"Easy Mixtape" LP de Cro

CRO's 'Easy Mixtape' is now available as a limited edition, colored purple 12inch vinyl (180g) in a cardboard sleeve, including a printed inner sleeve.

With each new release, CRO takes rap to the next level while still making it look as easy as the first day. As a reminder and homage, CRO is now dropping a true throwback moment: the legendary 'Easy' mixtape from 2011 is officially available on all digital streaming platforms for the first time, and it is also being released exclusively on vinyl.

Offered as a free download, CRO's first full-length release caused an unprecedented hype at the time. Not only did it kick-start an unparalleled career and already legendary legacy for the masked rapper, with six number-one Albums and countless gold and platinum successes, but it also had a significant impact on German rap.

'Easy,' the name of the mixtape, lived up to its promise. Suddenly, a new lightness entered the almost declared dead genre. No one laid their lyrics as effortlessly over the smooth flipped sample beats and embraced big melodies and even bigger hits like CRO did. As much as the iconic cover, playing with the hipster aesthetic of the early 2010s, was a testament to that time, the impact of the release remains timeless and continues to resonate to this day. 'Easy' was a real game-changer and the soundtrack of an entire generation. It is an essential piece of German hip-hop history that is now finally available to all fans with its release on digital streaming platforms.
