone may waver but his passion never does. ~ Zac Johnson\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 03\/03\/2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Johnny Cash","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50558470455527,"sku":"GT3RKK-RH81-0U","price":28.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/johnny-cash-american-iii-solp_cIOyp.jpg?v=1740670972"},{"product_id":"chappell-roan-the-rise-and-fall-of-a-midwest-princess-2-lp","title":"Chappell Roan – The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess [2 LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eDescription Chappell Roan - \"The Rise And Fall Of A Midwest Princess\" - Bold pop hooks, sex positivity, honest songwriting and a heavy dose of glitter make up the world of Chappell Roan, the next multi-faceted force in pop music.

Not only did they translate ZABA's aloof ambient pop for ever-bigger audiences, the stories they heard from people they met on the road inspired How to Be a Human Being, a more ambitious, more engaged, and more engaging follow-up that makes a strong case for interacting with the world instead of hiding in a bedroom making beats. Written within weeks of finishing the tour, How to Be a Human Being sprung from an intensive creative process that involved imagining its characters, down to their favorite foods and hobbies, and recruiting photographer Neil Krug to bring its visuals to life. Despite this attention to detail, these character studies aren't especially literal. Only a handful of songs, like the wannabe-populated \"The Other Side of Paradise,\" offer much in the way of narrative or world-building. Instead, Glass Animals focus on a very human mix of emotions, particularly on the album's bookends: \"Life Itself\"'s protagonist describes himself as \"Northern Camden's own Flash Gordon,\" capturing the innocent swagger of starting out in a way that feels equally endearing and ridiculous, while \"Agnes\" records someone's final moments with bittersweet majesty. Though How to Be a Human Being' lyrics are more straightforward than ZABA's abstracts musings, Glass Animals' vivid music does more to convey their characters. They use their animated arrangements more purposefully than they did before, even though the rippling \"Cane Shuga\" feels like the bridge between this album and their debut. The different guises allow the band new nuances: \"Take a Slice\" and \"Poplar St\" are two of their sexiest songs, but the former exudes seductive femininity, the latter a masculine strut. Elsewhere, the R\u0026amp;B and hip-hop influences that percolated through ZABA finally bubble to the surface. \"Pork Soda\" plays like a distant cousin of Blackstreet's \"No Diggity,\" while \"Season 2, Episode 3,\" a love song to someone whiling her life away in front of the tube, is a mashup of R\u0026amp;B and chiptune that makes it one of the album's most adorably bittersweet moments. Indeed, despite its high-concept origins, the album doesn't take itself too seriously, and its vignettes are more cheerful than gritty: \"Youth\"'s tale of motherly nostalgia and loss is one of the album's most joyous-sounding songs. How to Be a Human Being's sense of wonder and joie de vivre feels as instructive to Glass Animals as their listeners, and their willingness to try anything results in some truly great moments. ~ Heather Phares\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 8\/26\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Glass Animals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50624731414759,"sku":"FV917U-2SWU-00","price":28.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/glass-animals-how-to-be-a-human-being-explicit-content_SpBtA.jpg?v=1740503689"},{"product_id":"radiohead-amnesiac-2-lps","title":"Radiohead – Amnesiac (2 Lp's)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Limited Edition of AMNESIAC includes a clothbound book with embossed logo and a 32-page full color booklet.

This second helping from the sessions that produced the preceding KID A will probably strike close listeners as a bit more structured, though it'll be difficult to determine whether that's simply because the peregrinations of the last album have prepared them for the trips to the outer limits taken here. Those expecting a U2-like return to tuneful, anthemic guitar-rock will have their hopes dashed upon a rock of colorful electronic experimentation and moody, studio-enhanced madness. The piano-based \"Pyramid Song\" and the Martian-gospel-choir ballad \"You and Whose Army?\" might placate verse-chorus-verse traditionalists slightly, but the sampler-in-a-trash-compactor \"Pulk\/Pull Revolving Doors\" and the pointillistic ambience of \"Hunting Bears\" attest to Radiohead's continued nonconformist tendencies. AMNESIAC opens with the claustrophobic, synth-bedecked \"Packt Like Sardines in a Crushd Tin Box\" and closes with the Dixieland funeral march \"Life in a Glass House.\" Along the way, the band engages in the kind of fearless, pretension-risking (but highly successful) sonic experimentation that made a cultural artifact out of SGT.

