As many DJ will tell you, the life blood of the UK Hip-Hop scene was the plethora of Hip-Hop Record shops that were fans and players would Bench and build on the ins and outs of our music. As the recent closure of Fat Beats L.A.& N.Y. suggests, Hip-Hop Record shops might become a thing of the past. The Kool Skool featured the phenomenum in our 2 Part memorial of the lost Soho shops, but to keep it positive The Most Influencial.com have done a 2 Part feature documenting the remaining Record shops still trading. Support your local "Mom&Pops" Shops!!!
