Limited to 100 copies worldwide

Collector’s edition pressed on clear cassette shells, and equipped with a full color J-Card printed on both sides with clear Norelco cases.

Hip-hop has long had an obsession with the debut album as it marks an artist’s introduction to the world and often lives on as their definitive piece of work. Nas had Illmatic. Jay had Reasonable Doubt. Snoop had Doggystyle. Biggie had Ready to Die. On October 20th, 2009, the day came for Fashawn to make his own mark with, Boy Meets World. The result was an honest, heartfelt and witty album, the likes of which had seldom been heard from someone his age. Abound with captivating storytelling and magnificent production, the album would quickly receive critical praise. XXL gave it an ‘XL’ rating and called it an album that “resonates a lot more than the work of some rappers decades his senior.” HipHopDX called it “perhaps the most heir apparent to Nas’ ’94 classic.”

Meshing beautifully and exclusively over the soulful loops of producer Exile — who wowed listeners and critics with Below The Heavens, his 2007 collaboration with Blu — Fashawn's audio biography touches on his series of stepfathers ("I called them all daddy/even though they didn't have me") and even a friend's suicide. Yet he still finds time to play, swapping boasts with his producer on "Bo Jackson" and plotting his way out of the friend zone with "Lupita." On “The Ecology,” Fashawn articulates the inner struggles of a good kid from a bad place, over Exile’s dramatic string sample.

Fashawn may only have been 20 years old at the time of the album’s release, but he’s possessed the wisdom of a man well beyond his years. Abound with a nostalgic potency that makes the record just as relatable and fresh today as it was when it was first released, Dirty Science Records in partnership with Coalmine Reissues are honored to release this special edition reissue of this classic LP, just in time for the album’s 15th anniversary!

Soothing sun protection
Size: 3-Pack (0.15 Ounce each)
Very soothing, great protection for your lips. It seems to stay put too, although I’ll reapply a few times during whatever activity I’m doing

Smooth with light white cast but not very strong SPF
Size: 2-Pack (0.15 Ounce each)
Works well, goes on smooth, not too much of a white cast. If you're sensitive to the sun, you may need a stronger mineral SPF that could result in a very white cast.

Good for sensitive skin

A little waxy and wears off quickly, but it helped my dry lips this winter.

Smooth and lasts long.

The best lip sunscreen I've tried by FAR
Size: 2-Pack (0.15 Ounce each), Size: 2-Pack (0.15 Ounce each)
Background: I have VERY dry lips that sunburn, desiccate, and wrinkle easily (see before pic). I use prescription tretinoin so I'm skin sensitized and hyper conscious of sun exposure. I've tried lip sunscreens from what feels like every single brand, including EltaMD (3/5, looks ok, not moisturizing enough), Sun Bum (1/5, super drying, gross flavor, oily) Aquaphor (4/5, looks good, pretty moisturizing, my #2), Blistex (2/5, waxy, drying), and a million other random Amazon and gas station brands. First impression: I actually didn't read the ingredients list before purchasing since I was buying a bunch of new brands to try. But as soon as I put it on I was blown away at how immediately SOFT, hydrated, plumped, and moisturized my lips felt...and that is not something I ever say about my lips. Then I checked out the ingredients and it made sense. The top ingredient in the base is argan oil which is very emollient and moisturizing, then bisabolol which is a very soothing natural extract from chamomile, and this also has beeswax, sweet almond oil, shea butter and vitamin e for more moisture and antioxidant benefits. This is a really impressive formula from a $3 tube of sunscreen, let alone the fact it has SPF 30. There's a tiny amount of white cast if I look closely (from the zinc, see after pic) but it's not really noticeable and overall it looks really flattering on my lips (Fitzpatrick III, light-medium skin and medium pigmented lips). The alternative is a balm with chemical filters which (in my experience) all taste disgusting. If you have dark skin or very pigmented lips I would still give it a shot since it's pretty affordable and quite sheer, but you might prefer it over a lip stain. This has zero flavor or scent when I eat or lick my lips. Sun protection test: I have worn this outside while gardening in October/early November and haven't experienced any burning or sun sensitization on my lips. I haven't worn it during summer months when the sun is most intense, but the fact that the formula is flavorless and super moisturizing really incentivizes me to reapply often which is the most important factor when it comes to sunscreen (especially lip sunscreen which moves around more!), so I don't anticipate having issues with maintaining solar protection. 5/5 great product!
