SNAKES & LADDERS 🐍🪜 DELUXE BOARD GAME EDITION⁠: The album, turned into a game you can actually play.⁠ LIMITED TO 800 UNITS⁠!

We don’t always have deluxe versions of our records- and in fact, this is the first one we have ever had for an Armand Hammer first edition. When we do have them, we really try to go above and beyond, and this has to be one of our most ambitious undertakings. Album art and the box set was created by Shane Ingersoll, with contributions from Ashes57, Phantom Power & billy woods, and once they are gone, we will not be printing any more. ⁠
⁠
Head to https://t.co/gX5OA6HDQF for all the details and to get yours!⁠
⁠
📝: Because this is a surprise drop, the album will not be available via distro until January 15th. Until then, you can only purchase Snakes & Ladders directly from Backwoodz or @rhymesayers. (Deluxe Game Box & Shirts are exclusively available from Backwoodz)

@ArmandHammerNYC Snakes & Ladders out now on @BackwoodzHipHop Assembly lines is the collaboration.

[PremRock @PlanetPremRock]

Armand Hammer really doin it man. Kids knowing all the words, mad dashes to the merch table, selling these shows out and the live set is a well-oiled, dynamic experience. Seeing this all up close is something. Salute to the best rap duo out

NEW ARMAND HAMMER LP 🐍🪜 SNAKES & LADDERS OUT NOW!
Surprise drop. Plus the album as a playable board game — only 800 made.

Snakes & Ladders is the eighth studio album from ELUCID and billy woods, collectively known as @ArmandHammerNYC. If there was ever a sense that these two might rest on their laurels, every moment of Snakes & Ladders is a repudiation of that notion. As always with these guys, the new work is sonically, lyrically, aesthetically, and emotionally different from what came before it. Here the heady, contemplative Mercy gives way to vibrance and violence. This is an album of the now, in all the senses of the word. Production-wise, woods and @cobratoof are joined by names familiar and new. But with the help of @WillieGreen1, the album’s sound is so seamless you would be excused for thinking there was a single hand behind it all.⁠

Production credits go to @mondieumusic, @clppng, @ANIMOSS_, @KennySegal, @sebbmode, Mekala Session, @chldactr, Saint Abdullah & Eomac, @THERAVADA, @jeff_markey , @MessiahMusik and @steeltippeddove.⁠

Very inspiring. Highly recommend. The album is great. Movie makes it even greater, which is not always the case. it anchors the conversations with his mom in an effective way. This whole project is a big artistic statement.

[Backwoodz Studioz @BackwoodzHipHop]

We gonna get to that other thing soon enough but in case anyone didn't see Nonechosen film, you need to. It's a serious achievement, and an incredible addition to a genre I wish we had more of.

🎵 Mike Ladd's NONECHOSEN Album & 🎥 Movie OUT NOW!

Happy Friday, friends; we are here to put an exclamation point on what has been quite a week. If you are on this mailing list, you already know about Nonechosen, the exhilarating new project from Mike Ladd, and exactly why his return to the scene is such a big deal to us.

What you may not know is that this is not just an album; it's an entire audiovisual experience! It's incredible, so we hope you check it out, and if you purchase the album, you will also be able to access the movie On-Demand. Mike really went above and beyond with this release; the visuals really just add to what is already an incredibly powerful artistic statement.

@qnorapname_ I’ve independently pressed instrumental versions of the last 3 rap albums I produced. I moved away from the full instrumental albums because I was enjoying collaborations more, but I might get back to it soon. People pay attention to instro stuff drastically less than vocals tho.

[Controller 7 @controllerseven]

@robotson Thank you!

[Backwoodz Studioz @BackwoodzHipHop]

DJ Preservation @mondieumusic and Gabe Nandez’ @GabeNandez collaborative LP Sortilège was the dark horse 2025 AOTY, and an instant hit with the Backwoodz faithful. Now we have a limited-edition pressing of the instrumentals, available only through Backwoodz and a few hand-picked affiliates. To commemorate this occasion, we also have a brand-new single and video from Preservation and Gabe; titled “Galleon”, that is only available digitally. Grab a copy now, because we don’t expect this instrumental project to be repressed.⁠

@EdGreen2 @BackwoodzHipHop Might we entertain “two oboes, one Claire Annette”? Could be a reference to some white girl that is a big Rahsaan Roland Kirk fan. I guess we will never know.
