Brooklyn-based hip-hop-slash-electronica label Fool’s Gold Records celebrated its fifth birthday today (December 18) by dropping Loosies, a 22-track rap compilation featuring cuts from FG signees such as “Witit” spitter Danny Brown and Best New Artist Grande Marshall, alongside “Bath Salt” users Flatbush Zombies and Rare Chandeliers non-sequitur laureate Action Bronson. The mix boasts production from AraabMuzik and Fool’s Gold founders A-Trak and Nick Catchdubs (who curated the call sheet), among others. Notable contributions include “Molly Ringwald” — the Danny Brown and AraabMuzik hybrid SPIN described as “true to their respective styles,” emphasizing Brown’s “distinctively cartoonish voice” and AraabMuzik’s “gothic-dystopian electronic backdrops” — and A-Trak’s own “Piss Test (Remix),” a siren-sounding stunner packed with cameos from El-P, Juicy J, Jim Jones, Flosstradamus, and Flatbush Zombies.
Stream Loosies in its entirety below, followed by a full track list. The collection is also available for purchase on iTunes for $14.99 or as a cigarette-shaped USB drive that comes with digital liner notes and a continuous DJ mix courtesy A-Trak and Catchdubs, all served in a $30 box set expected to ship the first week of January.
