/r/hiphoptapes
A place for your favorite hip hop cassettes.
Do you love hip hop? Do you love physical media? Do you love cassettes? Well then this is the subreddit for you. Coming from r/hiphopvinyl, I decided there's always room for another niche subreddit, so here it is, a subreddit dedicated to hip hop cassettes.
Rules:
1. Be nice and respectful to fellow collectors.
- Straight forward rule here. Be respectful to other users. If you dislike an artist/album being posted, please do not cause a scene/start a flame war. No name calling or personal attacks. Users who violate this rule will be given one warning, then banned on the second offense. We're all lovers of hip hop, in all its forms, so please remember this when considering your comments.
2. Posts must be related to the sub.
- Similar to the no spam rule, keep posts/comments relevant to this sub. If it's not related to hip hop and cassettes, please refrain from posting.
3. No spam.
- Please do not post links to your music, even if it's related to hip hop. If you have a mixtape/album being released on tape, then please feel free to share. Otherwise self-posts not related to physical tapes will be removed as spam.
4. No low-effort posts.
- All I ask is that you don't photo dump. If you're making a post, please say a little something about what it is you're posting. Whether it be you favorite tracks, a review, background information about the artist/album, etc., just say something. Posts with no comment from OP will be removed.

New releases on tape
Thought I’d get peoples thoughts on new releases on tape. They don’t make tape 2 cassettes anymore so all these new tapes are on a type 1 normal position tape which is never great quality.. Also, the artwork is often limited with no info on the inside. Old tapes used to have photos and lyrics which was great. Another thing is the length of these albums which range from 20-30 mins (15mins per side). For 15-20 bucks, I find that a bit short.. Thoughts?

Any good player recommendations? (No decks)
Looking to get into collecting and recording tapes but I don't want to go full-force for starters, so I'm thinking about getting something small (a la wlakman) or some sort of boombox with built-in speakers.
Anything you can rec? Tons of stuff in the Wallapop used market so I am probably going to find something good out there. Let me know!
