Limited to 300 copies worldwide!
Produced by Da Beatminerz
First time on 7-inch vinyl
A mesmerizing sample flip courtesy of Da Beatminerz, gritty and introspective rhymes, a double A side record, heavy burn on college radio and on mix tapes ("Change" was notably featured on DJ Premier’s NY Reality Check mix). Bushwick’s Shadez of Brooklyn delivered an absolutely iconic NYC indy record back in ‘96. A record that perfectly encapsulates the raw essence of 90’s boom-bap. Nearly 30 years later, we see it prime for a resurgence with die hard fans and ready to be discovered by others as a hidden gem of the era. Lovingly remastered from Mr. Walt’s original DAT tapes specifically for a 45 release.
This release marks the first time "Change" and "When It Rains It Pours" have been paired on a 45–honoring the original Shadez of Brooklyn 12” on Da Beatminerz imprint Pandemonium Wrekordz, featuring the same radio versions of these cuts. The DIY aesthetic of this 7-inch release (hand packaged and stickered) hopes to pay tribute to the original’s independent, no frills nature.
