La the Darkman - Heist of the Century (25th Anniversary Reissue) 2XLP
In tribute to the 25th anniversary of Lā the Darkman’s Heist of the Century LP, we’re pleased to announce our partnership with the Brooklyn native for a special edition vinyl reissue, marking the first time that the record’s been repressed since its original release. This album is widely regarded as one of the strongest and most underrated releases from a Wu-Tang Clan affiliate, which is why we’ve chosen this record to launch our new reissues division.
Throughout the album’s 18 tracks, Darkman embodies the raw spirit of the Wu, while adding his own signature gritty flavor. Accompanied by a first-rate lineup of guest appearances that include Raekwon, Ghostface, Masta Killa, U-God, Havoc and more, the LP is equally rivaled with a with top-tier production roster that includes beats by Six July, RZA, DJ Muggs, Havoc and 4th Disciple.
The album has been digitally remastered, with some fitting modifications made to the artwork and layout by Jelle Smid, including black flooded jacket pockets. This item has sold out with a repress currently in production.
