Great music...Disgusting coloured vinyl. How can Nas not step in and say hold on one moment that looks like shit! -

Disappointing!!!! Why do say GOLD when it’s not GOLD at all ? I when DMX dropped his „it’s dark n hell is hot“ LP in gold. There’s a big difference between gold and khaki.
To me it’s khaki, not gold at all.
Talking bout the sound. It’s good. No issues here.