Lorde, the preternaturally talented New Zealand singer\/songwriter who became an international sensation at the age of 17, knows how to execute not only songwriting and public narrative but also a melding of the two. Melodrama, arriving nearly four long years after her 2013 debut, picks up the thread left hanging on Pure Heroine, presenting Lorde as a young woman, not a sullen teenager. Tonally and thematically, it's a considerable shift from Pure Heroine, and Melodrama feels different musically too, thanks in part to Lorde's decision to collaborate with Jack Antonoff, the leader of Fun. and Bleachers who has been nearly omnipresent in 2010s pop\/rock. Antonoff's steely signatures -- a reliance on retro synths, a sheen so glassy it glares -- are all over the place on Melodrama but Lorde is unquestionably the auteur of the album, not just because the songs tease at autobiography but because of how it builds upon Pure Heroine. Lorde retains her bookish brooding, but Melodrama isn't monochromatic. \"Green Light\" opens the proceedings with a genuine sense of exuberance and it's an emotion she returns to often, sometimes reveling in its joy, sometimes adding an undercurrent of melancholy. Sadness bubbles to the surface on occasion, as it does on the stark \"Liability,\" and so does Lorde's penchant for blunt literalism -- \"Writer in the Dark,\" where our narrator sings \"bet you rue the day you kissed a writer in the dark,\" thereby suggesting all of her songs are some kind of autobiography -- but these traits don't occupy the heart of the album. Instead, Lorde is embracing all the possibilities the world has to offer but then retreating to the confines of home, so she can process everything she's experienced. This balance between discovery and reflection gives Melodrama a tension, but the addition of genuine, giddy pleasure -- evident on the neon pulse of \"Homemade Dynamite\" and \"Supercut\" -- isn't merely a progression for Lorde, it's what gives the album multiple dimensions. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 04\/06\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lorde","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50624800751847,"sku":"CCUXJT-TZ8V-00","price":30.54,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/Lorde-Melodrama_5pOvS.jpg?v=1740503694"},{"product_id":"green-day-21st-century-breakdown","title":"Green Day – 21ST CENTURY BREAKDOWN","description":"\u003cp\u003eStill enamored of the concept of the concept album more than four years after AMERICAN IDIOT, Green Day unveiled its rock-opera sequel, 21ST CENTURY BREAKDOWN, in 2009. Like its predecessor, BREAKDOWN wholeheartedly embraces the iconic punk-pop act's shift to a stadium-filling sound, while also remaining loyal to the San Francisco-based trio's progressive sociopolitical outlook. Even with a president in the White House that outspoken frontman Billie Joe Armstrong supports, he still finds plenty to rail against, with much of BREAKDOWN alluding to the earlier Bush years of the new millennium, particularly the surging, Queen-like title track. Aiding Armstrong and his comrades in their sonic attack against conservative authority is renowned producer (and Garbage member) Butch Vig, best known for helming Nirvana's NEVERMIND. Completely in sync with Green Day's grand vision, Vig helps to create the huge spaces for the band to construct their anthems, as best heard on the resonant anti-war tune \"21 Guns.\" Unabashedly unsubtle and lifted by passionate restlessness, BREAKDOWN succeeds as AMERICAN IDIOT Mark II, proving that Green Day has no intention of scaling back its intriguingly ambitious approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 06\/16\/2009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Green Day","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50624809730279,"sku":"MU0B8P-SHDU-00","price":35.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/green-day-21st-century-breakdown_0IKxy.jpg?v=1740670115"},{"product_id":"eazy-e-eazy-duz-it-explicit-content","title":"Eazy-e – Eazy-Duz-It [Explicit Content]","description":"\u003cp\u003ePersonnel: Eazy-E, M.C.

