SerioDrew Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 (edited) I actually have LinkedIn. What should I ask him? Should I link him the thread? Edit: I also contacted the seller of the two other Rapology samplers, but since you already got a reply in the meantime, I suppose he won't be able to tell me more^^ Ask him if he has volume 12 , and if he can sell it or give it to us, and if he can send us the tracklists of volumes 11-12-17-18 (just in case there are more than volume 12's Closing) We've messaged several LA-area prominent record stores, etc with no luck yet. That's a good way to find I believe there is a strong chance we'll find it that way, i'm trying to reach out sellers and people who worked at Rapologys throught the internet so we kinda cover everything we can Edited March 12, 2017 by LinkinParkDrew Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/12593-the-search-for-closing-by-xero/page/2/#findComment-272009 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seelentau Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I asked him if he could help me out with any kind of information on Vol. 12. I also messaged all members of the Urban Network LinkedIn account, asking if they can help: https://www.linkedin.com/company-beta/1053434/?pathWildcard=1053434 Problem is that on LinkedIn, you have to connect to them first before you can actually talk to them, so I'll have to wait and see if they accept my "friend request".

Skipees Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I assume so since unknown LA-area rappers are on it.

The 12 im still waiting are: 6 sellers and 6 people who worked at Rapologys.

hahninator Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 Ok let me know when you're wrapping that part up and we'll move on to contacting record stores who might have stocked releases by The Urban Network, then we can look into the Rapology releases.

Seelentau Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The guy on Discogs replied "I do not [know where to find Rapology twelve]. I'll keep an eye out for it thought. From time-to-time, I come across guys with large collections of rap CDs." Wait and see~ Also, some lucky guy snatched one of the other two Rapology CDs from a German CD store straight from under my nose.

hahninator Posted March 15, 2017 Author Share Posted March 15, 2017 For those of you who ordered Rapology 11, Lee says he think Joe did the artwork for that one."Mike used to do art for me and Joseph was my assistant when I was doing the Rapology series. I helped get them together and would introduce them at clubs like the Troubadour, Whisky, and The Mint here in L.A. I believe Joe did the artwork for the Rapology 11 as well."
