Slum Village - Reunion Pt.2 feat. Illa J

[sneakfiend4forvever]

only illa j did good

[sneakfiend4forvever]

only illa j did the beat right got damn man

[sneakfiend4forvever]

Why the fuck did they call this reunion part 2 baatin and j dilla are dead and Elzhi dont hang with him cause t3 a lame mc and a fake ass homeboy there shouldnt even be a slum village. wtf man this song is garage

[exzotik81]

I only listen to Baatin's verse cuz I'm mad at T3 for how he let RJ do Elzhi.

[GeneralKnewSense]

Villa Manifesto Aye may have to lock that in the mental rolladecks fo the next time im in the record store

[Logikbombmusik]

illa J is Cool, But Im not feelin his verse.

[iRo3000]

the whole song sounds like an intro.. like it is ready to begin, but it doesnt.

[polishRFC88]

7 people listening lady gaga

[illustriousimagery]

Illa J had nice flow on this joint.. and his rhymes were tight, real s**t

[higgieme2]

Da Slum make some hot azz skate beats to skate to!  Word Up!

[hellrazor24]

7 motherfuckers aint got they head on straight

[clarencejones07]

gotta great book with Slum Village interviiewed, book is the 1 called= 'HOW..TO-RAP

the book has pretty much all the dopest emcees and groups ever, like Tribe, Public Enemy, Big Daddy Kane, Pharcyde, Hieroglyphics, Blackalcious, Aesop Rock, Little Brother, Brand Nubian ,,Black Moon, tons of legends!

[SUPERSILVERH8ORADE]

@clarencejones07 & you post them on every video? do you have 10 accounds aswell? fuck you trying to sell a book on this video fuck off

[supermcfly100]

This song does still beat the bs they play on the radio. I guess this is baatin responding to elzhi front elzhi verse on the first reunion. T3 ok I guess. illa j ain't the best rapper but on the last song of villa manifesto he does have a good verse.

[TheImage101]

i MADE A SONG CALLED BACKSTABBERZ FROM A J DILLA BEAT.

COMMENT AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!

#DOPE MUZIK

[Treeeezy4]

Damn let them live.....yall suckin hella dick right now lol

[Pai001]

i just found the sample source for the drums while lookin through some records

[xxIVIANEUVERSxx]

You guys are ignorant as fuck. If you minor fan boys are gonna get all technical bout a group, get your shit straight. El ain't doin his own thing and T3 is prob the weakest of the severed 4. I been listenin to this shit prob b4 any of you could walk so i know my facts.

[DovelleCB]

I luv Slum Village always have and always will but the truth is Slum Village is done. Without Dilla, Baatin, and now Elzhi wants to do his own thing. There is no group to continue on with.

[steeltownbrown52]

@guerillatribe T3 say "group on his own"? "I'm Jazzy"-Guru ft. Slum Village, there's ya answer,LOL. Illa J's Yancey Boys album was one of the best albums I heard in 2008. As long as SV's next LP(if and when it happens) has the right beats then they'll be alright. SV hasn't been a "lyrics" type group to begin with.

[sievans123]

i dont like the fact illa really started rappin AFTER Dilla Died. LIke He got more noticed after he died. just because your not The Musical Mastermind God Known as J DILLA, nor will you compare. dont mean you gotta make a name off him. He even said chicks find out i was dillas brother (SMH)

other than that hes okay

[Timo710]

This is not the sequal to Reunion... The Real sequal is Action by Black Milk featuring Elzhi, T3 and Baatin! Which came out in 2007...

This joint is okay though...

[dankchops]

what. the. fuck.

[MrLovingspain]

they don't have the quality no more

[neofantomu]

anyone have instrumental

[rmsg120nsb]

please, bring back elzhi, otherwise you'll lose a big number of fans...

[drmad21]

Baatin part is the best, the rest is shit.

MaD

-Great SV fan ever

[lamonte74]

Is it just me or is T3 lookin like Beenie Siegel ? (lol,lol)

[TheBKyo]

Nothing can beat Dillas beats but Young RJ seems pretty dope so far ♫

[YungToneyTwizt29]

Man cats be coming in going in Slum Village. 

[IBlackThought9]

DETROIT has some of the most underrated MCs/Producers.

But all I ask for is a collabo with One Be Lo & Elzhi produced by Black Milk/and some beats from J Dilla!

