Slum village can i be me

Those that woo women, those that tell you that Slum Village will prevail, and those that lament the strife of ghetto life. Formulas exert a strong influence over Slum Village, and forgetting them for a minute would do the present duo no harm.

From T3, Baatin and J. Still, this critic can detect redeeming qualities in a group he thinks has yet to justify the accolades it has garnered over the years from devoted fans and otherwise reasonable experts. Due to their lack of mainstream success, Slum Village have retained a non-conformist attitude that cannot be taken for granted these days.

I hesitate to rate such uncategorizable releases in detail. Remember Me. Lost your password? Reviews See all. Dilla would do the impossible differently. Baatin was real earthy, Dilla was real street, and I was the glue trying to bring both these two guys together.

Yes, I like the titty bar; yes, I do want to be vegan. Then we all from the hood, which is ridiculous altogether when you think about. Do you have any stories to share J? RJ: Nah, not like that. The time we spent, we all enjoyed it. T3: It was a lot of shit with that album. The fact that Vol. They loved us based off our history. Nobody gets that. This was before favors were handed out. Those were all favors. Even though we had Busta [Rhymes], everybody from New York on there. What the fuck we gotta do?

Then they went back and retracted it. T3: Not to get too deep about it, but we were a part of the album. It was me, Baatin, Dilla, and a few other dudes there as well.

Now Dilla gotta still make the beats, but I gotta come up with part of the hooks. Dilla came with part of the hooks, Baatin still coming with the verse. You sit there as long as you need to to get that feel right.

Sometimes you have to take stuff away to make it fit for the artist. Sometimes, simpler is better. You can add a million things making a beat, but you might have to scale it all back to make it glue together. And having fun in the studio. He shows versatility doing that in beat tapes, from trap to super soulful to club music. He gave you all spectrums. Go head, rap on that shit. Lemme see what you do with it. We had to go back too. It was just us with rock records, soul records, etc.

You gotta go back. T3 : Progression in music is always a plus for me. T3: He was one star of Slum Village. The reason why me and T can actually be together for over nine years. You gotta go back to the drawing board. T3: I got a lot of dope samples. We got new music coming next year, some soul stuff. But we definitely focused on this new Slum in Me and J will probably drop some loose records here and there.

Right now, we just tryna keep the legacy going. I got an EP, album, beat tape, drum kit stuff. We going to switch it up a little on this new album. You might make the money or you might not, but if you have a miserable time doing it, then what the fuck are you doing it for? T3: Yes! We put some tracks on there we were supposed to use way back in the day, and brought it to new school. We really had fun with that record. Dope, the vibe. Even me writing the rhymes, it was easy to write to.

Then Yes! Songs I wish came out that never came out. Since we talking to Okayplayer, the Roots song with Slum Village that never came out. Shout out to that, throw that in there. We had a song with Mos Def back in the day that never came out. I got so many great songs just in the vault.
