The Albums You Have Recently Bought Thread.

I still use discogs honestly...although the last 2 "near mint" vinyls I picked up were definitely not... but aside from that I've never had any issues and I've been using it for years (mostly for older albums though).

I also used to use sandboxautomatic...I had no idea they were still around!

CDs are going to be harder and harder to find for new releases...they will probably eventually disappear.

Now that i think about it, the last albums I bought were all independent(ish) and either from the artist directly or BC

Fat Joe - Crack Era

I found a new copy of the Guilty Simpson/Small Pro & Sean Price/M-Phazes - Highway Robbery/Land of the Crooks double CD so I grabbed it...and I also picked up Sean Price's Donkey Sean Jr OG mixtape I've been looking for for quite a while. Expensive morning lol

When purchasing CD's, I usually just go to F.Y.E. When I purchase online, I always do eBay. I always look for good used copies, but will purchase new if I cannot find used.

I wonder if it'll be the same when I get my hands on 'Pac's Life', which I wasn't a fan of either (but which I liked better than 'Loyal to the game')

TIME = the great healer.

How do you feel about this guy's take? https://youtu.be/bafX4NP8zV0

I miss buying CDs. Audio is better.

^^I agree, I love CDs.

I just bought Drag-On - Say Hello To The Bad Guys, a street album on CD. It looks like a professionally pressed mixtape, not a CDr.

I used to buy a lot of CDs & books from the UK but after Brexit it's mostly straight through Amazon or via the Netherlands and Germany, where shops still have large rap back catalogues.

That Weezy album Funeral is a missed opportunity. It sounds like good bars but EVERYTHING is autotune, I can't deal with that. I should have checked before buying lol.
