World Renowned Turntablist Rob Swift to Re-Release Album After 5 Years of Being Out Of Print

Soulful Fruit To Be Re-Released by Fat Beats Record s on November 8th

(Brooklyn, NY November 4, 2005) Fat Beats Records is proud to announce the re-release of Soulful Fruit by former X-Men/X-Exuction member Rob Swift. The album, which has been out of print for nearly 5 years, will finally be available once again as an exciting, repackaged release. Considered by many to be the first turntablist album, Soulful Fruit took the turntablism movement from the stage to record store shelves worldwide and brought the movement to the masses.

Originally released on Stones Throw Records in 1997, the album has become a collector’s item among hip-hop and turntablism aficionados. Rob’s original X-Ecutioner partners Roc Raida, Mista Sinista, and Diamond Jay are featured on the album and perform as a live turntablist “band” on the revolutionary “A Turntable Xperience.” Roots member and beatbox legend Rahzel also makes an appearance for one of the most exciting performances on the album; a live beatbox vs. turntablism battle on “Rob Swift Versus Rahzel.”

Now after nearly 5 years of being out of print, hip-hop fans around the world have a second chance to pick a one of the world’s leading turntablists’ classic albums, Soulful Fruit on November 8th.
