Since 2010, Milwaukee's Dope Folks Records has been digging up rare, unreleased and lost hip-hop from the genre's golden age and releasing it on limited-edition vinyl. Five years in, they're still unearthing some incredible discoveries. This year saw the label shine a light on overlooked acts like Omniscence, Reggie Capers and Stezo. For those who haven't been keeping up with the their new releases, the label made it a little easier this week by posting a new end of year mixtape, which includes tracks from every 12-inch it released this year, as well as others from previous releases that are still in stock.
The mixtape, and the complete tracklist, are below.
