Presales up for limited-edition Ghostface Killah 12 Reasons to Die packages from Get on Down!


It’s true, you can download 12 Reasons To Die when it hits iTunes and listen to it while looking at the song titles on a screen… but how exciting is that?

The answer: it’s not exciting at all. And so, to combat lame music listening, we offer you The Get On Down Way to experience Ghostface’s amazing new album.

In collaboration with RZA’s Soul Temple Music, we are proud to announce presales for two exclusive packages – the “12 Delucas Private Press Version” and the “12 Delucas Version” – both which offer unique and immersive Ghostface Killah 12 Reasons To Die experiences

12 Delucas Version

12 Delucas Private Press Version

Get On Down’s packaging is inspired by and was developed alongside the 12 Reasons To Die album and comic book (written by Matthew Rosenberg and Patrick Kindlon and illustrated by Ronald Wimberly).





Representing the at-times bloody story of Tony Starks (a soldier for the 12 Delucas crime family), the vinyl in these exclusive sets is appropriately gory – on blood red & clear mixed vinyl – bringing the theme to life vividly, while spinning at 33 1/3.



The comic book graphics and album artwork come to life in various ways throughout the “12 Delucas Version” packages: the vivid artwork on both LP jackets; the unique visuals adorning the box which holds all package elements, as well as the truly unique “Private Press” wood-block print; and through the images used on the exclusive two-sided poster.


Outer Box (Front & Back)

Birch Wood-panel print with unique 12 Reasons graphic (Private Press Version only) Available only on GetonDown.com.



Both “12 Delucas Version” sets give listeners a true “360” album experience, combining the physical / visual and aural – something which Get On Down proudly strands behind. To prove it (as if you needed further proof), Ghostface’s new opus is presented in three different audio formats – LP, CD and cassette. How can you get more complete than that?