Recorded at Audio Achievements, Torrance, California. Released only a month after Straight Outta Compton (1988), Eazy-Duz-It was the first N.W.A spin-off album. Years before Ice Cube went solo with Amerikkka's Most Wanted (1990), before Dr. Dre changed the rap game with The Chronic (1992), before MC Ren struggled to establish himself with Shock of the Hour (1993), and before Yella simply fell into obscurity, Eazy-E rose to immediate superstar status with this solo debut. It's no wonder why, for the album plays like a humorous, self-centered twist on Straight Outta Compton with Eazy-E, the most charismatic member of N.W.A, front and center while his associates are busy behind the scenes, producing the beats and writing the songs. In terms of production, Dr. Dre and Yella meld together P-Funk, Def Jam-style hip-hop, and the leftover electro sounds of mid-'80s Los Angeles, creating a dense, funky, and thoroughly unique style of their own. In terms of songwriting, the D.O.C., Ice Cube, and MC Ren are each credited; plus, Ren performs raps of his own on five of the 12 songs. The collaborative nature of the music -- with Dre and Yella producing; the D.O.C., Ice Cube, and MC Ren writing the songs; MC Ren featured as a guest on half of them; and Eazy-E performing -- fortunately makes Eazy-Duz-It more of an N.W.A effort than a true solo album. This is fortunate because as charismatic as he may be, Eazy-E isn't an especially gifted MC. He's at his best here when he's cracking wise and also when he's overshadowed by Dr. Dre's productions, particularly on the four-song sequence of \"Eazy Duz It,\" \"We Want Eazy,\" \"Eazy-er Said Than Dunn,\" and \"Radio\" -- all heavily produced songs with layers upon layers of samples and beats competing with Eazy-E's rhymes for attention. Straight Outta Compton is no doubt the more revolutionary album, yet Eazy-Duz-It is a great companion, showcasing N.W.A's sense of humor and, despite the often violent subject matter, casting them in a lighter, more humorous mood. When Eazy-E would return with a second solo release, 5150 Home 4 tha Sick, his N.W.A associates would be M.I.A. and the difference would be stark. ~ Jason Birchmeier\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 9\/03\/2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Eazy-e","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50624810156263,"sku":"U8PKMK-LTW3-46","price":28.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/eazy-e-eazy-duz-it-explicit-content_kDBYd.jpg?v=1740671115"},{"product_id":"childish-gambino-camp","title":"Childish Gambino – CAMP","description":"In the time before this wonderful album named Camp existed, the \"actors who rap\" proposition would have been all red flags. Brian Austin Green, Mr. T, Joaquin Phoenix, and many others are on the \"cons\" list, while the \"pros\" would have been Drake (barely counts, unless Degrassi: The Next Generation was your thing) and maybe AVN award-winner Dirt Nasty. These were the horrible odds Community star and comedy writer Donald Glover was up against when he took the Internet's Wu-Tang Name Generator to heart and became rapper Childish Gambino, but anyone who right-clicked on one of his 2010\/2011 mixtapes can tell you, he beat those odds, and with Camp, indie rap fans won the Lotto. The gloriously different and wonderfully inspired rhymes that downloaders experienced are here once more, and Gambino's style is still that attractive blend of heartfelt and humorous or, in a nutshell, I-just-wasn't-made-for-these-times-and-yet-I-love-the-Internet with \"That ain't even ironic bitch\/I love Rugrats!\" being a quintessential punch line\/decree. He's got that Kanye-sized swagger on lock too, as the triumphant \"All the Shine\" struts with vibrant colors, and he's just as complicated, as the track slowly descends into self-doubt and earth tones before it fades into the soft and meek \"Letter Home,\" all of it adding up to some kind of bizarre and ambitious bipolar backpacker suite. Nerdy wonders and insightful laughs are the reasons you want to visit Camp Gambino, but you'll stay for the lush, surprisingly large production from Glover and Ludwig G?ransson, along with the thrill of untangling it all for hours on end, separating the incredibly cool moments from the touching ones and figuring out how this \"actor who raps\" packaged it all sensibly in a concept album about summer camp that doubles as his showcase debut. Try it and be stunned or submit to it and be satiated; Camp is like the Drake, Cudi, and Kweli camps all offered their best, but it's really just Glover and his overwhelming bundle of talent, taking indie hip-hop to new levels after spending the day working alongside Chevy Chase.

