COOKIES & CREAM 5

Fifth volume of the Cookies & Cream Instrumental Hip-Hop series that started on Jakarta Records and now finds it's grand finale on Shuko's own For The Love Of it label. Shuko is a veteran beatmaker who worked with national and international greats like Anderson Paak, B-Real (Cypress Hill), Talib Kweli and many more, and partners up with his longtime friends and partner in crime F. Of Audiotreats once again. Started a decade ago in 2011 with the first volume on Jakarta, Shuko and F. Of Audiotreats are now back with their final instrumental album Cookies & Cream vol.5 on Shuko's For The Love Of It label. Both producers teamed up again to bring nothing else than smooth jazzy hip hop jams with some little bouncy touches here and there. A long journey comes to an end with a decade creating beats, writing songs and working with artists as diverse as Anderson Paak (Jewelz), B-Real, Talib Kweli, Nipsey Hussle, Ludacris or Chance The Rapper. Cookies and Cream Vol. 5 is an album inspired by the grandmasters of beatmaking like Pete Rock, J. Dilla, Q-Tip or Hi-Tek. The limited vinyl is a special edition in gatefold sleeve with liner notes and some tracks that are not even available on streaming platforms.
