Mello Music Holiday Clearance

December 14, 2012

Despite the massive success procured by Rick Ross and his Maybach Music henchmen in recent years, a significant fraction of today’s hiphop fans relate the iconic “MMG” stamp more closely with Mello Music Group, one of the most thriving (truly) independent hiphop labels working right now.  Not only the long-term home for underground mainstay, Oddisee, who according Shady Records Director of A&R, Dart Parker, “is the first act I’d sign if I were running an indie label,” Mello Music is also responsible for introducing acts such as Apollo Brown, Trek Life and Has-Lo to an international audience…

They’re also one of the few hiphop labels out that still presses vinyl, let alone any kind of physical copies.  Through the rest of December, MMG is having a clearance sale on all CD and vinyl via Bandcamp; visit the link below.  Keeping with the holiday spirit, I’ve also included some great free tracks they’ve given us in the last month or so.  (Having a bitch of a time embedding the Bandcamp player, so I’ve just linked them w/ artwork.
