Bloods & Crips - Bangin' On Wax 2… The Saga Continues [2LP Half & Half Effect Red/Blue Color Vinyl]

The Bloods and Crips’ debut “Bangin’ on Wax” (1993) — which we reissued in 2023 to an incredible reception — inspired us to dig even deeper into this iconic catalog. The follow-up, “The Saga Continues”, originally dropped only on CD in 1994. Now, for the first time ever, we’re proud to bring it to wax — pressed on solid Blue and Red vinyl, of course. This concept was a pivotal moment in West Coast gangsta rap, uniting members of L.A.’s two most infamous sets. Crips from Compton, Watts, and Long Beach, and Bloods from Inglewood and Los Angeles auditioned for the project, with the sharpest MCs selected for the final lineup. All proceeds from the original “Bangin’ on Wax” album went toward improving local schools and parks for the community’s children. Over 30 years later, the lone CD pressing regularly fetches £50+ on the secondary market — and now the album finally arrives on vinyl. Sleeker in production and delivery, this record carries that true G-Funk swagger, tipping its hat to Warren G, Snoop, DJ Quik, and even Dr. Dre.
