Baatin - Helleven (Prod. Waajeed) [Stream]

" Baatin was the eldest of my friends. Born Titus Prentice Glover, we met in the 3rd grade at Courville elementary. I knew then he was a different type of dude.
There was a wedding I went to with my family – needless to say the the star of the show was little Titus. Swagged out in an all white suit, dancing and entertaining the crowd. A true showman since a young buck.

Slum Village - Tell Me (Prod. J Dilla) (Unreleased) [Stream]

NEW SLUM VILLAGE!!! This is one of the first tracks the legendary crew ever recored together and the beat was made before Jay Dee even had a drum machine! Just....wow. Listen and read the full story behind the record as told by Bling 47's Waajeed below.

" While some consider Dilla’s strong suit to be production, others look to his rhyming for inspiration. This early Slum Village track, “Tell Me What You Want” is a fine example of his ill penmanship. It was one of the first efforts as Baatin, T3 and Dilla came out of the Senepod crew name and became Slum Village. At the time Dilla didn’t even have a drum machine, so this beat was actually made using the “pause and record” tape method. It was never released. Enjoy " - Waajeed (Jeedo)

This video/album, to me, is a very sad tribute and farewell to one of the greatest hip-hop trios ever as this will be the last SV album ever. RIP J Dilla, RIP Baatin....RIP Slum Village.
