African Dope

26/03/2018

just to be clear (because i know what some of you are like), although it looks good enough to eat, the acid tab sheet print you get if you pre-order hasn't actually been soaked in anything pychedelic. or so they tell me...

In little over 2 weeks, the 1st African Dope reissue - Krushed & Sorted 'Acid™ Made Me Do It' - vinyl will be officially available online over at www.permanentrecord.co.za and www.mrvinyl.co.za.

In the meantime, the record is available for pre-order on both platforms and we highly recommend jumping on this train. Pre-orders get a Jungle Book™ inspired L*D tab sheet art print. These will be hand numbered and limited to a series of 20, never to be printed again.

To celebrate the reissue we will also announce a series of events which will include a host of original African Dope artists.

Stay tuned...

It's been a long while. The music keeps playing, people are listening. I've been quite a bit jaded and less-than-excited, thanks to the rock I have been sleeping under. But, listen to this. These youngsters have energy, and a freshness that reminds me of DOPE days. https://soundcloud.com/search?q=fonzo%20return%20of%20the%20boss%20don Love love this AKMG High-ly recommended.
