You Said You'd Hold My Hand Through The Fire (LP + MP3 download code)
Cat: HDBLP 067. Rel: 06 Jun 24
Review: Spanish producer Nueen and Manchester vocalist and rapper Iceboy Violet, who you might well recognised from appearing on Hyperdub releases by the likes of aya and Loraine James, come together for a collaborative work that follows the story of a four-year-long relationship. As you can imagine, therefore, it takes in peaks and troughs, emotional highs, depressive lows, and plenty in between that will all feel all too familiar to anyone who has ever fallen in and out of love. Drill-laced beats are laced with intimate melodies, and excitable chords spiral out of control while a menacing ambience percolates up from below. It's a powerful listen with a relatable narrative.

Life Cycles (translucent blue vinyl LP)
Cat: RFFN 1052. Rel: 12 Sep 23
Review: Mike Flips and Seize join forces here for an album that draws on the magic of classic boom bap. Life Cycles is brought to life with the dexterous rhymes of the talented Outsiders Syndicate MC Nord1kone and makes for an introspective trip that both looks to the past, but also the future. There are some cultured guest spots along the way too from El Da Sensei of the Artifacts crew as well as another Outsiders Syndicate MC in The I.M.F. Arriving on translucent blue vinyl this is a perfect record for those with a love of the old school but who like a little new school freshness with their beats.

Equator Hotline (limited 180 gram vinyl LP + insert)
Cat: CB 151. Rel: 24 May 23
Review: Belgian producer Sim Nagai is back to take you on a worldly trip with ore of his well designed sounds on this new album for Cold Busted. It will be no surprise to learn once you hear this album that he loves to travel and manages to ably capture that in his work. Equator Hotline is packed with exotica-fuelled beatscapes and transportive vibes. On 'Animal Lithographs' there are lush harp sounds and subtle eastern melodies, 'Floating Through The Delta' is a humid and steamy trip down the river with the gentle patter of hand drums and swooning strings and 'Catching Waves' then carries you away on more gently broken beat loops and sun kissed melodies. This is super warm music for super warm days.

Jupiter (translucent red vinyl LP + booklet in spot-varnished sleeve)
Cat: 198028 62871. Rel: 28 Feb 25
Review: Jupiter is a radiant return for Noa that signals a new quality to her artistry. Following her 2021 album, And Then Life Was Beautiful, which was shaped by personal challenges and a diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Nao embraces joy and healing on this fourth outing. Tracks like 'Elevate' and 'Wildflowers' express optimism with others like 'Better Days' and 'Happy People' underscoring the theme of growth. The album blends funky guitar solos, delicious drum patterns and nostalgic sounds throughout and manages to show up great musical versatility across a rich, emotionally powerful album.

God's Son (Record Store Day 2020) (limited blue marbled vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: GET 51445LP. Rel: 12 Oct 20
Review: God's Son was recorded in 2001 and 2002 and went on to be the New York hip hop icon's sixth studio album. The record was partly produced by Eminem, partly inspired by Nas's on going beef with Jay-Z, and also the death of his mother. As such violence, religion and stark emotional experiences all colour the lyrics and have led to the record being thought of as one of his most personal and honest. Just a month after it was released, the album was certified Platinum for shifting more than a million copies. It kicks off with one of James Brown's most iconic beats of all paired with some smooth flow from Nas, and the quality never dips from there.

Review: Many years after its release, Illmatic still remains a gold standard hip hop album and one of the most accomplished debuts ever recorded. It's the multi-syllabic internal rhymes of Nas, the tales he tells of life in the Queensbrudge suburbs of New York and the lexicon he uses which makes it resonate through the ages. Of course, the production (taken care fo by Bas as well as DJ Premier, Large Professor, Pete Rock and Q-Tip) and wealth of samples also elevates each tune to a higher plane that few have ever matched since. Including Nas himself, frankly. The album is widely regarded as one of greatest and most influential hip hop albums of all time, so don't sleep on this latest vinyl issue.

Magic (limited pink vinyl LP + booklet with obi-strip)
Cat: MSAL 100B. Rel: 02 Nov 22
Review: 2021's 'Magic' is the fifteenth studio album from undisputed East Coast hip-hop icon Nas. Written entirely by him and producer Hit-Boy, these nine brisk, retro hip-hop uppercuts contain the same grit and immediacy that made Nas's 'Illmatic' one of the most beloved hip-hop records of all time. Featuring DJ Premier and A$AP Rocky on 'Wave Gods', a definite highlight on the record of front-to-back bangers, as Hot-Boy and Nas are going at it like they have something to prove - and whatever it is they proved it.

