Rushden & Diamonds - 2010 (Digi) (CD)

Rushden & Diamonds first got their start writing rhymes and making beats while digging in the crates of 1980's rnb and royal orchestral music. The duo's early productions would eventually make their way onto R&D's debut release 2010, a critically acclaimed double album hip-hopera. 2010 is a genre-bending double concept album that plays out like an audio comic book. Telling the story of both Michael Rushden and Karl Lord Edward Diamonds who embark on a musical journey set in an alternate not-too distant future. Rushden & Diamonds: 2010 is a modern day opera, hip hopera, fusing both hip-hop music and a dramatic yet humorous storyline. This deluxe version includes all 38 original tracks on 2 CD's of Rushden & Diamonds hip-hopera, which fuses together original songs with an integrated radio playesque storyline.
