Shop With Us

Your Local Record Shop

Dictator Records Shop is an independent record store located at 1008 Westside Drive in Greensboro, North Carolina. We carry vinyl records, CDs, turntables, vinyl accessories, books, audiobooks, apparel, and more — everything a music lover needs under one roof.

We're proud to be a crucial part of hip-hop history, known for aiding the careers of artists like Lil Jon & The Eastside Boyz, Pastor Troy, Khia, Lil Scrappy, and several others. That legacy drives everything we do today.

Whether you're hunting for new arrivals, pre-orders, Record Store Day titles, pre-owned inventory, or collectibles, we've got something for you. Stop by Monday through Saturday, noon to 6 PM, and dig through the crates.
