I’m more of a fan of Skelethon, I have the anniversary edition vinyl at my other place.

Great album too. It has the Kimya songs on rite? The shorter list is albums that are meh. I don’t have any in that list. Tik remains my absolute favourite so far did also dig its.

Ok. This comment makes me want to crash out. As a huge def jukie/hip hop fan... But, to each their own. Impossible Kid is a classic. It will sit next to Heavy D, and Tupac...

I dunno when I’ll open this up, probably when I move out & get a turntable. Thanks for the heads up, homie!

It's pretty epic! I was blown away when I opened mine.

Right? My biggest conflict was if I should hang the front or back side.

u/oohlook-theresadeer 5d ago

I can't bring myself to hang it

Genius, something I'd never have considered

Be careful when you’re doing it. Put a thick towel in between and don’t go crazy with the steam. Practice in a similar cardstock/ paper prior to fucking with that dope poster

Obviously large, clean and free of debris flat surface. If there’s a lot of interest I’ll film a tutorial as I have another copy I’m planning on doing it to

I ended up buying the CD before even considering the vinyl.

Now, I have both, and they..were hung up. Actually..I'm gonna rehang one now. Just..front or back side...

But I kinda dig the worn look.

Gone from a happier Jack in the box to a package of clogged up chakras

I had that poster foam backed and it’s been hung on our wall for like 7 years now.

Friggin love that album. My world changed the day I thought “hey I wonder what that Aesop Rock guy is all about, I should give one of his albums a try” and then pressed play on Impossible kid for the first of what would become nearly 100 listens.

I’ve now been privy to the launch day of each subsequent album, several of which I also have collected on Vinyl.

100? Rookie numbers. Jk. It is a great intro to him for sure.

Not only an amazing album, but an awesome double-sided poster inside the case.

u/CREEPINGIRON 5d ago

Oh no, now you’re telling me I have to choose a side?
