On the West Coast, gangsta rap held sway in hip-hop as

the 21st century began. The alternative and conscious rap

music of the early-to-mid-90s had all but faded into the

underground. The scene was set for a comeback, perhaps

as a backlash to the perceived violence and misogyny of

gangsta rap's content. Leading the resurgence of

alternative hip-hop were groups like Jurassic 5, and recent

signees to Capitol Records; a West coast trio that had

been building steam underground since the early 90s

called Dilated Peoples.
Since its 2000 release this influential record, which

heralded the return of alternative hip-hop, has never seen

a vinyl reissue. With that, Get On Down-always on top of

giving the greatest hip-hop albums their due-is proud to

present this re-release of The Platform. The rhymes are

still fresh, the production is still pristine, and the album is

now back on vinyl for the first time in 17 years.
