y'all might know that early this year the remaining members of Slum Village (including Baatin who was still alive) made a deal to release a deluxe edition of their, by many considered (incl. me), classic real debut "Fantastic Volume II". thing was this wasn't just the exact same album with a few unreleased songs tacked on at the end. according to T3 this was the original version of the album that Jay Dee, T3 and Baatin really wanted it to sound like for it's '98 release (the album didn't get an official release until two years later tho).
i've had "Fantastic Vol. 2" for a good while but since this version leaked i've been banging this alot more in my iPod (alot of y'all know i'm crazy about original albums and how the artists intended them rather than a label lol). if you're familiar with both albums it would be interesting to hear you're opinions on this! peace - Rest in power DILLA and BAATINJay Dee a.k.a, J. Dilla's original production! The way he wanted it: uncensored & unedited. Contains original mixes and skits not contained on the original Vol. 2. Includes instrumentals. 10th anniversary limited edition!
