Dear Dilla, you shaped my perception for music in ways I can't describe in words. Music has always touched my heart, but your music moved my soul. You had a gift of making the most creative music using samples from the most unlikely sources. I'll never understand why someone like you, who could have given the world so much more, would be taken way so soon. Dilla, you "literally" changed lives and you probably saved lives too, because when you make music "straight from the heart," it's not just music anymore.

You will always be my favorite musician of all time....

Thank You Dilla, Rest In Peace

Pre-Order "Carte Blanche": http://smarturl.it/CarteBlancheDE

Detroit MC Phat Kat drops an unreleased track produced by J Dilla and featuring La Peace, to announce the reissue of his 2007 "Carte Blanche" album.

Phat Kat says: "We decided to re-release the "Carte Blanche" album because it was put out right before the internet blew up, so it never really got to a lot of listeners. And it was a really good project that slipped through the cracks. It came together during the time me and Dilla were signed to Payday Records, but when the label folded we never got a chance to record a full album. We recorded "It Don’t Get No Liver Than This" for the 1st Down album but the label folded and it didn’t come out."

Originally released in 2007, Phat Kat’s 2nd studio album “Carte Blanche” is getting a re-release on July 27th via Below System Records. The deluxe edition will includes 2 new bonus tracks both produced by J Dilla.

“Carte Blanche” includes production by J Dilla, Black Milk, Young RJ, Nick Speed and features by Elzhi, Black Milk, Guilty Simpson, T3 and more. The 2 Dilla produced bonus tracks “World Premier” and “It Don’t Get No Liver Than This” with a featuring by La Peace, were recorded in 1996 and 1997.

Phat Kat - It Don't Get No Liver Than This (feat. La Peace) [prod. by J Dilla]

https://T3.lnk.to/MrFantastic
Legendary Detroit emcee T3 is releasing his long-awaited album, Mr. Fantastic -- produced entirely by Teeko and Ruckazoid, on January 23rd 2020, via Delicious Vinyl. 

The Slum Village frontman, known as the gel of the group, and celebrated for his witty flow and cadence, as well as his "stutter step" hooks, is now ready to drop his solo project. Even though fellow founding members J Dilla and Baatin passed in 2006 and 2009, they heavily influenced him to make his own path. "I had a premonition Baatin and J Dilla were speaking to me, outside of the conversations we had, before they both passed," explains T3. "In a nutshell they were like, 'Keep going.'" 

Baatin is featured on the title cut, which is among T3's favorite tracks on the album. "The song that means the most to me would probably be the first single, which is 'Mr. Fantastic'," reveals T3. "Baatin's vocals on this joint are bone-chilling. It was like he was in the studio with me." 

And naturally there was no shortage of confidence in him from Dilla. Nearly 20 years ago, he knew T3 was up to the task. A line from an important talk they had resonates with him to this day. "Flashing back to the conversation I had with Dilla the day he left the group," he mentions, "Simply put, he said, 'You got it 3.'“ 

Now he's showing and proving, with his first LP through Delicious Vinyl, a label Dilla produced numerous hits for in the late 1990s. He believes the partnership has a glove-like fit. "I feel like Delicious Vinyl is a classic label," says T3. They put out joints that stand the test of time, and aligning myself with them is a great way to reintroduce myself." 

Sonically "Mr Fantastic" has a very connected and continuous vibe and that's by design. 
"I come from that era where songs flowed, from one to the next," he says. "You could just press play on an album and let it rock. I wanted to give my project that feel." 

T3 met producers Teeko and Ruckazoid digitally and learned later on that they shared a connection. "At the time I decided to do solo work I was just searching on the net, mainly Instagram, for new producers and I came across Teeko on a DJ Jazzy Jeff playlist," says T3. 

"I reached out to him via direct message, and he sent a batch of beats he and Ruckazoid produced. Then we started to build a friendship. The dope thing I didn’t know was that Ruck had previously worked on material with Baatin years ago. Somehow I spotted the vibe and it just clicked." 

The result is a traditional Hip Hop album with a modern sound that is easy to enjoy. With features from rappers Frank Nitt and Illa J, Mr. Fantastic has a cohesiveness that shines through from start to finish. "Creatively on this album I was trying to bring back the 'fun' in music," T3 says. "That's what keeps it exciting for me to do. I hope listeners sit back and enjoy the ride. There's more to come."
