Trunk Music Tapes
This site exists to preserve, restore, and document the history of Memphis rap’s underground cassette era. Through careful audio remastering and digital archiving. My mission is to ensure that rare recordings from the 1980s and 1990s are not lost to time. Trunk Music Tapes serves as an archive dedicated to sharing rare Memphis rap with the world. My goal is to keep the music accessible while preserving the legacy of the artists, producers, and communities that created it.
