Handsome Boy Modeling School – White People LP (White vinyl) Online Sale

Formed in 1999 by acclaimed hip-hop producers Dan the Automator (Gorillaz, Dr. Octagon, Deltron 3030) and Prince Paul (Stetsasonic, de la Soul, Gravediggaz,) Handsome Boy Modeling School is a concept project that instantly turned heads and brought a whole new dynamic to the world of hip-hop. Hidden behind the world-class and all-star lineup, the group created a project that parodied vain, consumerist, materialistic and self-absorbed members of upper-class society. While the 1999 release of their debut project, So… How s Your Girl?, helped to set the tone and introduce the world to Handsome Boy Modeling School, it was their 2004 follow-up, White People, which helped to solidify the project as a game-changer amongst hip-hop heads. With Dan the Automator and Prince Paul behind the boards, White People, featured a stacked list of features including but not limited to de la Soul, Jack Johnson, Lord Finesse, Mike Shonoda, Pharrell Williams, El-P and RZA. Touted by John Murphy of MusicOMH as, the most innovative, original and enjoyable hip-hop album since Outkast s Speakerboxxx The Love Below, White People has undoubtedly become a somewhat overlooked gem of it s era. Topping out at #168 on the Billboard 200, #79 on the Top R&B Hip-Hop Albums and #4 on the Top Heatseekers charts, this release has only grown in popularity over the years as it is discovered by more and more hip-hop heads looking for the left-of-center.
