Hitting shelves across the UK on the 4th of August, NOW have once again come up with the goods with their new release, NOW That's What I Call Old Skool. Featuring 60 of the very best Hip Hop and R'n'B tracks from the 80's onwards, this is an essential buy for anyone who grew up in the age of Old Skool. From Biggie to the Beastie Boys, Fugees to LL Cool J, all the icons of an era-defining genre are here. It's the perfect compilation for the end of the summer, enough to persuade any 90's kid to dust off that boombox and crack out a snapback.

With a raw and ready set of songs, let NOW take you back in time to the early days, and pay homage to the godfathers of Rap, the trailblazers of modern black music, and the architects of the hip hop and grime scenes today with such classics as Mama Said Knock You Out and Straight Outta Compton.

This album is a Gangster's Paradise, perfect for those who don't want No Scrubs but love to Bump N' Grind and Jump Around. So if you know your Dre from your NWA, and can remember, without shuddering, a time when Justin Timberlake was peroxide blonde and in no way ashamed of it, this is CD for you to kick back to, and take a break from this Hard Knock Life.
