Ahead of the release of the Rebirth of Detroit album which features Motor City upstarts MCing over DIlla beats, this taster 10" drops two stone cold slices of head-snapping hip hop that made Dilla such a legend amongst beatsmiths. Danny Brown is on fearsome form on "Jay Dee's Revenge", slightly delirious and completely on the attack in his flow, but it's all dressing for the utterly monstrous beat underneath. A big bass lick and nagging melodic hooks make this an unmissable reappropriation of the Dilla legacy. "Birthright" finds the excellent Guilty Simpson throwing down his laconic delivery over a sparser beat with the drums at the front of the mix.
