Artist: BUCK 65 Title: Situation
Format: 2xLP Catalog
Number:
SFR011
Price: $17.50 Label: Strange Famous
Release
Date:
11/5/07
***Buck 65 was on the tip of everyone's tongues in 2005 with his critically acclaimed record, This Right Here Is Buck 65, lauded by Rolling Stone, Spin, Entertainment Weekly, Blender, the New York Times, CMJ, Alternative Press, URB, XLR8R, Remix, and Magnet, among others. While Buck found great success in America, his label V2 was on its last legs and, following his record's release, folded. While waiting to get through the red tape, he made a record with Tortoise (which saw no American release), moved to Paris, fell in love, scored a film, won a Juno (he also co-hosted said awards show with Pamela Anderson), and toured the globe. He settled in after all that and made his most realized work yet-- Situation, out on Strange Famous Records/Warner Bros. worldwide.

Strange Famous Records is a new endeavor from renowned musician and savvy businessman, Sage Francis. Sage Francis and Buck 65 were reputed foes for a time; the two are now good friends and Sage Francis, as Buck 65's biggest advocate, lobbied to release Situation in the United States on his label.

Situation serves as Buck 65's first LP to be released in the United States since his blow-up from This Right Here is Buck 65. With its basis centered around the many defining events of 1957, Situation recognizes the true creation of underground and independent culture that happened 50 years ago and the enticing idea that we are on the cusp of a similar renaissance. And while Buck 65's music truly defines its own genre, Situation is a raw and powerful return to classic hip-hop delivered in Buck 65's seasoned style.

Format: CD Catalog
Number:
SFR010CD
Price: $12.00 Label: Strange Famous
Release
Date:

***Personal Journals, the debut album from Sage Francis, was originally released on Anticon Records in 2002. Since then, Sage has been on countless national and international tours, released his 1st album for Epitaph Records, "A Healthy Distrust", and started his own record label, Strange Famous Records.

One of the best selling indie-hop records to date, Personal Journals defined a fresh new era for the underground music world. In 2007, Personal Journals fell back into the full ownership of Sage Francis, hence, the re-release of this ground breaking album on his independent label.
