Back in the the days when hip hop was so underground, it was hard to get pressed on vinyl. Cassette tape was sometimes the main format to circulate the music back in the underground! Gangsta Rap Cassettes digs deep into that musical moment – a cassette-sized book that offers up a guide to hundreds of rare cassettes – each presented with their full front artwork on the smaller pages – with English listings of the dates, title, artist, label, and location – and a bit of added text in Japanese (which you should be able to read using Google translate.) The book features listings for over 300 cassette-only releases – then also has a smaller section on the selectors' favorites at the end, plus an index of artists – all presented in an eye-catching, all-color softcover volume.
Highly recommended!!
