There are tons more releases to be added, so you can check the site on almost a daily basis to see new and catalog releases added. This is the Beta launch, which means the site works and is secure, but there may be bugs still in place, or sections or features we have not added quite yet. Eventually all of the regular content sections, including archives, will be moved over to this website, and the old site will soon be closed down. If you wish to place orders for physical goods in our clearance sale, this is your last chance to do so.

Please read the FAQ for further details about HipHopSite Digital, including full instructions on how to use the site. Thanks for your support in the new era!!

    We are proud to announce that Stones Throw Records has released it's entire full-length catalog to HipHopSite Digital to celebrate the launch of the new digital download venture. From their most recent release, Madlib's "Beat Konducta In India" all the way back to the classic Lootpack debut "Soundpieces" (which is out of print on CD and vinyl), virtually every Stones Throw release is in place, or will be added soon.  

   As an added bonus, many of Stones Throw's digital releases will include bonus tracks on HipHopSite.Com. At launch time, each Madlib "Beat Konducta In India", Yesterday's New Quintet "Yesterday's Universe", and Oh No "Dr. No's Oxperiment" include special bonus tracks that are not found on their physical product counterparts. Plus, all Stones Throw products on HipHopSite Digital are 320kpbs.   

   We would like to thank Stones Throw for being the first label to jump on board, and we look forward to getting everyone else in place soon.

    With their new album, Rocket Surgery, dropping 2008 on Mike Shinoda's Machine Shop Music imprint, Styles Of Beyond have teamed with DJ Green Lantern to bring you "Razor Tag", a collection of exclusive tracks and freestyles put together like only the Evil Genius can.

    To help kick off the launch of HipHopSite Digital, Styles Of Beyond have delivered "Razor Tag Key Cuts", which includes select tracks from the mixtape, unmixed, unaltered, and uncut! Including collaborations with the Demigodz (Apathy, Celph Titled, Motive) and Bishop Lamont, you can get these exclusive non-album, stand alone treats for $1.39 each, ready for your digital music player or digital deejay set up. As an added bonus, ordering all of the songs together will also grab you the full, uncut Razor Tag mix in it's entirety as one long MP3 that you can listen to without interruption. 

  Selected as one of Urb Magazine's Next 100, DJ Benzi is always ahead of the game with new styles, sounds, and trends of the industry. He made a name for himself with 2006's Clipse "We Got The Remix" release, and followed up in 2007 with the Lil' Wayne "None Higher" disc. Both received critical acclaim and are certified street classics, thanks to the seamless flow and high production value, not to mention exclusive remixes by Diplo, A-Trak, Jake One, Ghislain Poirier, & DJ Mighty Mi, just to name few.

   HipHopSite Digital is proud to announce that DJ Benzi has brought exclusive "Key Cuts" EP's for both releases, which feature select songs from both Clipse's "We Got The Remix" and Lil' Wayne's "None Higher". The Key Cuts EP's feature select, uncut, full-length songs from the mixes, without blend outs or drops on top of them, perfect for digital DJ set ups or single track listening on digital music players. As an added bonus, buying the whole EP includes a special bonus track of the full uncut mixes for both releases.

   The trailblazing DJ Benzi has also delivered the first digi-12 to HipHopSite Digital, with the single for "Grey Goose (Diplo Remix)" b/w "Gone Bad (Mr. JPatt Remix)", which includes vocal and instrumental versions for both songs. DJ Benzi is the second artist to deliver to HipHopSite Digital's Key Cuts series, following Styles Of Beyond and DJ Green Lantern's "Razor Tag", also available now.

