Revorg Records return with a no-frills, heavy-hitting release from Sam Krats — an ambitious 22-track double album titled Culture. The project follows the critically acclaimed Culture single released in 2021, continuing Krats’ run of boom bap production paired with uncompromising lyricism. The Bristol-based producer has built a reputation for consistent, high-level collaborations and builds on this with his first LP.
Built over 12 years with no rush and no compromise, Culture is rooted in the core elements of hip-hop — beats, rhymes, cuts, and respect for the craft. This isn’t a throwback record; it’s a continuation — linking eras, scenes, and artists who’ve stayed true to the culture. Krats’ sample-based production draws from a deep respect for the 90s era boom bap culture championed by pioneers of the art form such as Lord Finesse, Diamond D, Marley Marl and DJ Premier, but without relying on it, the album builds forward — connecting the UK and the US through a shared language of hip-hop.
Krats brings together a heavyweight line-up from across the Atlantic. US collaborators include Artifacts (featuring the late Tame One), Craig G of the legendary Juice Crew, Andre the Giant of Showbiz and AG, Ruste Juxx, Guilty Simpson, Jeru the Damaja, ED O.G. and Neek the Exotic of Main Source — a roster that speaks to the foundations of the genre. On the UK side, the album stays firmly grounded. Featuring Oliver Sudden, Big Toast, Ramson Badbonez and Gee Bag from the Revorg Records camp, alongside King Kashmere, Mysdiggi, Junior Disprol, Bubba Louis of Aspects and Retna, Culture represents the strength and depth of this mutual appreciation.
