LATEST ALBUM RELEASE “F.U.N.” (2024)
Reigning as the kings of global hip-hop, Slum Village need little introduction…
Formed in 1996, the rap collective has since gone to take the world by storm with their slick beats and incredible wordplay.
Anthems such as Fall In Love, Selfish and Get Dis Money are widely regarded as some of the best productions to emerge from the genre.
Their early recordings, crafted in the intimacy of Dilla’s basement, pulsated with the raw energy of the Detroit underground. By 1998, their talent landed them a record deal, launching them onto a path of critical acclaim and commercial success. Though J Dilla embarked on a solo journey in 2000, his influence remained deeply ingrained in the group’s DNA.
T3 and Baatin continued to push boundaries, dropping classic albums like “Trinity” (featuring the hit “Tainted”) and “Detroit Deli” (boasting the Kanye West-produced “Selfish”). Joined by Grammy-nominated producer Young RJ in 2009, T3 has ensured the group’s legacy continues to evolve. Together, they’ve released albums like “Villa Manifesto” and “YES,” the latter featuring Dilla’s posthumous production.
Today, Slum Village remains a revered name in Detroit hip-hop. With over 12 years together, T3 and Young RJ honor the group’s original vision while infusing it with fresh energy and infectious enthusiasm. Their latest single, “Request,” proves they’re still pushing boundaries and captivating audiences worldwide.
