The first disc is trash on some of the songs, the instrumentals just sounds very distorted from what they should sound like, but the second disc is perfect and the music overall is great ofc

Malojurus

Weirdly my copy sounds great, don't deny the fact that the first disc feels lighter tho. So if you can't get original at a good price, get this. This pressing seems to be a mixed bag tho.

RUsich155

Sounds like total garbage. Seriously what the hell Jesus Christ.

Xirmiu

opposite for me. disc 1 is 166g and disc 2 is 154g - haven't listened yet but will report back if anything off. I have an OG pressing to compare to as well.

Reddefender

OG pressing 8/10, this pressing 6/10 - whether an original at 4x the cost is worth it is up to you. If you love this album, it's still worth purchasing this version.

I'm waiting for your comparison ! please let us know

Jay

Anybody else notice with their copy that disc 1 is substantially lighter than disc 2? I'm getting 141 grams and 174 grams, respectively, on my scale. Never had that happen before. Bizarre.

Zodama

I have seen that with the first Kendrick Lamar album. But I've changed it. Just ordered the Mos Def, wait & see.

Apparently, some amazon customer confirms the different weights: 'The first LP weighs 148 grams on my scale. Fine, not heavyweight. But a little warped and a little flimsy. There are chunks of vinyl sticking up around the spindle hole and around the edges. The sounds is a little thin and compressed. Not to put too fine a point on it, but... this is just a crappily-pressed LP.The second LP, on the other hand, weighs 176 grams. It’s noticably thicker (so noticeable that it caused me to pull out my scale). And it’s not warped. There aren’t any random pieces of vinyl coming off of it. And it sounds good'

FINALLY ugh I've been waiting FOREVER to get this for a decent price

Mikale

https://www.vinyl-digital.com/Hip-Hop-Rap/The-Ecstatic.html?listtype=search&searchparam=Mos%20def Finally, this Mos Def classic gets a proper reissue treatment. “The Ecstatic” is the 2009 fourth studio album by American rapper Mos Def. Released in June 2009, The Ecstatic charted at number nine on the Billboard 200.After venturing further away from hip hop with an acting career and two poorly received albums, Mos Def signed with Downtown Records and recorded “The Ecstatic” primarily at the Record Plant in Los Angeles. He worked with producers such as Preservation, Mr. Flash, Oh No, and Madlib, the latter two of whom reused instrumentals they had produced on Stones Throw Records. Singer Georgia Anne Muldrow, formerly of the record label, was one of the album's few guest vocalists, along with rappers Slick Rick and Talib Kweli. For its front cover, a still from Charles Burnett's 1978 film “Killer of Sheep” was reproduced in red tint.The Ecstatic was described by music journalists as a conscious and alternative hip hop record with an eccentric, internationalist quality. Mos Def's raps about global politics, love, spirituality, and social conditions were informed by the zeitgeist of the late 2000s, Black internalionalism, and Pan-Islamic ideas, as he incorporated a number of Islamic references throughout the album. Its loosely structured, lightly reverbed songs used unconventional time signatures and samples taken from a variety of international musical styles, including Afrobeat, soul, Eurodance, jazz, reggae, Latin, and Middle Eastern music. Mos Def titled “The Ecstatic” after one of his favorite novels—the 2002 Victor LaValle book of the same name—believing its titular phrase evoked his singular creative vision for the album.

Just found this at a thrift shop for $1. Had no idea how much it was worth till I checked on here. Quite happy.

Hasirri
