Here are some shots of the #vinyl I’ll be posting. Kendrick’s DAMN, Untitled Unmastered + TPAB signed from a marketing project. The #BlackThought and #DangerMouse project in limited edition green and red vinyl and hyper limited edition test pressing (this one will be pricey). Some very limited edition record story day #RTJ vinyl pressings, signed by the besties.

I’ll be pricing accordingly to average on Discogs, plus signed bonus and shipping included.

Come to my vinyl rent party. 💜

A collection of vinyl records arranged on a white sheet. Featured are albums by The Roots, Killer Mike, and Run The Jewels, including signed editions and a Record Store Day exclusive release.

The image features two vinyl records by Kendrick Lamar. The top record displays the album "DAMN." with a close-up of Lamar on the cover, and it is signed. The bottom record features a black-and-white photo of Lamar with a group of people, the TPAB cover.

The image features a vinyl record cover AND the CD single for the "Respiration" by Mos Def and Talib Kweli, collectively known as Black Star. The cover includes blue-tinted photographs and text highlighting the collaboration, as well as mentions of featured artists. It also includes a sticker I received when “street teaming” for the label.

A collection of vinyl albums displayed on a white bedspread. The top album is "DAMN." by Kendrick Lamar, featuring a photo of the artist. Below it is "To Pimp a Butterfly," showcasing a group of people in front of the white house. The last is untitled unmastered, a forest green plain cover.

Going to be selling off some amazing limited edition signed #hiphop #vinyl from #KendrickLamar, #RunTheJewels, #BlackThought and #DangerMouse, #TheRoots, and more. Will be going through #discogs to keep things legit and non-scammy.

Things are still a little funny after the #EatonFires, so I’m selling some of the collection. If you’re interested, let me know. Would love to make sure this collection goes to people I actually like.

Vinyls are up!

Danger Mouse & Black Thought: Cheat Codes
#music #records #DangerMouse #BlackThought

I just realized that two of my favourite albums are from 2022.
Listening to them helped me deal with anger and sadness I felt at times last year.
So recently I figured it is only right to get them on #vinyl as well.

Last Night in the Bittersweet by #PaoloNutini
and
Cheat Codes by #BlackThought and #DangerMouse

If you haven't listened to them yet, I recommend doing so.

#MusicRecommendations #DogsOfTheFediverse
#Doggo

A vinyl album held in hand, still wrapped in plastic. The album cover features a bunch of black and white stylized heads, some of famous people. All have black, red and green circles instead of eyes.
A brownish dog is lying in its bed in the background and looking at the camera.
There is a moving box and some other stuff behind the dog.

Useless quote for 14 Aug:

"You never know what or how something you may consider a throwaway, or something considered a spur-of-the-moment, is going to affect someone else for years to come — or even the rest of their lives."

~ Black Thought (Tariq Trotter), 2021

Well, I spoke too soon. Another one I can't believe I missed last year. And it is 🔥

I love The Roots and Black Thought is one of the greatest rappers to ever walk Earth, so this record he did with El Michels Affair shoulda been a no-brainer. It came out just 10 days after my birthday last year and I somehow heard NOTHING about it until a couple days ago. #NowPlaying

I have probably not listened to too many new albums this year, but of the ones I have, this is easily the best, and I believe it is a classic of the genre:
