Fortress Entertainment Compilation Vol. 1 (1994-1996) - 2026
LP - 2026 - HHE
HHE makes a powerful return with a release that digs deep into the roots of underground hip-hop. In collaboration with Fortress Entertainment, this first installment marks the beginning of a series of projects that promise to unearth more hidden gems from the label’s archives.
This record stands as a true time capsule, showcasing rare and essential recordings from the mid-90s. It kicks off with the full Natural Elements EP from 1994, back when the group was still a six-man crew, featuring an early appearance from the legendary KA (RIP). The project also includes a previously unreleased track from Nightbreed, the mythical duo formed by KA and Kev.
Further enriching the collection are an early classic from L-Swift, a hard-hitting track from the Raidermen, and an outstanding unreleased demo by female emcee Essence, also recorded in 1994.
Available on vinyl (200 Splatter Vinyl - HHV Records Exclusive / 100 Color Vinyl / 200 Black Vinyl) and CD (300 copies with bonus DVD).
