We're releasing 20 hand-signed copies of The Next Chapter on vinyl to help raise funds for V Knuckles' recovery.

As some of you may know, Knuckles was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor while still healing from a serious car accident. He’s now undergoing treatment including radiation and chemo, while caring for his 3-year-old son and family. What was meant to be the next chapter in his life — filled with music, growth, and fatherhood — has suddenly become one of the most difficult he's ever faced.

All proceeds from these records will go directly to Knuckles and his family to help with medical costs and support during this time.

Each vinyl is signed by both Knuckles and Phoniks and comes with a digital download of the album.

Want to contribute more? There’s a “Pay What You Want” option at checkout. You can also donate directly through the GoFundMe: www.gofundme.com/f/support-for-rahim-knuckles-muhammad-and-his-family

Thank you for helping us show love and solidarity to our brother during these times.

Includes unlimited streaming of The Next Chapter via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Download available in 24-bit/44.1kHz.

Welcome to "The Next Chapter," the brand-new hip hop album by Boston's own V Knuckles and beatmaker Phoniks. With a remarkable presence in the underground hip-hop scenes of Boston and Cambridge for over two decades Knux has made his mark globally as part of the legendary group NBS (Natural Born Spitters), gracing stages on six continents.

The title, "The Next Chapter," signifies Knuckles' journey as he embraces a new life chapter, settling down with his fiancé and welcoming a baby boy into the world. This narrative unfolds through beats and rhymes, capturing his evolution and newfound inspiration.

Knuckles and Phoniks brought a team of underground legends with them on this project including the iconic Inspectah Deck (of Wu-Tang Clan), Fredro Starr (of Onyx), Termanology, Edo. G, Reks, Awon, Flash (of NBS), and more. Each artist adds a unique flavor, resulting in a dynamic and captivating album that not only pays homage to underground hip-hop's roots but also propels it into 'The Next Chapter.'