Released on its maker's 32nd birthday, three days before he passed away, the album has a resonance deeper than anyone could've hoped for or even imagined. Some who were close to Dilla have said that there are hidden messages in the samples, the track titles, and who knows where else. It's impossible not to speculate about some things, like the track titled \"Don't Cry,\" the looped \"broken and blue\" from a version of \"Walk on By,\" the presence of Eddie Kendricks singing \"My people, hold on,\" or the fact that there are 31 tracks, a possible signal that Dilla survived a little longer than he expected. Then again, for every possible message, there are two or three elements that could've been designed to throw any analysis off its trail. After all, if there's one single image that the disc brings to mind, it's that of Dilla goofing off, having fun with some of his favorite records, and messing with some heads in the process. (And you could probably make the album's title out to be a metaphor for the circle of life, but sometimes a donut is just a donut.) Armed with sources that are either known to novice sample spotters or only the most seasoned diggers -- surprisingly, the former greatly outweighs the latter -- Dilla's also just as likely to leave his samples barely touched as he is to render them unrecognizable. It's fitting that Motown echoes, a predominant theme, are often felt, from the use of Dionne Warwick's Holland-Dozier-Holland-written \"You're Gonna Need Me\" (on \"Stop\"), to the shifting waves of percussion plucked from Kendricks' \"People... Hold On\" (on \"People\"), to the Stevie-like piano licks within Kool \u0026amp; the Gang's \"The Fruitman\" (\"The Diff'rence\"). Most of the tracks fall into the 60-90 second range. It's easy to be overwhelmed, or even put off, by the rapid-fire sequence, but it's astounding how so many of the sketches leave an immediate impression. By the third or fourth listen, what initially came across as a haphazard stream of slapped-together fragments begins to take the shape of a 44-minute suite filled with wistful joy. Like everything else Dilla has ever done, Donuts is not defining; in fact, elements of its approach bare the apparent influence of Jaylib collaborator Madlib. His mode has always been too slippery and restlessly progressive to be equated with any one track or album, but Donuts just might be the one release that best reflects his personality. ~ Andy Kellman\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 72 hours for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JITRE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: 2LP w\/ DL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/04\/2011\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"J Dilla","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50624849936615,"sku":"DJCCZP-6T8K-00","price":31.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/j-dilla-donuts_NxhHz.jpg?v=1740670970"},{"product_id":"sza-sos","title":"SZA – SOS","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSOS\u003c\/em\u003e is the second studio album from GRAMMY award winning singer SZA, and the follow up to 2017's major label debut album \u003cem\u003eCtrl.\u003c\/em\u003e The genre-blending album contains elements of pop, R\u0026amp;B, soft-rock, gospel, and hip-hop.

The U.S. audience saw the release of Louder Than Bombs, which collected 24 assorted tracks. British fans were handed The World Won't Listen, with 16 tracks. Most ardent fans of the band obviously gobbled up both releases. The 13 shared tracks across the two albums are \"Panic,\" \"Ask,\" \"London,\" \"Shakespeare's Sister,\" \"Shoplifters of the World Unite,\" \"Asleep,\" \"Unloveable,\" \"Half a Person,\" \"Stretch Out and Wait,\" \"Golden Lights,\" \"Oscillate Wildly,\" \"You Just Haven't Earned It Yet, Baby,\" and \"Rubber Ring.\" That means there are three tracks here that aren't included on Louder Than Bombs, and there are 11 tracks on Louder Than Bombs that aren't included here. Going into the merits of the tracks isn't necessary; there's not a clunker to be found in the Smiths's discography. The funny, annoying, and\/or incredible thing about both the Smiths and Morrissey is that so many songs (singles or B-sides) make appearances on so many different albums. Any die-hard fan of the Smiths is going to want or need both albums, just to have a complete collection of releases (not songs). Even then, there's going to be much repetition across the actual full-length albums and best-of collections. If an album called \"The Bombs Won't Listen\" or \"Louder Than the World\" was to be released tomorrow, there'd be an audience for it; granted, it would be a smaller audience than in the heyday of the Smiths. Many people consider the Morrissey\/Marr duo to be the last great songwriting team; any release by the Smiths is indispensable to this audience. A casual fan in the U.S. might due well to simply pick up Louder Than Bombs, since The World Won't Listen's additional tracks (\"Bigmouth Strikes Again,\" \"There Is a Light That Never Goes Out,\" \"The Boy With the Thorn in His Side,\" and \"That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore\") are all found on the major, full-length releases of the band, thus paying for the price of the import might not be

Rolling Stone en Español wrote, “It’s a brave record… Genres are a thing of the past; there’s room for everything here… what modern music should be: art and flavor, dembow, champeta, flamenco, bachata, hip-hop, piano melodies… …MOTOMAMI feels like a freight train from the future, hurtling right at us at full speed and no brakes.

