The Acetate.

My Homie Alex D (aka the BoogieMonster) sent me a link to this crazy ebay auction for a great piece of hip hop history, an acetate of Ultramagnetic MC's super ill Headhunters watermelon man/sp1200 drum laced Chuck Chillout Shoutout. approx 87/88.. and you can tell.
It sold for US$2827.00 and it is worth every penny.. It is rare as rocking horse shit, but lets have as many listens as we like for free here at Digginforalivin.
