Another amazing work from Blu. Can’t get enough. From the first one I saw until now, I’ve got to admit it’s getting better. It’s getting better all the time.
This stuff is unreal.

34,000 Cassettes were sold in 2009, per Nielsen Soundscan. It was the worst year for cassette sales since the record-industry data provider started keeping sales numbers in 1991. At its peak in the mid 80s, music cassettes sold 900 million units a year.
