Pharcyde – Labcabincalifornia T-Shirt

Description

The sophomore album the critics slept on, and the one the heads never stopped playing.

November 1995. The Pharcyde follow up the cartoon chaos of Bizarre Ride II with something quieter, darker, and way more honest. Fame, drugs, girls who left, money that didn’t. And behind the boards, a then-unknown producer from Detroit called Jay Dee, before the world learned to call him J Dilla. “Runnin'” floated on a Stan Getz and Luiz Bonfá bossa nova loop. “Drop” got a Spike Jonze video shot backwards and played in reverse.

Critics called it a sophomore slump. Time called them wrong. Labcabincalifornia is the record that put Dilla’s swing on the map, Fatlip’s last full album with the crew, and a blueprint for every mellow, jazz-soaked West Coast backpack record that came after. This tee honors Imani, Slimkid3, Bootie Brown and Fatlip at their most human.
