The Roots – How I Got Over

Late pass on the video. I’ve been too involved with the entire record itself. Possibly the greatest album out this year (so far).

This sounds real nice! Talib and Mos were performing in between commercials as well. Roots made the beat sound ill!

Statik Selektah x Q-Tip: The Look of Love [Dilla Tribute]

statik-slektah-dilla-dedication.jpg

I was going through my externals and came across a bunch of old Dilla tribute mixes and beat tapes. I’ll be posting ‘em through out the day, but I’ll leave out the beat tapes. I’ll letcha’ have the fun of scavenging around for all 3 of ‘em. There’s a couple more, but most of them have repeats.

The here’s a fine collection of Dilla’s work, accompanied by his close friends x fans. Static Slektah and Q-Tip pulled together joints from Common, De La Soul, Termanology, Erykah Badu, Hi-Tek and many more. Peep the tracklist and download link after the jump.