Review: By this point Nas doesn't have anything prove in terms of East Coast hip-hop, but here he is after all this time delivering some of the most vital work of his career. With Hit-Boy on the buttons, the Illmatic man cuts through with razor sharp invective as he weaves stories and standpoints with frankly mind-bending dexterity. Whatever got him fired up, this is the sound of an artist driven to set the mic on fire, but equally there's a sense of maturity in his lyrics and delivery which shows how much he's learned on his long and winding journey. Stepping up to the mighty MC, the beats are no joke either, hitting a sweet spot between true-skool ethics and fresh approaches so it doesn't feel like a throwback exercise. All hail the return of the king.

Magic Instrumentals (yellow vinyl LP with obi-strip in spot-varnished sleeve)
Cat: MSAP 114. Rel: 18 May 23
Review: Mass Appeal are busy putting on a mix of Nas reissues and newly finished versions of demos that have reminded us just how great the legendary New York rapper really has been over his storied career. This time out they are reissuing a full instrumental version of his 15th studio album Magic. It arrives on highlighter yellow coloured vinyl and even without all the brilliant bars from Nas, the beats here are top drawer from 'Wu For The Children' to 'Meet Joe Black' via 'Wave Gods.' Another crucial one for the collection of any hip-hop head.

Magic 2 (limited coloured vinyl LP + insert with obi-strip)
Cat: MSAL 160A1. Rel: 22 Dec 23
Review: Nas is riding high on a renewed wave of recognition and relevance in the rap game through these collaborations with Hit-Boy, which have been flying out at a rate of knots since King's Disease in 2020. If the pair sometimes revert to classic boom-bap in the style Was originally found fame with, on Magic 2 they're also testing limits with some Atlanta and Memphis-inspired rhythms that show the NYC veteran to be hungry for new challenges and more than able to step up to them. Just sit for a minute with 'Abracadabra' and you'll hear everything you need to know about the new tricks Nas can fold into his inimitable flow.

Review: New Yorker Has is a hip-hop behemoth who will always be associated with his untouchable Illmatic album, but he has also penned plenty of other words that are almost as good. One of them is I Am: The Autobiography, which they say might be the greatest album never released. It is a connect double album that was originally meant to follow up Illmatic and It Was Written and it follows a superb plot line from the moment he is born during the intro to his death in the outro. The second half of the album then sees him reincarnated but before any of this saw the light of day in an official capacity it was leaked and bootlegged back when the internet was still young and infamous for these things. Now after all these years it finally gets the proper vinyl drop it needs.

19 Naughty III (30th Anniversary Edition) (remastered) (translucent orange vinyl 2xLP)
Cat: TB 52721. Rel: 23 Feb 23
Review: Naughty By Nature's third album sees the pop-laced act dabbling in gangster rap/horrorcore imagery - one of its members is quite literally holding a chainsaw on the front cover - Naughty By Nature's 'Naughty III' was first released in 1993, in the fallout of their earliest breakout single 'O.P.P'. Now approaching its 30th Annversary, this reissue from Tommy Boy urges us to cast our minds back to early 1990s New Jersey, when Treach, Kay Gee and Vin Rock were at peak naughty, extorting Spike Lee into directing some of their music videos, not to mention laying down menacing, wicked and rousing verses on the likes of 'Uptown Anthem', '19 Naughty III' and 'Sleepin' On Jersey'.

Review: Naughty By Nature's greatest hits compilations number in the many. In contrast to their two former collections of the same sort, Naughty's Nicest and Nature's Finest, this third Greatest Hits record doesn't sport a subtitle like the other two, yet continues to spread the legacy of this nefarious triad. Released with trueness on the group's breakout catalyst Queen Latifah's label Tommy Boy Records, we're once again met with the ingenious East Coast stylings of early hits like 'O.P.P.' and 'Everything's Gonna Be All Right'. A common theme is rags-to-riches and the achievement of glory through hardship, though the tracks' optimistic tone overall tends to jut through this originally bleak subject matter. Later hits like 'Feel Me Flow' and remixes from Crazy C and QD III also feature.

