This vinyl reissue marks the first time that Episodes of a Hustla has been pressed since its commercial release in 1996. To celebrate the milestone, the tracklist has been upgraded from the original version to include the Stretch Armstrong Remix of “Usual Suspect,” which was only previously made available as part of the 12” single. In addition, a Part III of “Recognize & Realize,” produced by Big Ghost LTD has been added to the tracklist as a bonus track.
The album layout has been upgraded by Mr. Krum, andincludes matte finished jackets enhanced with spot gloss over the artist and title panel, with a prologue courtesy of Robbie Ettelson, founder of UNKUT.COM and the Conservative Rap Coalition. This special “orange crush” edition is hand-numbered with black poly-lined inner sleeves, and limited to just 100 copies.
