The long-awaited 20th anniversary edition of "THA MASTA BLUSTA," the debut album released in 1997 by ILLMARIACHI, the legendary unit formed by Yato and TOKONA-X, and a landmark work in Japanese rap, is now available on vinyl!
With the release of TOKONA-X's documentary "KING OF BULLSH*T -THE SAGA OF TOKONA-X-," attention has once again been drawn to ILLMARIACHI and "THA MASTA BLUSTA," which can be considered the starting point of TOKONA's career, and this long-awaited release comes at a time when attention is once again being drawn to ILLMARIACHI and "THA MASTA BLUSTA."
In 2017, 20 years after the release, under the supervision of Hatato, the two tracks "NAGOYA QUEENS" and "Younggunz" were replaced with unreleased, treasured original lyric versions that had been shelved at the time, and all the tracks were newly mixed and mastered to update the much talked about 20th Anniversary Edition, which is now finally available on vinyl!
