PRESSED ON SILVER SMOKE COLORED VINYL

This album is part of Now-Again’s ongoing reissue series spotlighting Memphis’s lo-fi, cassette-driven rap scene—one that helped shape the sound of Southern hip hop for decades to come. These long-lost records were rarely heard outside the region, but their influence echoes in today’s rap landscape. Until now, most have only been available via bootlegs or rare tapes.

Each LP includes a 12-page oversized booklet with extensive liner notes by Torii MacAdams, telling the story of Memphis rap from the city’s roots to the DIY shops that sold these underground gems over the counter.

As Skinny Pimp puts it:
“This keeps the legacy rolling. Your name, your reputation—you guard it with everything. And this is keeping it out, and alive, in the world… Forever.”

First time on vinyl. Essential for Memphis rap heads and hip hop archivists alike.