Artists from Kid Cudi to A$AP Mob were coming at the genre from all sorts of new angles, but with their feet firmly in the rap camp; then producer Travis Scott came along, sounding like Chief Keef but with a much broader brush, offering an attractive version of acid rap that landed him on Kanye West's GOOD Music label with a debut album that's so 2015 it features the ultra-hip trifecta of Future, the Weeknd, and Justin Bieber. Make those three a Venn diagram and Scott is the man in the middle, wonderfully weird and as stylish-sounding as the first two, and yet with a slick appeal that crosses over like Bieber, which is the biggest problem for detractors: it's all for show with no filling. Still, with lines like \"Always kept my city on me like it was a Swatch\" and \"My dick longer than a Pringle box\" over beats that honor and match edgy acts like Death Grips (the raw \"Piss on Your Grave\" featuring Kanye West) and Future (who appears alongside 2 Chainz on the sprawling highlight \"3500\"), Rodeo is an absurd wonder that thankfully works. That's up to and including Bieber, Young Thug, and Scott's bedroom brain-burner \"Maria I'm Drunk,\" which is the ultra sheen of Taylor Swift with the lust of Miguel experienced via shrooms. \"Wasted\" sounds like Juicy J did an album for Stones Throw, \"Flying High\" with Toro y Moi borrows some of Slave's \"Slide\" so the indie party people get an anthem, then the very big \"90210\" travels across decades' worth of film soundtrack styles while sampling the late Pimp C as T.I. narrates. Weird that T.I. doesn't rap, and weirder still that Scott barely produces on this album, handing it over to returning and like-minded collaborators like Metro Boomin, Ultra$ound, and Mike Dean. His executive producer credit, however, is on point as the aesthetics of his early work are all here, and with \"We designed our love, around these drugs\" being the album's most profound lyrical moment, he may not be Nas, but he may be Warhol. As Kanye and Gaga try to bridge the gap between pop and art, this artist thrives in the chasm. Like Warhol said, \"I love plastic, I want to be plastic,\" and with Rodeo, Travis Scott becomes a designer drug. ~ David Jeffries\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 11\/06\/2015\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Travis Scott","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50631935983847,"sku":"ZRTEZX-I8L9-00","price":30.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/travis-scott-rodeo-explicit-content-150-gram-vinyl-download-insert-2-lps_DqHWu.jpg?v=1740498735"},{"product_id":"tyler-the-creator-flower-boy","title":"Tyler The Creator – Flower Boy","description":"\u003cp\u003eProclaiming himself as Flower Boy T with that gravelly voice and irascible disposition befitting a proprietor of a rust-belt collision shop, Tyler, The Creator thrives on his paradoxical character and daily life throughout his self-produced fourth solo album. Despite the coarseness of its alternate title, Scum Fuck Flower Boy, this is easily the least vulgar Tyler release. It's also the most radiant one, akin to a modern-day N.E.R.D. album -- marching-band drums, curlicue strings and synthesizers, candy-coated melodies galore -- filled with purpose, lacking in aimless frivolity. This is a major creative advancement, no slapdash repository of provocations and whims. Going by the preceding lead double A-side, the album's essence was impossible to forecast. There was little indication from the pairing of the bare-knuckled blast \"Who Dat Boy\" with \"911\/Mr. Lonely,\" where a longing Tyler, over a supreme dazed groove, sees adoring fans and fast cars -- the latter self-effacingly acknowledged elsewhere as a recurring album theme -- as inadequate fill-ins for one-on-one time. The album contains another hard-hitting track in the form of \"I Ain't Got Time!,\" with the rhymes ranging from routine threats to singular declarations (\"Next line will have 'em like 'Whoa'\/I been kissing white boys since 2004\"), but its makeup is typified more by \"911\" and the similarly lively \"Find Your Wings,\" off the preceding Cherry Bomb. Even with combination bleacher-stomping\/trunk-rattling drums and an F-bomb, \"See You Again\" is a positively kaleidoscopic love song, tricked out with laser zaps, xylophones, strings, horns, and sugary lines like \"I'd give up my bakery to have a piece of your pie.