strange request but i have my reasons!. ... hopefully some of you can help.

can any one think of some hip hop (preferably post 2000 more commercial stuff - even RnB) that were released on 45 rpm 12"s?

i assume there more likely to be uk or european releases, as all the other ones i have are uk releases

heres a few that i know of already:
roots manuva "witness the fitness"
busta rhymes "make it clap"
snoop dogg "from the chuch to the palace"
snoop dogg "beautiful"

thanks.

I'm not totally sure, but I guess my Guilty Simpson/J Dilla - Man's World is 45 rpm. I gotta check it, but I KNOW I have a hip-hop 12" in 45 rpm.

12's are hard to come by. Anyone know of 78's, and which are some gems?

I inherited lots of 78's... their freakin metal or something... mad heavy. They are all ancient though.... 40's and 50's music. Some even earlier. Mostly Jazz but there is also some old soulish stuff too.

I can't even play em... don't have the rigt gear though I imagine they are gold mines for samples.

Prince - "Let's Go Crazy (Special Dance Mix)" b/w "Erotic City (Make Love Not War Erotic City Come Alive)"
http://www.discogs.com/Prince-And-The-Revolution-Lets-Go-Crazy/release/115079

I used to play the intro to "Let's Go Crazy" at 33 RPM for that slow intro to my mixes when I was in High School.
