NO KNOWS DOPE | OUTKAST | SLUM VILLAGE

I know… I know… I know. It’s about damn time. & you’re right. It is. My bad for the delay. No excuses (even tho I got em). Last time I’ll be late for the rest of the year (only 1 month left jackass… not that difficult). Anyways the long awaited No Knows Outkast that was supposed to drop on the 15th of last month is finally here. It’s filled with all my faves & was a batch & a half to put together. As for this month I felt taking it to the slums, thus, No Knows Slum Village, same formula as Kast, same difficult task, all executed for the love of your support & your need for dopenaassss. TL’s & DL’s you know where…eNjOy!

VIDEO: SLUM VILLAGE – ACTIN NORMAL

This shit makes me sad. This seems to be the last video that SV shot before Baatin’s passing. It’s directed by Dwele and the song is produced by Karriem Riggins. Shouts to Scrapdirty for the link up. Rise In Power Baatin and tell Dilla Blind I says what up!

R.I.P. BAATIN

Just as we started to get excited about the upcoming  SlumVillage release, another Detroit talent leaves the world too soon.  Baatin was reportedly excited about being involved in the project and SV  just wrapped  the video for the single “Cloud Nine.” It’s sad that he won’t be here to celebrate but I’m sure he and Dilla will be smiling in Heaven.

Here is a  recent clip of the group performing at Rock The Bells in Chicago.

Rest in Peace Titus (Baatin) Glover.