\" On \"Pothole,\" a low-profile standout, Tyler approaches driving as a metaphor for life, laments his solitude and vehicular escapism, but then proudly asserts his lone-wolf status over the sheep: \"I'd rather drown in a pool by myself than fuck with they fleece.\" While most of these songs are rife with anxiety and isolation, the open-hearted lyricism and wide-scoped productions, put together by an artist in peak form, make them immensely engrossing. Frank Ocean, Pharrell Williams, Kali Uchis, Syd, and Estelle are among 11 supporting cast members, not one of whom is inessential to the whole. ~ Andy Kellman\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 12\/01\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: DDD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tyler The Creator","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50631936409831,"sku":"6PGOTQ-JHS9-00","price":30.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/flower-boy_I3a84.jpg?v=1740497710"},{"product_id":"the-cure-three-imaginary-boys-180-gram-vinyl","title":"The Cure – Three Imaginary Boys (180 Gram Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 2004 US release of THREE IMAGINARY BOYS was a momentous event for stateside Cure fans, as it marked the first time the band's 1979 debut album had ever been available on CD in America. Equally enticing is the bonus disc containing '77-'79 demos, live tracks, and other rarities. The Cure's first US release was 1980's BOYS DON'T CRY, which replaced a number of TIB's tracks with previously non-LP singles, presenting a significantly different picture of the band. Far from the cloudy, effects-drenched goth-pop sound that later became its trademark, the Cure is in stripped-down mode here, delivering fairly straight-ahead post-punk tunes suggestive of a less angst-ridden Joy Division or a funkless Gang of Four. The stark, rhythm-guitar-dominated sound makes excellent use of space, suggesting a familiarity with dub that's confirmed by the reggae-tinged \"Meat Hook\" (one of the tracks left off BOYS DON'T CRY). The rarities disc completes the picture, showing the earliest developmental stages of the band and presenting staples such as \"Boys Don't Cry\" and \"10:15 Saturday Night\" in embryonic form.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Sellers: Top Seller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/06\/2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Cure","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50631950074087,"sku":"GO3Q9A-7AN6-00","price":25.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/the-cure-three-imaginary-boys-180-gram-vinyl_kBCWr_f1e769bb-a4f3-4257-b0a9-bd713c565766.jpg?v=1740670095"},{"product_id":"earl-sweatshirt-feet-of-clay-explicit-content","title":"Earl Sweatshirt – Feet Of Clay [Explicit Content]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFeet Of Clay [Explicit Content] is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from Earl Sweatshirt\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 07\/10\/2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Earl Sweatshirt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50631950336231,"sku":"NZ0KLY-KX46-O0","price":25.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/earl-sweatshirt-feet-of-clay-explicit-content_ndKlv.jpg?v=1740670372"},{"product_id":"justin-timberlake-futuresex-love-ex","title":"Justin Timberlake – FUTURESEX\/LOVE (EX)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMusic critics and highbrow listeners may look down their nose at Justin Timberlake, doubting that the celebrated former N'Sync leader is good for more than light, frothy dance-pop. Timberlakes's sophomore effort, FUTURESEX\/LOVESOUNDS, should make both camps rethink that stance. While the album certainly sets out to entertain, it's also full of ambitious, well-constructed grooves that prove the superstar is serious about getting down and dirty. The album steps up the Michael Jackson-influenced sound of JUSTIFIED by delving deeper into club music, hip-hop, and funk, creating a bumping, writhing soundtrack for a set of songs unabashedly about sex. Timberlake spared no expense recruiting some of the best producers on the scene. Beatmaker extraordinaire Timbaland is a primary collaborator, and his experimental stutter-funk landscapes make for the album's best moments (the title track, for example, or the spare, driving lead-off single \"Sexyback\"). Early Prince is a major touchstone for much of the disc, but Timberlake also draws on rolling, Dirty South jams (\"Chop Me Up\") and smooth, urban-contemporary loverman R\u0026amp;B (\"My Love\"). Its obsession with the bedroom notwithstanding, FUTURESEX\/LOVESOUNDS shows Timberlake moving toward an exciting musical maturity.