DESCRIPTION
GET ON DOWN EXCLUSIVE
PRESSED ON MULTI-COLORED SWIRL VINYL WITH 30TH ANNIVERSARY WRAP- AROUND OBI PACKAGED IN A GATEFOLD JACKET WITH EXTENDED LINER NOTES
LIMITED TO 2000 COPIES
Get On Down in partnership with Sony's CERTIFIED is proud to present a recut deluxe 30th anniversary colored vinyl pressing of Resurrection that includes the original album plus 3 Resurrection remixes with liner notes by Check The Technique author Brian Coleman and featuring track-by-track commentary from Common and No I.D. all in a beautiful gatefold jacket with a commemorative wrap-around OBI.
Resurrection was originally released thirty years ago on Oct, 4, 1994. While the mainstream originally neglected the album, it has since received a great deal of critical acclaim and is now on The Source's 100 Best Rap Albums. In comparison to his debut album, Common's musical style evolved lyrically by expressing himself rather than just describing street life. With its Jazz and Hip Hop flavors, Resurrection furthered the growth of both genres. Overall, the album is commonly perceived as an underrated Hip-Hop classic.
Resurrection was produced almost entirely by No I.D., who has gone on to work with heavyweights like Usher, Alicia Keys, and Killer Mike on his Grammy Winning album Michael. In addition, No I.D. is credited as the man who introduced Kanye West to Hip Hop production, inviting him to his sessions with Common when West was only starting out.
This new deluxe 30th-anniversary pressing is in stock and shipping now!
