Description

November 17th 2023, sees the first ever retail release of the infamous April 2013 leak of unfinished Jai Paul demos that took the world by storm, titled Leak 04-13 (Bait Ones). Coined one of the best albums of the 2010s (Pitchfork), Bait Ones boasts an impressive tracklist with songs that have been sampled by some of today s biggest artists such as Beyoncé and Drake. After years operating in near-anonymity, Jai Paul made his live debut at Coachella earlier this year, after which he has played a handful of sold out headline concerts. This retail release follows a limited run of 3000 LPs sold worldwide via Jai s webstore to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the leak, all of which sold out immediately. – XL Recordings
