Ok dudes. I need help. My current obsession is snatching up Golden-era hip-hop CDs (1988-1991) that ruled my world as a young Whiney.

Unfortunately these things are out of print. And eBay has them for like a million billion dollars. Fortunately, record store clerks in small towns have no clue what things are worth and they end up putting these gems in the used bins of towns I can never get to.

So, FIND ME THESE RECORDS!

If you mail me one of these CDs, you will get:
1. The price of the CD reimbursed in cash money (no more than $10, please)
2. FOUR (or more) of the hottest promo CDs of YOUR CHOICE!!!
3. The latest issue of CMJ
4. A double-disc burn of my year 2004 mixtape!

Ask bort, he did a favor for me and got sweet, sweet swag. Been looking for that Bloc Party EP that comes out next month? How about the new Sage Francis? High On Fire? the Doves? I fucking have them all and more. Anything you want, I will get.

Ask bort. He did a solid for me once and got a big box of promo CDs. He still AIMs me with thanks.

So scour those local indies. Find me these gems. Get swag!

-Cash Money And Marvelous, Where's The Party At? (Sleeping Bag)
-Three Times Dope, Original Stylin' (Arista)

You find this, betta send a player a copy.

K-S-O-L-O Is spellbound.

I bet I could kick the entire song Renee if I had the backing track.

i have these two. i really don't want to part with them tho.

Clever Cactus baby!

i hooked up whiney once and he took care of me. if someone finds that Kwame The Boy Genius cd we need to be communicating.

bort

I don't really like MP3s. Am I getting old?

And surly!

I'll burn you copies if you want.

you must be swimming in promo's.
I don't even understand how you guys spend money on music since you get so much free.

Do they have to be cd's or does vinyl work?

I am, yes.



Because people send me boring indie rock and crappy emo records all day. What i really want is out-of-print hip-hop and underground freaknoise.



CDs only. I don't have room in my apt. for vinyl.

I like having them with art, so they're more like an artifact. A living, breathing document.

I will probably have to grow out of this one day, for it seems everyone likes the MP3s.

Also, I'm far more likely to listen to something if its on my CD wall than in a folder.

Also, what feels better than buying CDs? God, there's nothing i love more, really.

sort of on the subject, i think someone stole my biz markie goin' off cd.

whiney, k-solo here. i'm not sure how much the prices are going to get jacked up in the 3-4 days of bidding that's left.

i saw PRT on there with a starting bid of $49.99. ridiculous.

i bid on a k-solo and it went to over $30!

I got one for around $20 a few months ago. Check Amazon marketplace... always steals there.

i bought The W.I.S.E. Guys Ef yoU eN Kay E album the other day...

bump

This is so fucking true. I think I spent over two hours in two different record stores last night.

One last bump for the rare occasion that someone might give a fuck about me.

sorry, i got nothing. good luck, though.

I wrote 'em down but I wouldn't put too much faith in Vancouver's used Hip Hop selection. I'll check next time I'm out looking.

I got nuthin' for you, but that signature line is stellar.

I care, I really do. But the local likely suspect just closed (I mean 'moved'). Of remaining emporia, one knows the value of everything and prices accordingly, one asserts at the door 'No (c)Rap or Punk' and no luck at the third.
