With the Copycats video recently passing 700.000 views, it’s safe to say Joe Kickass & O.S.T.R.’s first international collabo was a gigantic hit. To celebrate this event, and to honor the many fans’ request for a more tangible version, Asfalt Records decided to press this gem on a limited edition clear vinyl 10 inch.

Just as we were about to send out the press release and tell you where you could buy yourself a copy, we got a call from the record company that it had already been sold out the very same day. Since it’s a hand numbered limited edition release we are obviously not about to do a repress. So, for the people who missed the opportunity to get their hands on the wax, we decided to make the tracks on the 10 inch available trough download.

Besides the original and previously unavailable instrumental version this record also contains two unreleased tracks by both artists. With ‘Bloki Lubia Funk’ O.S.T.R. makes an ode to the hiphop heads in the streets over a phat beat by Killing Skills. These producers teamed up with up and coming beatmaker Stylewars to give a glimpse of what’s to come with Joe Kickass’ soulfull classic ‘Just So You Know’

This collaboration came into being after the two did a show together and instantly grew a mutual respect. The result is this smooth operator called “Copycats” that they immediately started working on the day after the gig.