    We are proud to announce that the entire Eastern Conference Records Digi-12inch catalog is now available for download, exclusively at HipHopSite Digital. We've got digital versions of all of the label's signature 12inch singles, dating back to the first Eastern Conference 12inch "All In Together", as well as it's follow-up "Hands On Experience" (feat. Kool Keith & El-P), both of which have been out of print for almost ten years. All bases are covered, as vinyl classics like Mad Skillz' "Lick The Balls" and the original "B-Boy Document" are available digitally for the first time ever, including all 12inch mixes, and even some never released before acapella versions. Many of the singles have been transferred from the original DAT masters (although in some cases, missing DATS were taken from the vinyl itself), mastered to the highest quality and encoded in 320kbps. Each single is available for purchase separately, or, for high-end DJ's wishing to purchase the entire Eastern Conference collection, you can save a few bucks by getting the CRATES, each of which contain 50+ songs for $40.

    Hall of Justus month continues here at HipHopSite Digital, now in it's second week. Edgar Allen Floe takes the top spot this week, delivering "Floe Almighty: The Remixture", which finds all 15 of the original album tracks, with all new remixes by 9th Wonder, Khrysis, and others. We've got the digital release exclusively, which isn't dropping until mid-November on physical CD, and as an added bonus, we're packing the digital full-length with 15 BONUS INSTRUMENTALS of every track. This is only the beginning, as "Floe Almighty: The Remixture" marks the first release for Edgar's new MCEO Records imprint, with his forthcoming Streetwise LP, dropping early 2008. Meanwhile, In honor of HOJ Month, we're busy obtaining the entire Justus League / Hall of Justus Music Group classic mixtape series. This week sees the first twelve releases, with more to come next week. All of those independently released albums from Little Brother, 9th Wonder, Phonte, LEGACY, Chaundon, and others are available now, with more to come.

We are proud to announce that we have now added the complete OM Records hip-hop catalog to HipHopSite Digital... This includes every People Under The Stairs album and digi-12inch, the Deep Concentration compilation series, plus newer releases from groups like Zion & The Grouch, Strange Fruit Project, Ladybug Mecca (Digable Planets) and many more.

   The latest label to jump on board HipHopSite Digital is David Schrager's Halftooth Records imprint, based out of NYC. Halftooth recently released Median's Relief from Justus League member Median, which was a best selling title here during September. The label also has released full-length projects with Wordsworth, Oddisee, and Kenn Starr, and has recorded high-profile collaborations with artists like 9th Wonder, J-Live, Talib Kweli, Masta Ace, and Little Brother, all released within their catalog. HipHopSite Digital now stocks all of the label's full-length and digital 12inch releases.

    It started off with 9th Wonder, followed up with Edgar Allen Floe, and now Hall Of Justus Month kicks into high gear with the release of Little Brother's third LP, Get Back. The album was released on Tuesday, October 23rd, and it quickly became the top selling item yet on HipHopSite's new digital download service.

   Perhaps this is because of the album's exclusive bonus track and full instrumentals being offered exclusively at HipHopSite Digital? That's part of it, but another part of it is the long history the group shares with HipHopSite.Com. In HipHopSite's eleven year history, Little Brother's The Listening was  not only the top selling album on the website ever, selling an upwards of almost 3000 copies on CD and vinyl, but also, HipHopSite has remained the top-selling indie retailer in the world on this release for many years. Whether or not Get Back will top that in the digital realm remains to be seen, but it's off to a good start. The album is available now for download, in deluxe and standard editions.

Attention Serato deejays!! New digi-12inches are available for download now at HipHopSite Digital, including all of those clean, dirty, instrumental, and acapella edits you need for your club, gig, or radio show. There are a handful of exclusives in that batch below. Check them out and get to spinnin'.....

    Embarking on almost the tenth anniversary since the release of Show and A.G.'s Full Scale EP, the group hasn't released a full-length project since, until now.

    The new project includes all new studio tracks - plus instrumentals - and is not a live album, as one might think from the title. With no CD or vinyl release date on set, currently this digital only release is only available here at HipHopSite.Com.

    We are also happy to announce that we now stock the entire Show and AG back-catalog. All of the group's full/mid length projects are here: "Soul Clap / Party Groove" (+2 Bonus Tracks), "Runaway Slave", "Goodfellas", and "Full Scale (Extended Edition)"; plus, we've got digi-12inches for every single released from each those albums.

