Nu Vintage returns with his highly anticipated new album, The Beat Bodega, a follow-up to his acclaimed 2023 release Vibrations In Color.
Like a crate-digger’s dream corner shop, The Beat Bodega offers a vibrant assortment of beats and textures, stacked high with dusty samples, laid-back rhythms, and head-nodding vibes. Adding to the flavor are collaborations with fellow beat luminaries Pat Van Dyke, Emapea, and MichRyc, each bringing their own distinct flair to Nu Vintage’s finely tuned production.
True to Cold Busted’s dedication to high-quality physical editions, The Beat Bodega will be available in carefully crafted formats: a limited run of 500 copies on 180-gram white vinyl and 100 copies on baby blue cassette tape, alongside its digital release.
With The Beat Bodega, Nu Vintage reaffirms his place in the modern instrumental hip hop movement while pushing his artistry forward, offering listeners a richly detailed soundtrack that feels both rooted and refreshingly new.
