Thread Starter | Where can I get good hiphop acapellas (90s golden era) Im DJing in a 2 weeks. Im tryin to put together a set of all my original beats with some dope acapellas from the good ol days. Im lookin for shit like Tribe, De La, Redman, Gangstarr, early Biggie shit, Group Home, Jeru, early Jay-z, etc. Ive checked Limewire and Soulseek, plus some websits like acapellas4U.com and whatnot. Lots of the acapellas Ive found are DIY, and suck in quality. Ive got a lot, between my online findings and my record collection, but unfortunately I had all my crates robbed in 2000, so I lost all my vinyl from that era. Im spinning all night, so I need a good amount of music, and Im falling short right now. Plus the gig is a week from this saturday, so I dont have time to do any serious digging. are there any websites or filesharing things out there that Ive overlooked. Im a record collecter, so Im kinda out of the loop when it comes to filesharing. any help would be appreciated. If anyone's got some crates for sale from back in the day, let me know. |

Acapellas4u has always been my go to place...other than that it has to be Limewire. There are a few other sites out there but most of them are pretty dead.  | |

| "a lot of 90's 12" singles have acappella versions on them." True.... and i have a ton of that classic vinyl for sale soon.... send me a list of your most wanted if you like, or all your wanted vinyl and i'll look through and letcha know what i got for ya..or anyone else for that matter... I got so many 12" and original LP's etc, plus Soul, Funk n Jazz... although they'll be harder to let go in some cases.... in fact it's all hard to see go.... i love vinyl! But moved house, young child and i'm outta shelving space so i gotta trim down the vinyl mountain a lil...... so classic Hip Hop/Rap/Electro/Early modern RnB (90's) and swingbeat, Early house music 12"s seem a good place to start... Anyone here feel free to PM or post wanted list before my collection hits Ebay.. Slutzfirst.... I'm in the UK so expect Postage! Peace.. Good luck with ya gig though... Zz.

| yeah, its best to find the vinyl....a lot of times, the quality from those sites sounds garbage....get digging and you know the quality is good. a lot of those tracks can be found easily and are not expensive. |
