Hip Hop Classic repressed! The original issue of the 1983 song 'Beat Bop' by lyricists Rammellzee and K-Rob has been heard by many, but held by few. Only a reputed 500 of the song's initial run, on Jean-Michel Basquiat's one-off Tartown Records label, were made with jacket cover art by the infinitely influential graphic artist (and moonlighting musician and producer). They remain one of hip-hop's 'Holy Grail' items, selling north of $1,500 if you can even find one. The audio, which clocked in at over 10 minutes, was issued with no picture sleeve on Profile Records soon after the Tartown pressings, and went on to influence countless MCs, with its minimal, languishing funk beat (produced by Basquiat) and Rammellzee's and K-Rob's next-level lyricism.
