Pharcyde
RUNNIN'
Format: 7" Vinyl

Label: Bicycle Music 

Release type: RSD Exclusive Release

More Info:
Before J Dilla was Dilla - he was Jay Dee. One of the first things he did upon relocating to LA from Detroit was serve as the producer of the Pharcyde's sophomore effort, Labcabincalifornia. This stand out selection from that full-length is presented here with the non-album B-Side “Emerald Butterfly.” In a nod to the original blue vinyl 45 issued in 1995, the vinyl is in a blue and clear split pressing housed in a full color jacket that’s a reproduction of the original.

Track List
"Runnin" / "Emerald Butterfly"

Schoolly D
"P.S.K. (What Does It Mean?)" / "Gucci Time"
Split Colored Vinyl (Clear & "Schoolly D Yellow)
Deluxe 30th Anniversary 12-inch, with Custom Sleeve, 4-page Liner Notes insert (featuring input from Schoolly-D) and Sticker Sheet with images drawn by Schoolly-D.
30 years ago, a booming sound was heard rumbling out of Philadelphia, PA. Starting with a trebled-out but thunderous TR-909 drum pattern and galloping forward with little more than a young man's nasal, arrogant flow, that blast was Schoolly-D's "P.S.K. What Does It Mean"? Released on his own Schoolly-D Records label in 1985, the song was - and still is - too powerful and unique to ignore. It took the rap world by storm that year, presenting a counterpoint to Melle Mel's more socially-conscious "The Message"; literally inventing "Gangsta Rap."
