Yes

"This serves as a reminder of why hip-hop was created and the conditions that indirectly anchored the culture." - Vibe "Making this album, brought back memories from my past, with tracks and demos dating back to 1994-1995, some included in this album. These songs and demos, when discovered, were returned back to us by Mrs. Yancey, categorized and filed away, it blew my mind when I heard them, hearing Dilla and Baatin's voice I wondered how New Slum would sound with the Original Slum, and not lose the integrity of the group. I think that was achieved!" - T3 Yes, the highly anticipated album from Slum Village is ready to hit your ears. The new album features beats produced by Jay Dee aka J Dilla along with production from Young RJ who together produced one of Slum Village's finest moments ever in the form of Fantastic Vol. 2. Yes features performances by original Slum Village members T3 and Baatin in addition to the aforementioned J Dilla. There are also features from Bilal, Jon Connor, BJ The Chicago Kid, Phife Dawg, J Ivy, de la Soul and Illa J.
