FlipNJay releases are a celebration of how Hip-Hop music spread worldwide including their close neighbours in Canada, specifically to Toronto, which was a perfect handoff because of its immense Caribbean community. The bond is that Hip-Hop’s first DJ ever, DJ Kool Herc, was a Jamaican immigrant himself and it is the DJ that helped breathe new life into Canadian Hip-Hop from the 1980s, 90s, and 2000s.
The cultural and historic importance of our releases goes beyond just bringing back Canadian classics and putting them on vinyl. Exposing these classic records to a new generation of music lovers is what it is all about.
