The long-overdue return of a West Coast underground classic.
Originally released in 2002, O.S.T. by L.A. hip-hop duo People Under the Stairs is a golden-era love letter that never goes out of style. Built entirely from dusty loops and sharp-witted rhymes, this album cements PUTS’ rep as champions of DIY hip-hop — self-produced, self-contained, and endlessly re-playable.
Often described as “The Steely Dan of Hip-Hop” for their meticulous studio craft and deep sample knowledge, PUTS cultivated a cult following by staying true to the roots - no features, no frills, just beats and bars. O.S.T. is their creative apex: from the euphoric opener “Intro” to the funky party-starting “The Dig” and the heartfelt storytelling of “The L.A. Song,” it’s pure underground gold.
This newly remastered edition comes housed in a glossy gatefold jacket with updated liner notes and printed inner sleeves, featuring over 100 original reviews from its first release. Long out of print and fetching triple digits on Discogs, this reissue finally puts a fan-favorite back on turntables where it belongs.
