Hands folded across the chest. Relaxed but ready for action. Fantastic Volume 2 captures Slum Village's swellegant b-boy stance on record. The Detroit crew's long-awaited debut is loaded with muscular, simmering beats. By turns relaxing and stimulating, it further establishes producer Jay Dee (known for his board work for De La Soul, Q-Tip, Common, and more) as a production force. His thick, red-blooded rhythms range from the crunchy, organic drums on I Don't Know, punctuated with sly James Brown vocal samples, to the percolating, bass-laced Get Dis Money. Though they're drowning in underground accolades, Slum Village aren't intellectual navel-gazers or lyrical geniuses. Rappers Baatin, T3, and Jay Dee use their quirky vocal chemistry to illuminate the lush rhythms. They want you to shake your ass to their music-they even provide instructions. -Lizz Mendez Berry Intro, Conant Gardens, I Don't Know (Feat. Jazzy Jeff), Jealousy, Climax (Girl Shit), Hold Tight (Feat. Q-Tip), Tell Me (Feat. D'angelo), What It's All About, Fourth and Back (Feat. Kurupt), Untitled - Fantastic, Fall in Love, Get Dis Money, Raise It Up, Once Upon a Time (Feat. Pete Rock), Players, Eyes Up, 2U4U, CB4, Go Ladies, Thelonius, Fall-N-Love Remix
