    Prodigy, J Dilla and Kid Cudi are among a number of Hip Hop artists to feature on Record Store Day’s list of upcoming releases for Black Friday (November 24).

    A picture disc release of Prodigy’s 2000 solo single “Keep It Thoro” is one of two releases from the late Mobb Deep rapper. There will also be a 2-LP release of P’s debut solo album, H.N.I.C.

    A two-volume collection of music from J Dilla will be released on limited color vinyl (V. 1 on green and V. 2 on purple) through Yancey Media Group. A portion of the proceeds will go directly to Dilla’s two daughters, whose profiles grace the album covers.

    Kid Cudi’s most recent album, Passion, Pain & Demon Slayin’, will also have its own 2-LP release.

    Elsewhere, Three 6 Mafia’s Chpt. 2: World Domination will be available on vinyl for the first time ever in celebration of the project’s 20th anniversary.

    Danger Mouse’s collaboration with Run the Jewels and Big Boi, “Chase Me,” will be released on 12” vinyl. The cut, from the Baby Driver soundtrack, will have a limited release of just 2,000 copies.
