Burden of Proof [LP] [VINYL]

Double vinyl LP pressing. Benny the Butcher blazed a trail as an elite voice in rap's underground to become a top artist in all of music. The prolific Buffalo, New Yorker has established two legendary (and concurrent) album series, broken bread with industry leaders, and twice reached the Billboard Top 40 albums chart as an independent. Now Benny sets the table for a definitive 2022. Soon, he will unveil his highly-anticipated Tana Talk 4. By 2004, Benny combined these experiences to launch the Tana Talk series while on house arrest. As TT3 promised, Benny delivered two volumes of The Plugs I Met, in 2019 and 2021, on his Black Soprano Family imprint. In between, Benny inked with Roc Nation management and made songs with Drake, Lil Wayne, Black Thought, and Freddie Gibbs. He also partnered with Grammy-winning producer Hit-Boy to flaunt his range on 2020's acclaimed Burden Of Proof. If the third installment of Tana Talk made Benny a formidable presence in Rap, Volume 4 propels him to stardom. Debut single InchJohnny P's CaddyInch partners The Butcher with J. Cole over The Alchemist production. Al' and Daringer handle the album's music, just as they seamlessly did on TT3. Conway, Westside Gunn, 38 Spesh and more guest on TT4, as does Stove God Cooks. Benny's skills and authenticity have cemented his place in the game. However, in a career defined by will and perseverance, The Butcher's blade keeps getting sharper. Album Tracks 1.

Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing. For this one, Jack and Meg decamped to Memphis to record at the legendary Easley-McCain Studio and walked away with a bonafide classic. Unique for a White Stripes album, as it contains no covers, no guest musicians, no blues and no guitar solos, this album would be most of the world's introduction to the band. While the video for InchFell In Love With A GirlInch could've single-handedly raised the price of LEGO stock the other jams on here are momentous, from the fuzz distorted clarion call of album opener InchDead Leaves and the Dirty GroundInch to the finger-pointing accusations of InchI Think I Smell A RatInch this album has everything you could ever want from the Detroit duo. Cut directly from the original 1/4Inch master tapes, pressed on 180gm vinyl and lovingly ensconced in a beauteous Stoughton tip-on jacket... this album has never looked better, and perhaps, has looked markedly worse. Album Tracks 1. Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground 2. Hotel Yorba 3. I'm Finding It Harder to Be a Gentlemen 4. Fell in Love with a Girl 5. Expecting 6. Little Room 7. The Union Forever 8. The Same Boy You've Always Known 1. We're Going to Be Friends 2. Offend in Every Way 3. I Think I Smell a Rat 4. Aluminum 5. I Can't Wait 6. Now Mary 7. I Can Learn 8. This Protector
