Ne’Astra Music is proud to announce the release of Evolution, the new Slum Village album. Evolution is the long-anticipated release coming on the heels of the critically acclaimed mix tapes “Dirty Slums” and “Dirty Slums 2.” This album features new music from founding member T3 along with Young RJ and Illa J.
The meaning of Evolution can be described as “a continuous change to a higher, more complex or better state” and that is exactly what Slum Village has ascribed to with their music over the years, culminating with this new album. The Evolution of Slum Village continues with a reinvigorated energy, as founding member T3 holds down the legacy along with the Grammy-nominated producer Young RJ as well as young prodigy Illa J at his side.
Evolution also includes the talents and skills of Havoc (Mobb Deep), Raheem Devaughn, Jazzy Jeff and Rapper Big Pooh, amongst others. The album was produced by T3, Young RJ and FOCUS.
Vydle Sinez & Incredible Chuck return with their new EP “Well Rested”, a superbly soulful release produced entirely by GxWay. This is right up our street and is a real testament to the true US Hip-Hop sound. Banging Boom Bap style beats and drums with lashings of jazztastic funk-drenched vibes set the tone for an audio journey that impresses.
The production is top notch, reminding me of Statik Selektah with a bit of 9th Wonder and Pete Rock thrown in for good measure. The verbal’s are dope too, with concepts covering everything from the rap game to modern day inner city living. When Hip-Hop is this good you just can’t beat this genre.
Excellent from the top to the very last drop, ‘Well Rested’ is something that needs to be in your collection. The only bad point about this release is that I wish it was a full length album. Go get this now.

Somewhere between poverty and fame – is the rest of us: Ugly Heroes. We’re regular people doing what we’ve got to do to get by. That might mean working dead-end jobs; it might mean drinking a little too much; it might mean thoughts of petty crime. For many without a rope to hold onto to, without a way out to make that move, we wonder what we’re supposed to do. It’s enough to make you desperate.
