We got a taste of J Dilla's latest posthumous release The Rebirth of Detroit last weekend via a stream of the soulful, Chuck Inglish- and Boldy Hames-assisted "Detroit Game." In case you didn't cop the album when it dropped yesterday (June 12), you can now preview the whole thing online.
Ruff Draft Records' Jonathon Taylor previously said of the collection, "I named this project The Rebirth of Detroit because there will be no more outsourcing of Detroit soul and culture as in the recent past," and the list of collaborators proves this is a locals-only affair.
While you're shuffling through the stream, might we suggest the sci-fi synth-and-clap of "Ride With It," featuring Tha Almighty Dreadnaughtz, or the heavenly 8-bit harp tones and heavy boom bap of "Jay Dee's Revenge," featuring rapper du jour Danny Brown and DJ Dez?