Review: American rapper, producer, skateboarder and model Navy Blue (Sage Elsesser) drops his third album Ways Of Knowing, channelling a crisp, soul-and-gospel-intoned sound that leans heavily on the wisdom of his ancestors and relatives. Recalling a filial crossbreed of D'Angelo and J Cole, the LP is a sophisticated, spiritual modern hip-hop project, whereupon we hear Elsesser pay homage to his grandmother, his Yoruba ancestry and his chosen loved ones in the present day, bringing them all together under an equal but critical aegis. Though it isn't also unaware of the darker, structural forces that have polluted his knowledge of the many Ways Of Knowing he's now enlightened to - indeed, 'Freehold' is a gloomy one - it's an overall beautiful record, reflecting Navy Blue's deep awareness of what conspired to make him spectacular.

Review: "It's a little bit of all of me, my travels, my life," says Meshell Ndgeocello, speaking of her latest album The Omnichord Real Book. Referring to the 'first real book' she ever read - the experience of life after her father's passing - the album is a testament to free-flowing, lived sensoriality in time. An antistatic rip-roar through memory and decay in blue, this is a stunning two-sided jazz-esque album packed with features and far-flung stylisms. In the artist's words, the LP slippily rails against the confines of the word 'jazz' itself. And if you can pull that off, well...

Review: After years spent working alongside a talented pool of jazz musicians as the Neue Grafik Ensemble, Fred N'Thepe has decided to go solo for the first time this decade. Dalston Tapes Vol 1 is, according to Rhythm Section International, a conscious attempt by the artists to return to his beat-making roots. It's an album, then, rooted in hip-hop mixtape culture, where vocal numbers featuring guest MCs sit side by side with rap-free "beats" - lusciously and impeccably crafted instrumentals in which warming bass guitar lines, deep electronic sub-bass, sparkling electronic motifs and choice samples cluster around loosely swung, MPC-driven beat patterns. It's a great collection all told, with nods towards club-ready broken beat and deep house sitting side by side with Dilla-esque workouts and references towards London's vibrant hip-hop and grime underground.

Review: Jakarta-born, LA-based singer-songwriter NIKI has announced her third studio album, Buzz, set for release on August 9th via 88rising. Alongside this exciting news, she has unveiled the lead single, 'Too Much Of A Good Thing.' Co-produced with Ethan Gruska, known for his work with Phoebe Bridgers and Bon Iver, the flirty track features sardonic lyrics and a sinewy bass guitar, speaking about the excitement of a new crush. NIKI describes the song as a fun, tongue-in-cheek exploration of desire and imagination, with a groove inspired by classic rock from the 60s and 70s. Emerging from a profound inner journey, this album delivers warm folk-rock songs that crackle with intimacy and introspection. Reflecting on an identity crisis, NIKI blends influences from Joni Mitchell to Liz Phair, crafting a personal narrative through elastic guitar melodies. Collaborating with seasoned producers, she captures a wandering spirit that resonates with hard-earned wisdom and resilience.

Review: Japanese jazzist Kenichiro Nishihara drew much acclaim for his second LP Humming Jazz in 2008, which came a full five years after his debut in 2003, and heralded a stabler career thereafter. With its harmonious, benignant piano melodies and oblique drum palette - which hears the artist secure both live bossa nova performances and original hip house beats - Nishihara knew the inherent entertainment value in tender modal jazz, and sought to enmesh sophistication with pop breeziness. 'Rain Falls' is an especially round-bodied track, with glycemic vocal flavours from Kissey Asplund and richly EQ-ed drums, setting a soulful precedent for two key hip-hop gems to come: 'From Time To Time' and 'Consider My Love', featuring rappers Gregg Green and Pismo. 'Step Out' signals the record's close with bopping triplet gaiety.

Review: Now available in long-awaited LP form, Kenichiro Nishihara's second LP Life is issued via Urban Discos. Aiming to capture the essence of life in 12 tracks, the record, originally released in January 2010, fuses the blissed-out, piano-drenched Tokyo hip-hop sound with an advanced jazztronica palette and deals in themes of blessings, personal philosophy and stoical musings on everyday hardship but ultimate satisfaction. The rap features from Substantial, Steph Pockets, Amanda Diva, Pismo, Nina Vidal, Kissey Asplund and Gregg Green occur alternately between solo instrumentals from Nishihara himself; all tracks in the first category almost all deal in themes of flourishing and authenticity in day-to-day life, while those in the latter box serve as felicitous personal soundtracks for those cathartic revelations that can only arise through experience and dialogue.
