{"product_id":"illmatic-vinyl-lp","title":"Illmatic: Vinyl LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlack vinly LP with full lyric insert and poster plus recreation of original press release. backed by an absolute all-star cast of new york's top-shelf producers -premier, pete rock, large professor, q-tip and a youngster named l.e.s. - the album never lets up. serious to a fault, and lyrically dense to an extent that has possibly never been matched, the 20-year old nas stood on the shoulders of his predecessors and proudly proclaimed, 'don't f*** with the east' we are back'. 'illmatic' was actually a slow-burn, which might surprise fans that have come to its genius more recently. despite an unheard-of '5 mics' rating in the source - breaking an unwritten rule of never awarding classic status to debuts - it didn't go gold until early 1996, and didn't hit platinum status until late 2001.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recordstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49975628267762,"sku":"4759591","price":8.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/1621\/5794\/files\/SharedImage-114080.png?v=1787639203","url":"https:\/\/recordstero.shop\/products\/illmatic-vinyl-lp","provider":"recordstero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