    We are excited to announce the release of Dirt Nasty's new self-titled LP on Shoot To Kill Music. Just who is Dirt Nasty? You might (or more likely not) recognize him as actor Simon Rex, who rolls with the Dyslexic Speedreaders crew (along with Mickey Avalon & Andre Legacy). While we passed on the palatial Mickey Avalon hype machine earlier this year, we can't help but love Dirt Nasty's self-titled debut, which presents sick and twisted rhymes in the tradition of artists like R.A. The Rugged Man or Eminem, but from the perspective of a coked-out, struggling Hollywood actor, making this one of the funniest and original hip-hop releases of the year. His video "1980" (as seen here) has been on repeat around the office the last few months, and even features cameos from DJ A.M. and Evidence of Dilated Peoples.

    "I'm tired of charging for everything. I like the idea of giving something away once in a while," says Baje One, "if only to give back to everyone who's supported us up to this point." Indeed, The Weightless EP promises to be the first in a series of free music from Nuclear Family, the collective that spawned subgroups Junk Science and Iller Than Theirs, among others. 'Weightless' shows a slightly more serious, contemplative side of Baje. "It's a handful of songs that I wrote right after we finished the Junk album. So I guess some of them are ideas that wouldn't necessarily make sense in that context. It's more about where I'm at than where me and Snafu can meet in the middle." For 'Weightless' Baje enlisted production from fellow Nuclear Fam members J. Howells Werthman and Scott Thorough, but he also stepped outside of the crew for tracks from Therapy (The Smile Rays, The AB's) and Willie Evans Jr. (The AB's). The EP also features strong performances from several guest emcees from Baje's extended music family in NYC. The title track features Mercury (The Dugout), and 'Computer Rock' features verses from King Gutta I (The Project) and Starpower (The Dugout). The EP is free with any purchase at HipHopSite.Com, courtesy of Definitive Jux / Embedded Music.

Ayatollah is one of those rare producers who has managed to bridge the gap between classic New York Hip Hop production and today's current flashy style. His new all-instrumental album called “Louder” is a testament to hot beats, past, present, and future. Hailing from Queens, Ayatollah has produced for predominantly New York-based rappers including Ghostface Killah, G-Unit, Rakim, Inspectah Deck, Guru, Tragedy Khadafi, R.A. The Rugged Man, Wordsworth, Vast Aire, Afu-Ra, as well as many others. Ayatollah first received mainstream recognition after producing Rawkus rapper Mos Def's hit “Ms. Fat Booty”, the first single off his “Black on Both Sides” album; whilst subsequently receiving a gold plaque for probably his most well-known track to date, Styles P's smash hit “My Life” featuring Organized Konfusion legend Pharoahe Monch, which appeared on the Rawkus Records compilation “Soundbombing III”. With influences such as Marly Marl, 45 King, and Pete Rock, Ayatollah has been able to create a sound steeped in Hip Hop culture nearly impossible to mimic in today's copycat market of beatmaking. "Louder" is an instrumental collection of Ayatollah's favorite compositions, all of which have never been heard before by the public. Encoded at 320 kbps.

"Fire" is part one of a four-part series in which each album will represent a different natural element and hip-hop vibe.

Those who say, "They don't make hip-hop like they used to" need look no further. Encoded at 320 kbps, free Instrumentals with purchase, exclusively at HipHopSite.Com.

