{"product_id":"mike-d-thank-you-clear","title":"Mike D - Thank You [Clear]","description":"\u003cp\u003eFour decades after helping build the Beastie Boys' cut-and-paste swagger, Mike D finally steps out alone on Thank You, his debut solo album, pressed here on clear vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2026 on Capitol, the label behind Paul's Boutique, the album grew out of home-studio sessions with his sons Skyler and Davis Diamond, whose band Sons Very Nice Person produced it alongside Carter Lang. That family setup gives the record a looseness you can hear, the sound of people playing with gear until something sparks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than chasing the old Beasties formula, Thank You leans into glitchy electronic grooves, warped hooks and a punky, restless energy. \"Switch Up\" was the first taste, and \"True Colors\", \"What We Got\" and the closing title track show the range, from stuttering beats to warm, openhearted choruses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow performing as Mike D 5D with a new live band, he sounds genuinely curious about where music can go next, and that sense of play is infectious from the first track to the last, a rare thing on a debut arriving this late in a career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who grew up on the Beastie Boys, it is a fascinating new chapter from one of hip-hop's great innovators, and the clear pressing makes for a sharp addition to the shelf beside the classics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67758050115874,"sku":"600574179128","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Mike_D-Thank_You_Clear.jpg?v=1794296085","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/mike-d-thank-you-clear","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
