About this record
Rashad & Confidence’s The Element of Surprise returns in a newly remastered 2LP edition. Originally released in 2011, the album pairs Brooklyn MC Rashad’s detailed storytelling and agile flow with Boston producer Confidence’s warm, sample-heavy production, rooted in soul loops, classic breaks and a distinctly ’90s-inspired boom-bap aesthetic.
This 2026 reissue expands the original album with three additional tracks: the 2019 single “Desires” and two previously unreleased recordings from the original sessions, “Non Stop” and “Feel It.” The full album has been remastered for this edition, making it the most complete vinyl version of the project to date.

Seam splits on record jackets are a common occurrence with vinyl: we cannot issue refunds or replacements for seam splits. We use sturdy mailers and stiffeners to minimise risk but to 100% avoid seam splits, we have added a notes section at checkout where you can request jacket-less shipping, or you can email us after placing your order — we’ll gladly accommodate this free of charge.
