LL Cool J X Michael Jackson - BAD '87

'87 Baby here, just celebrated my 38th birthday last month. Two of the albums that I associate most with 1987 are... BAD and BAD! I've had the idea of somehow merging these two albums for as long as I can remember. And the fact that each of them are just under 45 minutes long fits perfectly (ha!) with the caesthetic we're running over here. Something different, not your typical entry in our "The Tape Deck" catalog, and I'm not sure if I'll make it a habit--though I *do* have several double-feature type ideas... Lemme know what you think.

Raekwon - The Emperor's New Clothes (Wu-Tang Killa Bee-Sides)

(Art by: squatdeadface) Raekwon’s first album in eight years dropped last month - without a cassette version, by the way - and it’s arguably the strongest Mass Appeal Records release of 2025. When an album is shorter than 45 minutes, though, I can't help but imagine how I’d load it up with extra content onto a tape… To pair with The Emperor’s New Clothes (full album) and fill out the space allotted for a 90-minute tape, I dug up a bunch of recent-ish Raekwon/Wu-Tang member collabs: call ‘em the Wu-Tang Killa Bee-Sides. Enjoy… and turn it up!!
