Rap recs

[i350125]

So I only own one rap album on vinyl, 36 chambers, and I don't really know where to get more.  Most all hip hop and rap sections in record stores only have the radio promos that have like 5 versions of the same song. Either that or the record I'm looking for came out when vinyl was dead and all I can find is over priced represses, which are still not very common. Anybody have a good outlet for this or am I alone in my desire to blast thug shit?

Most interested in early 90's shit (bonethugs, brothalynch, gravediggaz, souls of mischief, etc)

bonethugs

one of the worst things to ever happen to music.

first EP that came out when Eazy E was co producing and the following first full length are hard as fuck. Everything else is mostly just r n b garbage fuck jamsz.  But you definitely seem to have some opinion...

never heard the first stuff, but i remember that by the time i heard of them they were the biggest group in the u.s. all the kids were talking about how they great they were, and when i checked them out i was mortified with an idiocracy type world view, and the sick feeling that hip-hop was dead.

Creepin On Ah Come Up is cool

I've only found a few early 90s rap LPs for decent prices.  Ultramagnetic MCs...Showbiz and AG...stuff like that...for like 6-9 bucks.

and i assume that after some digging? basically i was wondering if anyone knew of a distro or some shit...? 

Creepin on ah Come up for days and days

Joe also dislikes Biggie Smalls.

The only hip-hop distro I know of is undergroundhiphop.com

Dusty Groove carries a lot of hip-hop, too, but not much of the thuggish shit.

i listened to that creepin song and it's as awful as i imagined.

i like plenty of biggie actually. gimme the loot is the shit! and embarrassingly i got into him through the notorious movie. i don't like any of the smooth stuff he did, but he did the boom bap perfectly when he wanted to.

by the way, the version i know of "loot" is harder than this one:

can you point me to the mix you think i'm looking for?

[Jared]

Glad you've come around on Biggie.  I remember you saying on here a while back that you couldn't hang.  But I dismissed him for the longest time, too, based on most of the shit that was all over the radio and MTV back in the day.

What mix?

[i350125]

Jared i'll check it thanks for the heads up.
jo to each his own.  but btnh is bad ass.

i was digging at a local record shop the other day and found a huge stash of early 90s rap 12" singles, picked out a big stack, NOT FOR SALE.  shitty.  put a blanket over that shit or stick it in the back room.

Always hated that Last Sons of Kypton shit. Used tons of 'em when I was a kid for skeet shooting.

Where can I get the first Westside Connection on vinyl?  TOP WANT!

[Bogey]

Early 90s G-Rap is the best shit. However, I care more about TAPES! Underground or otherwise. 7"s are to PUNK, what TAPES are to Early-90s G-Rap.

[i350125]

better yet,  you got a tape connection? I'd be equally stoked for that format
