In my book, Slum Village is a few steps up from the ultra jazzy Tribe Called Quest and a leap above the master of cool Mos Def and a world above the political angst and fist to your face beats of Public Enemy. They're all masters of the genre, but Slum Village has that vibe, you know what I'm saying? That late night smoothness. And not to mention J Dilla. How can you not love the unique sleek production worlds greatest beatsmith? Fantastic Vol. 2 stacks up right next to Tribes genre bender Low End Theory.
If you're in it for the beats, I would point you towards the timeless Fall In Love. Its a masterpiece.
