Description
Gangstarr
Vinyl: Near Mint except for a tiny bubble on first track of record 1and a piece of tape on the b-side label of Record 1 which can be easily removed if done slowly.
Otherwise the vinyl is almost like new!
This Album has only been played twice. (I received a store promo and started using that one instead from that point on).
Jacket:
Jacket has crate wear from storage and has collected dirt and dust from storage and has corner creases which forces me to rate it as Very Good plus, But I will include a Clear Plastic Protective cover for the Jacket to put it up to par with the Wax.

Hard To Earn is the fourth album from the hip hop duo Gang Starr. It was released in March 8, 1994 and featured the singles "Mass Appeal", "DWYCK" and "Code Of The Streets". Musically the album is constructed around a harder, more stripped-down sound that is distinctively less melodic than the duo's previous work.
Guest appearances on the album come from Group Home, Jeru The Damaja, and Big Shug. At the time, all were part of the Gang Starr Foundation, which made the album a stepping-stone for future DJ Premier-helmed projects by Group Home and Jeru. The single "DWYCK" also featured hip hop duo Nice & Smooth.
Hard To Earn is also the duo's first album to carry the "Parental Advisory" label.
