The once great Slum Village return with The Dirty Slums mixtape, their first piece of original music since Village Manifesto in 2010. After losing the legendary Jay Dilla (aka Dilla, aka Jay Donuts, aka Jay Dee) to blood disease, and then later original member Baatin, the Detroit rap heroes return to the plate for another loaded swing at hip-hop legitimacy. Recorded in alliance with Mick Boogie, and with beats supplied by Young RJ, we’ll see if the project contains enough heat to thaw out Slum Village’s present frozen state. The mix also includes verses from Rapper Big Pooh, Skyzoo, Big Sean, Phife, Phonte, Focus and Joe Scudda. Download The Dirty Slums mixtape here for free.
