Edition #14

Robert Glasper x Jeff Staple

12on12 presents “Been There Done That”, a limited edition vinyl and capsule collection born from the collaboration between Grammy-winning artist Robert Glasper and streetwear pioneer Jeff Staple. More than a vinyl drop, it’s a cultural exchange.

The project unites two New York visionaries: Glasper, whose genre-blending sound shaped a generation, and Staple, whose LES-born brand became a global streetwear institution.

Rooted in authenticity, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to craft, the collaboration reflects their parallel paths as independent voices who’ve stayed true to their aesthetics and communities in industries that often reward conformity. “Been There Done That” doesn’t chase hype - it creates it.

Behind the Creation of 'Been There Done That'

This behind-the-scenes film captures the energy, humour and vision that fuel 'Been There Done That', the 12on12 collaboration between Robert Glasper and Jeff Staple. It’s not just about making a record, it’s about watching two creative worlds collide in real time. The BTS takes you into the room, where Glasper recalls his first memories of vinyl, the smell of the wax, the crackle of the needle, the magic of unfolding Off the Wall, while Staple reflects on vinyl as a timeless cultural artefact.
