The good homie @ CratesOfJr just sent me this gem in my inbox and while I haven't listened to it yet I would be suprised if this free EP doesn't turn out to be the bomb. Two of the West Coast's finest collaborate on this project called "Cracks in the Vinyl"; Madlib on the beats and Planet Asia ripping the mic can hardly go wrong the way I see it! The 6-track EP is given away free in celebration of Stones Throw 15 year anniversary; can you believe it's been that long since S.T. broke through onto the scene.
According to Brandon at CratesOfJr. the songs got a dusty quality to them and plays more like a mixtape but no matter what this is two of California's finest doing their thing right here. Apparantly Planet Asia recorded the project in three days on a break from his recent Cali Agents European Tour. Both Madlib and Asia are clearly on a roll lately, dropping more projects the last few years than many artists does in their musical lifetime. Enjoy these quality beats and rhymes and TURN IT THE FUCK UP!
