I Need a Beat: 40 Years of Def Jam Recordings
四十年前，Def Jam Recordings 在纽约大学的宿舍里成立。这个大学生的雄心壮志在音乐历史上掀起了波澜，这种影响至今依然感受到，并继续涌现。它帮助将嘻哈音乐从地下纽约市音乐推向了全球主流流行音乐。为了庆祝这个厂牌的周年纪念，VMP与DJR合作推出了《I Need a Beat: 40 Years of Def Jam Recordings》，这是一套包含5张专辑、9张黑胶的盒装套组，讲述了Def Jam Recordings故事的片段，提供了从宿舍到董事会，再到几乎每一个地球房间的厂牌快照。限量发售750个，将不会再版。现在就拥有这段Def Jam录音历史的珍贵藏品。 |

A story told through five albums, featuring rappers who contributed to the Def Jam Recordings story in ways small and big.
The goal with this box was not to try to capture the full scope of Def Jam Recordings 40 years; hip-hop has evolved something like ten times during the label’s lifetime. Instead, we wanted to focus on albums that captured snapshots of the label through its upheavals, high points, and transitions. It covers the label’s emergence from its NYC-centric boom-bap heyday with some of its earliest stars (EPMD and Public Enemy). It continues with the label turning its eyes southward (Scarface) while launching the best New York rapper of this century (Cam’ron), ending with the label’s best young MC on top of his game (Vince Staples).

VMP Anthology goes beyond the five albums included in your box. Alongside your box and the albums within it, we provide in-depth, original Listening Notes. Featuring an introduction by Jeff Weiss and contributions from Jaelani Turner-Williams, Michael Penn II, and Dylan Green, the booklet will serve as a guide through these albums. VMP Anthology isn’t just a box set that’s supposed to gather dust on your shelves — it’s an immersive and transformative story that comes alive for you to spend weeks (or longer!) inside of. We can’t wait for you to dive deeper into Def Jam Recordings’ history and the albums in this box.
