The album is still brand new, factory-sealed, and the vinyl is guaranteed.

It did, and it changed what a hip hop record was allowed to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"So What'cha Want\" arrives snarling through a fuzz pedal, \"Pass the Mic\" sets the template for a decade of underground rap, and instrumentals like \"Groove Holmes\" and \"In 3's\" show a band genuinely enjoying playing together. Mario Caldato Jr. keeps everything gritty and low-slung, with Money Mark's keyboards giving the whole thing its warmth. Punk, funk, jazz breaks and hardcore sit side by side without apology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwenty tracks across four sides.