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Release Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/3\/2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Justin Timberlake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50631950467303,"sku":"QSBD6G-TZ0M-00","price":30.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/Justin-Timberlake-FUTURESEXLOVE-EX_P9dKW.jpg?v=1740670149"},{"product_id":"pink-floyd-the-best-of-pink-floyd-a-foot-in-the-door","title":"Pink Floyd – The Best of Pink Floyd: A Foot in the Door","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Best of Pink Floyd: A Foot in the Door is a Records \u0026amp; LPs from Pink Floyd\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/28\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pink Floyd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50711326589159,"sku":"JZ4LK5-ZGPJ-NY","price":43.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/pink-floyd-the-best-of-pink-floyd-a-foot-in-the-door_QpiNU.jpg?v=1740670117"},{"product_id":"beastie-boys-pauls-boutique","title":"Beastie Boys – Paul's Boutique","description":"\u003cp\u003eBeastie Boys | Paul's Boutique | Vinyl | 10\/4\/2019\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 10\/4\/2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Beastie Boys","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50711327375591,"sku":"ATACXH-4B71-FF","price":43.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/beastie-boys-pauls-boutique_UKKRD.jpg?v=1740670300"},{"product_id":"sublime-robbin-the-hood-ex","title":"Sublime ROBBIN' THE HOOD (EX","description":"Sublime: Brad Nowell (vocals, programming); Eric Wilson (bass); Bud (drums); Miguel, Marshall, Opie, Greg, Kelly.\nPieced together rather quickly, Robbin' the Hood wasn't really intended to be the follow-up to Sublime's debut, 40oz. to Freedom, but what is shocking is how much better the record is than its predecessor. Boasting a wider range of influences -- including elements of reggae and old-school hip-hop -- the record is a loose, infectious blend of styles that rides along on its own sense of energy.

Inspired by the Frustrated Artist Tour that found this Texan crisscrossing the world in 2002, Badu uses a very groove-oriented and loosely defined approach towards these songs, thanks to the collaborative skills of her fellow members in the Freakquency team--James Poyser, Rashad \"Ringo\" Smith, and RC Williams.\r\nThe results range from the light and sensual flow of \"Back in the Day,\" (featuring some crisp guitar licks by Lenny Kravitz) to \"Bump It\" with its mix of sprinkled in hip-hop beats, lightly layered synths, and a sweet mix of harmonies by Zap Mama and Karon Wheeler. Along the way, Badu must have been digging in the crates for inspiration, because she includes a hypnotic take on Donald Byrd's 1975 recording \"Think Twice\" (featuring tasty playing by trumpeter Roy Hargrove). Badu also serves up a remix of the Grammy-winning \"Love of My Life Worldwide,\" built on the foundation of Sequence's 1979 hit \"Funk You Up,\" which features cameos by Queen Latifah, Bahamadia, Badu alter-ego MC Apples, and Angie Stone (the original Angie B of Sequence).\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/16\/2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Erykah Badu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50711328653543,"sku":"LWZ5YU-WNK2-1C","price":28.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/erykah-badu-worldwide-underground_FN2Li.jpg?v=1740670282"},{"product_id":"bad-religion-all-ages","title":"Bad Religion – All Ages","description":"TracksCredits\r\n1 I Want to Conquer the World\r\n2 Do What You Want\r\n3 You Are (The Government)\r\n4 Modern Man\r\n5 We're Only Gonna Die\r\n6 Answer\r\n7 Flat Earth Society\r\n8 Against the Grain\r\n9 Generator\r\n10 Anesthesia\r\n11 Suffer\r\n12 Faith Alone\r\n13 No Control\r\n14 21st Century (Digital Boy)\r\n15 Atomic Garden\r\n16 No Direction\r\n17 Automatic Man\r\n18 Change of Ideas\r\n19 Sanity\r\n20 Walk Away\r\n21 Best for You\r\n22 F*** Armageddon...