No one is safe! Nuclear testing has resurrected this Jurassic Age relic and now the emcee/producer known to the U.S. as Esoteric has risen off the coast of Tokyo Bay, bringing chaos, crisis, and hysteria with him. Armed only with the sounds of 70's and 80's Japanese classics, Esoteric must strike against the uncompromising forces that aim to dismember him. He calls upon Godzilla, Rodan, Force Five, Ultraman, the Shogun Warriors, early Japanese surf, punk, and electro bands, and even the Japanese Spiderman to aid him in his fight! The sound he created, which he calls "Mecha Mecha," stands as the boldest of the daring directions Esoteric has taken his music. With his recent genre-bending efforts such as A New Dope, Egoclapper, and Esoteric vs. Gary Numan, the world needed to hear how he handles the beautiful country of Japan. Much tokusatsu is brought on this feature length epic depicting one man's struggle with life as an English speaking Bostonian. All tracks produced by Esoteric. Features Main Flow, King Magnetic (Army Of The Pharoahs), Moe Pope
(Project Move/Megaphone), Nejel Mongrel (8th Wonder/Japan), Eddie Meeks, Will C. + KARMA. Continuing a historic and coveted twelve year career, the street-tested, taste maker-approved new sound of 7L & Esoteric has evolved again. The electronic fun of their last group record, A New Dope, (compared to Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique by several publications including HHC), and the hellish tempest of abrasive sounds and untouched samples that defined Esoteric’s first solo studio offering, Egoclapper, now gives way to yet another full-length opus. Exclusive instrumentals with purchase, encoded at 320 kbps.

With an illustrious career as a part of the indie hip-hop movement, Ohio's Blueprint has started his own label (Wieghtless), released two albums with RJD2 (as Soul Position), and also collaborated with Rhymesayers Entertainment for the release of his magnum opus solo release, 1988. Now, Print has paid tribute to one of his favorite classic acts, Funkadelic with this new remix album, which is being offered free with any purchase at hiphopsite.com. Get Blueprint Vs. Funkadelic now!

Giant Panda has returned! Giant Panda’s debut album, Fly School Reunion, dropped in 2005 and was received by unsuspecting ears that caught the raw sounds bursting forth.With their sophomore effort however, Giant Panda has evidently “graduated”.Electric Laser is the name of the game, and GP plays it well.

The production, foremost, is in many ways its predecessor, and yet it isn’t.The drums still bang, with snares and kicks dominating the forefront of a large portion of the production.However, the melodies, chops, and loops aren’t “traditionally” jazzy or funky (that’s not to say they don’t have that type of quality, so to speak).Rather, thick, electro-fused samples are laced deep in the cuts of this record providing a much more futuristic but very present musical landscape. A track such as “Justin Case” is a nice introduction to newcomers (just in case you didn’t know) but also an introduction to the style of the album to already established fans of Giant Panda.

The writing on the album is what makes this album standout more prominently for those already acquainted to Giant Panda.Humor (see “CinemaX” and “Do The Robot In Cyberspace”) and more serious notes (see “AIM” and “Let it Go”) are found all throughout the album, showing a different side of the Panda’s fur.Like a caged animal, Giant Panda can rage with speaker pumpin’ tracks such as “Speakers Pop” and “Speakers Funk”.The album was also recorded and mixed on analog tape, giving it extra warmth and harmonic punch.Overall Electric Laser is a step forward for Giant Panda, but still honors it’s true school mentality for their original fans.

Singles include "Where's My Money" from Busta Rhymes and "Nickname" from the brand new artist Qadir. The perfect summer anthem "I'm So Fly," featuring Fat Joe and Fabolous is inspired by Grand Theft Auto IV and while included on the album is not in the game.

"The Grand Theft Auto games have always featured stunning soundtracks and the amount of eclectic music in Grand Theft Auto IV goes above and beyond anything we have been able to do before" said Sam Houser, Founder and Executive Producer of Rockstar Games, "DJ Green Lantern's contributions give the soundtrack a true New York flavor and we're excited to be releasing his full album to fans."

"From making mixtapes, to being on the radio, to touring with the biggest artists on the planet, and then for the biggest video game title to solicit me to create exclusive music is something most people could only dream about, it's like a graduation," said Green. "Rockstar Games understood what I bring to the table as far as not just presenting music, but creating music."
