Respecta.is - The Ultimate Hip Hop Portal

After releasing three albums with Self Taught and one album with Cloud City Classic, Cliff Herman drops his first solo album, Nostalgia Aint What It Used To Be.

The album was five years in the making. It was a side project that developed over the years while working on Self Taught and Cloud City Classic albums.

Making this album did nothing for Cliff's health. An introverted hermit by nature, he mulled inside a dark room huffing back Swisha Sweets and guzzling 24 packs of MGD.

While contemplating the 90’s he used this mindset to select some dusty forgotten samples and write songs to evoke foggy memories of the “golden-era." A self proclaimed jack of all trades, Cliff oversaw the production of all of the beats, writing of all the lyrics, recording of all the songs, mixing and mastering.

The album features appearances from:

Anonymouz (Ill-Legitimate)
Ashleigh Eymann
Azrael
Francesca Belcourt
Friends with the Help (Young Nige, Low Lux, K-Rec),
Inkspill (Cloud City Classic, Mur-diddly-urdlers)
Jay Rod (Self Taught)
Lenny Diko (Up In Your Basement)
