On August 25th Delicious Vinyl will release the debut single by Illa J: "We Here" b/w "R U Listenin". Both tracks are produced by the legendary late producer Jay Dee (aka J Dilla), Illa J's older brother.
"We Here" is all sizzle and gleam as Illa J ad-libs his mission statement: "Yancey Boys from Detroit, Michigan...comin' for that number one spot...'bout to rock the world!" Over the previously unheard Dilla track (from a cache of Jay Dee beats held in safety for a decade by Delicious Vinyl founder Michael Ross) Illa J's soulful tenor delivers the hook: "We poppin' bottles like it's first day of the year." Illa J confirms the feeling: "Somebody could be in a hoopty but the Jay Dee beat sound so good it make them feel like they riding in a Phantom."
^ hmm, sounds good; looks like Micheal Ross must have the rights to these Dilla blaps that we're held back, a decade old would make them 98 / 99, circa another batch so we're in for a treat...im glad despite his So called "Management's Stance"; Dilla's real folks can put out his beats and work on new projects.
Download the track "We Here" (mp3).
