Description

Phase 3

If Christian hip-hop had a Mount Rushmore, Sup the Chemist (Chris Cooper) would be front and center. Named the #1 Christian Rapper of All-Time by Rapzilla, his pioneering work with SFC (Soldiers For Christ) not only set the foundation for an entire genre but also built an infrastructure that continues to support artists today. With razor-sharp lyricism, hard-hitting beats, and a mission to reach those outside the church walls, Sup helped elevate faith-based hip-hop from an underground movement to a force that demanded attention.

Originally released in 1992 on BAI/Broken Records, Phase III stands as one of the most important hip-hop albums of its time. It seamlessly blends reggae, jazz, and R&B influences into its production, pushing creative boundaries long before genre-blending was commonplace. This long out-of-print classic has been reissued and is now available on 2-LP Lime Green Vinyl in a stunning gatefold jacket with full lyrics.

Key Features:

• Limited to just 200 copies, making it a must-have for collectors.
