I’m not too sure
So I’ll keep on spying
Cause I don’t think
That record’s worth buying!

I can't be the only one who thought the line "Unscrupulous competitors may confuse the two; we do not" in the description referred to mixing up Russell and the late rapper Nipsey Hustle...right?



Seriously, please tell me I'm not the only one.

I wouldn't think it's worth the $4500 asking price! Would be nice to hear a snippet of the record as there's no comment on the quality of the recording.

It's no ordinary record. It's an acetate master used in the production process. Playing it just to make a sample for the auction (or for any purpose really) would have the chance of causing damage to the disc. Still a steep price though.

Play it backwards and Nipsey tells you to avenge yourself against bullies and such. 

(only if you get said acetate from disc jockey Gene Simmons, of course)
