The Cipher Crate - Vinyl
The Cipher Crate
Part of The Black Crate subscription series by Apocalypse Vinyl.
Old school, new heat, underground essentials; no weak links allowed.
This crate is all about hip-hop in its rawest forms — from golden-age legends and underground icons to modern boundary-pushers keeping the culture alive. Expect classic albums, lyrical bombs, dusty loops, and deep cuts that never made it to the mainstream — all on wax, where they belong.
From the boroughs to the basement, this is curated for heads who know the difference between a beat and a banger. No weak bars. No throwaways. Just real records for real listeners.
Included:
Two hip-hop essentials handpicked for flow, fire, and cultural weight — no chart-chasing fluff, just records that matter.
Always a blind drop. Never predictable. No skips.
Examples you might find: MF DOOM, Mobb Deep, Quasimoto, Roc Marciano, Digable Planets, Jean Grae, Gang Starr, Open Mike Eagle, Little Simz.
