I've been struggling to find anything positive to say about hip hop that's been released over the last few weeks. But just as the weekend rides in to save most of us from the Monday to Friday grind, Detroit production whizz Black Milk drops in to rescue me from my hip hop musical malaise. Black's impending LP, the humbly-titled Album Of The Year , is shaping up as a promising listen based on a few snippets I've heard. The album's first single, 'Deadly Medley' is a good example of what to expect, with [...]

Douglas Martin is the Tacoma Carl Craig. You can't speak about the once-mighty S.V. without referencing the tragedies. The rampant bootlegging, two dead members, and one ridiculously unnecessary Twitter beef, that's helped spoil the victory lap one of the olderground's greatest rap groups. But before T3 and Elzhi were attempted to be brought into the principal's office to settle things, they released the pretty solid Villa Manifesto LP, what might well be the group's swan song. "Bare Witness", the triumphant album opener, ought to have indie-rap fans [...]

Slum Village's "Villa Manifesto" is in stores now so I caught up with T-3 and Young RJ to ask them about some of those beats from the webisodes that didn't make the album, the future of BR Gunna and to shed light on that secret J-Dilla beat-making formula that Ma Dukes told me about years ago.
Bands, especially good ones, have this tendency to release new music. Fans of these bands then go crazy about it, and everyone talks about this great new music for awhile. You know what gets a bad rap in all this? Old music. Old music can be awesome. Sometimes, buzz or no buzz, a band made better [Read Full Post...]

A smooth track right here from Slum Village and the Canadian Colin Munroe. After the fact,I don't know why I felt it was noteworthy to tell you that he's Canadian. Regardless, he's consistently delivering catchy hooks, and "Faster" just adds to his credibility. I feel like Slum Village has been around forever, and they're releasing another album titled Villa Manifesto , due out later in 2010. Thank you to Baltimore/George Hogan for the knowledge.

Hearing "Faster" is bittersweet. The song is the first single from the upcoming album, Villa Manifesto, which I can't wait to hear, but Slum Village has also announced it will be their last.

The official music video for "Faster" by Slum Village featuring Colin Munroe off of thier new album, Villa Manifesto, in stores and online on July 27th.
July 27th is the release date of Villa Manifesto - amid all the chaos, supposed breakups and what not, I expect this album to be a banger like the rest from Slum Village .

Hip-Hop all stars Slum Village are getting ready to release their newest studio album Villa Manifesto on July 27th. Although the group has included a revolving cast of members in the past five years, confirmed to be working on this project are Elzhi and T3 along with the late Baatin and J Dilla. There are plenty of collaborative appearances on the album, detailed by the tracklist below, but for a Slum Village album Villa Manifesto appears to be pretty bare boned. One track from the album has leaked; "Lock it Down" is [...]

Slum Village's Villa Manifesto is one of my most anticipated hip hop records. Detroit is hitting the streets heavy in 2010 and if the rumors are true that Villa Manifesto will be SV's curtain call, then they are going out the same door they came in. When I first read the track listing and production credits for Villa Manifesto, I groaned at the presence of Dilla beats, but it's become a gut reaction. It's time we look forward and be thankful for what we have (like Black Milk and Madlib), i...
