My Disc 1 has mislabeled A/B sides. Disappointing, but the album sounds great.

edit: never mind. My Disc 1 was not mislabeled. Can't recommend this pressing enough.

Did anyone receive the signed version of this VmP album which Erykah Badu sold via her official website? I didn't yet. Should have been arrived. But still didn't receive it. Did anyone receive the signed album?

Literally the definitive pressing of this album. Vinyl Me Please did such an amazing job for this 20th anniversary release. I own the 2016 Bernie grundman pressing and this mix just sits head and shoulders above that, sorry Bernie...🤷🏾‍♂️
Also don’t get Got, there’s still some in stock at the time of me writing this review for $45 online. Do yourself a favor and grab this one 😎

Great pressing and a great record - second disc is definitely more yellow than gold.

My copy sounds excellent with very little surface noise after a wet clean. The only noise is at the end of some sides before the run-out grooves, seems to be common for a lot of gz presses. Beyond that, my copy is great.

Side 2 of my copy, particularly Cleva, sounded distorted, but then I wet-cleaned it and it sounded great. Once cleaned, the pressing sounded really really good. Can't compare to any other pressings, but sounds so much better than the streaming version.

Just received my copy a couple of days ago. I was really looking forward to it. It’s why I joined VMP.

Anyway the first couple of songs on side 2 sound awful. Lots of popping and distortion. I’m very familiar with the album and have some experience with regard to what it should sound like. Disk 2 sounds ok.

I have other VMP releases that sound really good so I think something must be wrong with the version o received. I’ll be contacting customer service.

Got this second hand from a user on Twitter. Great Release. Comes in a clear sleeve and the OBI strip has a cocktail recipe on it. The print is good quality too. The gold text of the front cover is embossed and reflective (as well as the “VMP Essentials” text. The gatefold is beautiful and has the lyrics. The color is really representative of the cover. Mine doesn’t skip and I’ve played it 8 or 9 times (needs a wash though). Would totally recommend for ANYONE who has a sliver of interest in music.