From its initial exhortation to \"clap your hands everybody,\" its implicit call to chant the chorus, and its simple yet undeniably inviting guitar riff and conga drum madness, along with Sugarhill Gang's \"Rapper's Delight\" Blow's landmark single \"The Breaks\" helped introduce this rapidly growing underground style to a larger nation of souls who wanted to dance the night away.\nHowever Kurtis Blow wasn't just 'The Breaks\"; KURTIS BLOW, the eponymous album fashioned around the hit, contains track after track of early hip-hop splendor. The introduction \"Rappin' Blow (Part 2)\" is the perfect showcase for his deceptively simple and engaging rhyming style. Despite Blow's general association with party songs, heady notions aren't ignored, such as \"Hard Times,\" a smoothed-out inspirational jam about overcoming obstacles. Keep an eye out also for \"All I Want in This World,\" where he actually croons rather ably on perhaps the original rapper's love ode.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/07\/18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/07\/18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: DDD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: DDD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 09\/07\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kurtis Blow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50713035309287,"sku":"DS2TUN-O18M-PZ","price":30.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/kurtis-blow-kurtis-blow_mldXY_cd86e17d-a62d-4f2c-9d0b-dd57054ebe83.jpg?v=1740671034"},{"product_id":"david-bowie-beauty-beast","title":"David Bowie – BEAUTY \u0026 BEAST","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrand New Sealed | David Bowie | Beauty \u0026amp; Beast | Vinyl | Release Date: 01\/05\/2018\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Electronic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/05\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 01\/05\/2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Date: n\/a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"David Bowie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50713035833575,"sku":"HD6L1S-2NHK-8P","price":20.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/6212\/7591\/files\/david-bowie-beauty-beast_uH00G.jpg?v=1740671039"},{"product_id":"lil-wayne-tha-carter-iii-vol-1-explicit-content-2-lps","title":"Lil Wayne – Tha Carter III, Vol. 1 [Explicit Content] (2 Lp's)","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlthough his first studio album in three years has been long-awaited and repeatedly delayed, Lil Wayne has been anything but absent.

During a tumultuous period following 2016's The Life of Pablo, he garnered as much attention for headline controversy as for his music: he was hospitalized for stress and exhaustion following the cancellation of his Saint Pablo tour, later revealing a struggle with opioid addiction, and a disastrous pre-album promotion cycle was packed with provocative political proclamations. West's world seemed to be spiraling out of control. As the lines between public life and studio recordings blurred, the two became increasingly inextricable, culminating with his complicated eighth effort, Ye. While Pablo delved into the darker corners of fame and family, Ye is messier and more uncomfortable, especially when heard in the context of his high-profile outbursts preceding its release. West places mental health at the center, complicating his usual bravado. On the opening \"I Thought About Killing You,\" West delivers a stream-of-consciousness confessional about morality, murder, and suicide from an imaginary therapist's office sofa. Designed to shock, it feels like an interlude, not a full-fledged song. Ye improves from there, as West switches gears on \"Yikes,\" dropping the album's first delectable beat and matching it with an equally addictive flow. It recalls West's early spirit, an enticement for audiences to keep listening. When he boasts, \"That's my bipolar shit\/That's my superpower,\" he embraces his issues and defies challengers with self-affirmation. For all the awkward times when West forces listeners to confront his internal struggles, Ye has moments of clarity. \"Ghost Town\" shines, serving as an appetizer to the superior Kid Cudi collaboration Kids See Ghosts that arrived the week after Ye. Along with Cudi and breakthrough newcomer 070 Shake, West offers a glimmer of hope, facing failure and reigniting optimism and personal acceptance by proclaiming, \"And nothing hurts anymore\/I feel kinda free.\" \"Wouldn't Leave\" is a touching ode to his wife's loyalty, while \"No Mistakes\" maintains tenderness, recalling early-2000s Kanye with its uplifting, old-school production. The reflective \"Violent Crimes,\" directed toward his daughters, is an effort to atone for his past misogyny, but closes Ye with a whimper, confusing its message with a voicemail cameo from Nicki Minaj. Ye can feel uneven, sometimes boring, and more indulgent than usual, but it's a fascinating peek into West's psyche. Like Pablo, Ye may be firmly tied to its surrounding public drama, yet it's a rough-hewn, vital piece to the puzzle for those still willing to humor West and his many demons. Pushing the mental health discussion into such a public space, he challenges listeners' limits while leaving himself vulnerable for judgment. Taken as a snapshot of his state of mind at the time -- and in relation to the adjacent GOOD Music releases recorded simultaneously during the Wyoming sessions -- Ye offers a bittersweet reflection of its creator, who is confused, searching, and at a crossroads. ~ Neil Z.
