The Raw (7” Red Vinyl) *Record Store Day Exclusive
Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
Fourteen years after dropping the single as their first-ever release, Coalmine Records celebrates Record Store Day 2019 with a limited vinyl rerelease of “The Raw” featuring hard-hitting verses from Saigon, Inspectah Deck, and Bekay. Back on April 12, 2005, the single’s initial release marked the beginning of a storied run of no-nonsense Hip-Hop from the Brooklyn-based label.

For this very special rerelease, Coalmine Records is paying homage to the pioneering indie label, Delicious Vinyl, in remembrance of their co-founder, Matt Dike, who sadly passed in March 2018. The single’s label artwork includes a clever flip of their iconic logo, while the record itself is pressed on red vinyl to play off the track title.

Includes unlimited streaming of The Raw (Digi 12) via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
