Music on Vinyl Label

Originally released in 1988, By All Means Necessary marks a pivotal moment in hip‑hop history — the rebirth of KRS‑One as The Teacher following the death of DJ Scott La Rock.

This 2015 Music On Vinyl reissue delivers the album on 180‑gram audiophile vinyl, remastered from the original tapes and pressed in the Netherlands. A clean, high‑fidelity edition of a landmark in conscious hip‑hop.
