While so many hip hop artists sample the recorded works of jazz and R&B artists, never has a project turned the practice on it’s ear and borrowed from the music Hip Hop. Enter Unwrapped, a collection of instrumental takes on some of the biggest hits in Hip Hop. Jazzy covers of favorites smoothed out for a sophisticated take on the urban lifestyle.

Some of the best session players and Contemporary Jazz artists take star turns over these familiar beats, with stimulating results. Patrice Rushen, Paul Jackson, Jr., Everette Harp, as well as Hidden Beach saxman, Mike Phillips appear.

Unwrapped was initially conceived as a project "For DJs Only" – the street reaction was so strong – Hidden Beach decided to release a CD for consumer consumption. So in addition to a double vinyl LP, a "mixed" version of the CD will be available. Perfect for seamless, uninterrupted play at parties and atmosphere in public spaces – Unwrapped is the perfect lifestyle project. Immediately recognizable – yet challenging in it’s own right.
