nope. jay dee is from slum village, part of a production group called the Ummah which was behind some of the beats for Tribe Called Quest, PhatKat and a few other artists. he's done a hella lot of work in the past two years aside from Slum Village, and most everything is beautfiul, sparse hip hop.
on the new hip hop soul tip, i can not BELIEVE no one mentioned ROOTS MANUVA. do not walk...run to your nearest shop and pick up his new LP, "run come save me" on big dada/ninja tune. simply amazing hip hop. also, check his first album "Brand New Second Hand" which had tracks produced by West London beat guru IG Culture. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
