Slum Village is one of the premiere acts from modern day Detroit and they continue the city's great musical legacy with their latest mixtape out now on Motor City's Barak Records . The hip-hop group has gone through personnel changes but they remain committed to creating soulful hip-hop sounds and are never lacking inspiration or special guest appearances by friends and former members like Jay Dee and Kanye West. Prequel to a Classic features some rare and unreleased joints and other surprises by a group whose sound is always morphing and getting hotter. Check out this record and get ready for The S and the V, Slum's next full length album scheduled for a fall release.
