Comments (0) Best CD Store - 2005
Music Depot
At first glance, this midsize shop looks like any other mall CD store. The racks are arranged so that the person behind the counter can see all of the activities throughout the store, giving would-be shoplifters a hard time. But it's what's on these racks that sets this place apart. Most mall stores focus on Top 40 hits, and for the most part they sell more trinkets and memorabilia than music. Not so at Music Depot, where you can find the deepest collection of homegrown rap music available in the city. Pretty much every mixtape and local and national release is available here at any given time, from Slim Thug's Already Platinum to Willo tha Wiz's My Music Is My Life. Music Depot supports our local artists like no other, giving them the opportunity for in-store appearances even when they're just releasing a mixtape. Mike Jones filmed his "Back Then" video here, and there's a good chance you'll see your favorite artist dropping off his or her wares just about anytime you visit.
