All Natural

Musically, the album stands out for its boom-bap / old-school sound — classic beats, precise sampling, tight scratching. It’s a “skills before gimmicks” statement.
Lyrically, Capital D delivers socially aware verses and self-reflection: calling out “wack MCs,” celebrating authenticity, exploring life and the hip-hop movement.
A track like “50 Years” imagines the future of society and hip-hop itself.

No Additives, No Preservatives (Xtra Phat) is more than a hip-hop album — it’s a manifesto of independence and authenticity, a celebration of raw craftsmanship in an era before digital saturation.
For vinyl collectors, underground rap enthusiasts, or anyone curious about Chicago’s late-’90s scene, this LP is a must-own piece of hip-hop history.
