NEW: Recorded around 1996 - 1998. The main group at the forefront of the First Wu-Tang extended collective of super groups then known as U.K (United Kingdom/United Kings/Universal Kingdom). The UK was started by C.O.I.N.S, Sunz Of Man, Royal Fam, Black Rose Family, Beggaz, Brooklyn Zu and Makeba MoonCycle. The group later expanded with Popa Wu, Brooklyn Zu and others into Population Clik.
C.O.I.N.S. (Calculating Old Into New School) was at the forefront of this movement, completing their album which was initially meant to be released by various labels such as Wu-Tang records and others, You'll Move Records released an EP "Who Got Change" in 1998 but that was the only released project from the group outside of featuring on a number of soundtracks, compilation and features. Consisting of 6 members, Armel went on to be signed to GZA/Genius Liquid swords entertainment, some of the members got locked and others went on to do solo projects such as Holy Smokes and Spanky Splash. Album came about as a fan of the group who worked closely with Holy Smokes on a project out in Europe kept bothering Smokes about the project and eventually and luckily after 6-7 years of working together and closely, they found a lost cassette tape containing the full album. This album is on the same length as the rare and highly sort after Royal Fam's "Black Castle" album.
Fully produced by the groups main producer Life Exists (L.E) and features the first lady and only queen of the UK posse the lyrical and talented Makeba Mooncycle. This classic is a vintage era hip-hop from the golden era. The found cassette tape was taken to the studio and resurrected, mastered while still maintaining that gritty sound. Its a timeless piece that should have seen the light of the day more than 20 years ago.
