Jay-Z - The Hustlers EP Northwestside Records Label - NWSX16 1996 UK First Pressing on Black Vinyl
This listing is for a rare promo EP for Jay's debut album Reasonable Doubt.  Featuring the tracks Feelin It, Brooklyn's Finest with Biggie and featuring the exclusive track Dead or Alive which was Jay's attempt to join Biggie with his feud against 2Pac, I imagine for PR rather than anything else.  2Pac did not see Jay as a threat and quickly deflected his blows with a single line, legend.  Would be interesting to see how the relationship would have developed once Jay hit the big time.  A great and rare piece to add to any hip hop collection.
Please check out my other listings for other rarities and classics across various genres.
All of my records are play tested on a Technics SL-1200 with a Grado GF3 stylus which is quite revealing so any sound defects may be more exaggerated than on other more mainstream players.  Or conversely if you are a full on audiophile I will let you judge how your set up compares and how you envisage the sound will compare.
I don't currently have access to a cleaning machine so please forgive any dust or finger marks which are on any of my records - hopefully will be investing in one at some point.
Record Appearance - VG+ There are a couple of light marks and scuffs but nothing deep that affects play.  Nice glossy finish otherwise and labels are in good condition with no pen marks.
Record Audio - VG+ There is only light surface noise on run in and on quieter moments but nothing significant and I would imagine a clean would relieve this.  Great sounding record with big rich sound and high volume levels, great piece.
Record Sleeve - VG+ Record comes in a generic card sleeve which is in good condition, along with a plain white inner to protect the record.
All questions answered and offers considered.  Thanks for looking and please follow me and check out my other listings as they appear.  I work full time and have 3 children so please forgive any delay in communication but should be within 24 hours.
