The US limited edition cassette scene is growing each day, so we don't want to let you down and offer you this very limited edition cassette. Only very few copies available. Limited edition of 35 cassettes. Home Dubbed, handcrafted and made in the USA. Pink, normal bias cassettes with glossy labels. Each tape comes with a double side printed j-card.
THIS IS A TAPE ONLY RELEASE! "It feels almost cliche to write about how prolific Chris Crack is, but to avoid it would overshadow his sharp artistic development. In the two and a half years since Who the Fuck is Chris Spencer alone, Crack has dropped hundreds of songs over a spate of full-lengths, EPs, and digital singles. This wouldn’t be all that impressive if he weren’t one of the most intriguing writers in rap music today, his songs overflowing with imagery, characters cropping up and showing themselves out, Scorsesian narrative pacing, and enough shit-talking to shut down any corner of any Martin Luther King Boulevard in any city.

With each new release—keeping up is like a middle school cross country team trying to match steps with multiple-time 10k marathon winner—Crack continues to sharpen his craft. Right on the heels of his excellent 2018 projects ICYMI, Let’s Just Be Friends, and the August Fanon-produced This Will All Make Sense Later (a prelude/cryptic warning), Being Woke Ain’t Fun serves as Crack’s best project yet, finding new techniques and narrative openings as a writer, new stories to tell, new August Fanon beats to flatline before jumping out of the door in two minutes."
