    Yeah, I'm a regular on discogs. That's where I get my vinyl. I buy mostly old soul/funk/jazz records for sampling but I buy some Hip Hop or modern stuff if the price is right. I bought a compilation of all late 80s house music for like $4 a few weeks ago.

    As far as buying cds, lately I've been going to Amazon. They have everything and its cheap. You can get a cd for $3 and the shipping is $3.99 so it comes out to about $7 for a new cd.

    When I lived in Boston (in the early 90s) I used to hit up the local record shops, but now I live in Trenton and there's really only one store that sells vinyl called Princeton record Exchange. They're cool but discogs is GOAT.

    Yeah, he does the song that Jay sampled for Dear Summer. I have an album by him, but its not the one with the Dear Summer beat.

    I forgot about Kanye, ? yall retail elitist I did my part I supported Ye from the very beginning I did my part. Hip Hop and its fans owe me gratitude. College Dropout leaked version is the only leak that made me cop the retail version and Ye did what most artist dont do he added new verses and songs to the retail version.

    Last albums I purchased.

    These were when they were released.

    Jay Z -Black Album (2003)

    G Unit - Beg For Mercy (2003)

    Kanye West - College Dropout (2004)

    Usher - Confessions Deluxe Edition (2004)

    50 Cent - Massacre (2005, Waste of 13 dollars and the last time I got burned buying a wack album)

    Kanye West - Late Registration (2005)

    Lil Wayne - Carter 3 (2008 Only bought it because I owed lil Wayne, since I sold around 500 Wayne tapes from 2006 to Carter 3 release)

    Most likely will never purchase another album.

    My Collection
