Records players are cheap, plentiful and easy to come by. I understand if you're living in a shelter or your car; but if you can get yourself a Nintendo Switch, an IPad, a PS4 and a laptop, there is no reason why such a self-respecting Hip-Hop head shouldn't have a record player. Trust me, there's no reason to be intimidated by the various models, features, etc. Unless you're a hardcore DJ, you really don't need to know about types of drives, needles, etc.

Im not a huge fan of old Jay-Z but always thought the 'thiggida-thiggida' styles of The Originators was his first outing.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to go back to High Potent and hear a completely original flow before the tongue twisting took hold

Yeah I always wondered why "Hawaiian Sophie" was mentioned quite often on blogs, in articles etc. as being the first Jay-Z appearance. I started to think that there must be an alternate version, since the album version didn't sport a Jay verse. Good to know that indeed there isn't one.
ReplyDeleteHP Gets Busy is nice. Cool 80's sound.
