A new record shop specialising in rap tapes opens doors.

Veteran rap journalist and Cocaine Blunts founder Andrew Nosnitsky has opened a record shop in Oakland, California. A joint venture with fellow rap fanatic 12ManRambo, Park Blvd Records & Tapes will stock a big selection of rap tapes, as well as vinyl and CDs. Judging by the Instagram photos below, it looks as if they already have a solid inventory:
