Robed In Rareness (Loser Edition Translucent Red Vinyl) [Vinyl]

Shabazz Palaces is masterminded by vocalist and producer Ishmael Butler, whose unstinting drive to reimagine hip-hop - even as he enters his fifth decade on Earth - remains undimmed. With Robed In Rareness, there is a respectful eye on the past, an embrace of an ever-evolving present, and its feet are firmly planted in the future. It features collaborations with the likes of Seattle s Royce The Choice and Porter Ray, Colorado Springs O Finess, Bronx s Geechi Suede (of Camp Lo), and Butler s son, the incomparable Lil Tracy.

Robed In Rareness was produced by Shabazz Palaces, mixed by Erik Blood, and engineered by Ishmael Butler and Blood at Studio4 West in Venice, California, with mastering by Warren Defever at Third Man Mastering
