KRS-One – Return Of The Boom Bap

Mastered by Tony Dawsey, this pressing sounds fantastic. Massive dynamic range with pummeling bass.

Sure, it doesn't have a proper cover, but it's a top-tier pressing.

How does it sound vs the MOV press ?

Sounds and looks great. Nice heavy bass and solid packaging. Would highly recommend.

Mine is mislabelled, disc 1 says sides 2&3 and disc 2 says sides 3&4. Are these all mislabelled the same?

Well well, and again, are we now at the point of discogs when reissues of existing products receive an own entry in the artists discography? I don´t get it, maybe the creator of this imho weird procedure can bring some enlightment to the table.

I have in my runouts CHIP 142 A, CHIP 142 B, CHIP 142 C, CHIP 142 C

Definate 5* repress of my fav Hip-Hop record.

Glad to have found it.

Fantastic press! A common MOV W🙌 A dope album with «Outta Here» being my favorite track. Got «Sound Of Da Police» on here too👑 Only issue is that my copy came with a short deep scratch on «Black Cop», record 1 side A track 3. So the cartradge gets stuck in the same loop and cant move forward. Guess I was unlucky with mine. Innersleves are cardborad, its dope but kills your records. MOV usally print their records with great quality innersleeves. So you might wonna consider a better replacement. You can still fit the originals together with the records inside the cover

Decent enough mastering and cut, fairs better than most at NRP. I'd say it's still a bit compressed and lacks a spacious low end that i would expect given the source material. Love the addition of the 7".
However, the pressing is just flat out noisy. Maybe not something you care about with boom bap rap, but it is noticeable if you plan on spinning this frequently and treating it more than just a collectors item. Quality of the vinyl is per usual with United, rough edges, small spindle hole, flakes all within the original inners. Below average in my opinion. All that to say it's fine.... but the MOV pressing turned out exponentially better. Would recommend tracking down the MOV clear pressing.

With those MOVs readily available I'm not sure why anyone would go through the trouble of getting this pressing or any of the other Fat Beats pressings that use the same plates.

IT'S ORANGE NOT GOLD... Can't stand when they say gold as it sounds better.