[TheHedAke]

THIS SON IS FUCKING TERRIBLE

[chicagoconnoisseur]

Baatin's verse is classic!! R.I.P.

[chicagoconnoisseur]

Man...Illa J rockin' a Gumby!

[chrleko]

Im a big fan but i aint really feeling this.. reunion 1 was WAAYYYYY BETTER!

[steeltownbrown52]

@chrleko The first "Reunion" was on some Marvel Ultimate Alliance-type ish.

[DovelleThaDon]

If this is the last album which I believe it is at least SV is one hip hop group that kept it real. Never sold their souls to go to fucken Hollywood like FAGGOT ASS BLACK EYE PEAS AND KANYE WEST DICK SUCKIN ASS! SV keeps it hip hop from 1993 to 2010. DAMN THAT IS ALONG TIME NOW DO THE MATH AND COUNT HOW MANY OTHER HIP HOP HEADS SOLD THE FUCK OUT LIKE A LITTLE BITCH!

[DovelleThaDon]

Slum Village is one of the best Hip Hop groups that step foot in the game. Luv them to death but let's be honest that this is the last album. When Dilla did his own thing SV still manage. When Baatin left T3 and Elzhi still hold it down. Now that Dilla and Baatin R.I.P It's not like they could come back to SV anymore. We all know Elzhi is doing his own shit, so that leaves T3 and Illa J and we all know that Illa J is not the original member who his brother was. IT'S A BANGIN ALBUM 2 BE THE LAST!

[Pai001]

Illa J kills it!

[mynameisdady]

No... This is fucked up. This isn't reunion. Slum village gone fucked. Fuck T3 What happened to Elzhi. This is what happens when you contract. They lied about Elzhi. why are they spittin bout baatin and dilla, at the end of the day neither of them would want Elzhi to go. he brought shit to slum village. Baatin went crazy and started flippin out about the Label shit. i can barely listen to T3 anymore...

[veyronzondaf]

Keepin the sound true to SV..

[CDsnuts000]

Rip baatin

[MrDRH2]

drums sound like j dilla's "nothing like us"

[keysdat1]

well im the woman in the video and im a new artist thats also on track 9 off the new album..

[deweygal]

random question who are those other random people in the background? like the woman and i think that younger guy is illa j correct?

[chrismaddenbitch]

@deweygal Slum Village won't exist because of it, haha.

I'm a huge Slum fan but RJ's dad/T3 ran that shit directly into the ground. It's El's time to shine now.

[kindubi]

BIG UP SLUM VILLAGE KREW

Rest In Peace BAATIN & DILLA

[exzotik81]

I wonder why Elzhi wasn't on the song

[deweygal]

@exzotik81 because t3 and sv management are pulling diva moves and ousted elzhi out the group, which is ridiulous since considering elzhi is the best lyricist. what foolishness! I'm mad I am thinking about making a petition, would anyone sign?

[chrismaddenbitch]

@deweygal If you're serious, you're stupid.

[deweygal]

@chrismaddenbitch well i was joking about the petition part, but i am dead as serious about the rest. Kicking out elzhi was stupid and slum village will suffer because of it.

[exzotik81]

@deweygal I heard about that. But I thought all that happened after the album came out.

[verbaltension33]

@deweygal best lyricist probably in the game

not just Detroit.....I still got love for T3 tho, my guy.

[mrcheereo]

@deweygal I would fa sho'

[sayckeone]

@deweygal A petition for what? To bring Elzhi back? SV was holding El back. Fuck SV. The only reason anyone payed any attention to them was Dilla, and when he left, Elzhi, and Black Milk's beats. Tin was straight, but nothing remarkable. T3 is just laughable at this point. And Illa J? Just listen to his verse in this. Talk about irrelevant.

[Empha84]

@deweygal I agree Elzhi is a beast and to oust him is a dumb move.

[vidgy]

How can you call this a letdown? One of the best albums (Villa Manifesto LP) i've heard in a long time. You should have a little more respect for this group...

Big up SV !

(but can someone give me a good explanation why El's not on it?)

[SMH12289]

T3 said in a XXl interview that Elzhi wasnt on this track because this is a continuation of the 1st Reunion track so Baatin's verse was a response to what Elzhi said on the 1st Reunion track. My issue with what T3 said is if thats true, why take a shot at Elzhi on this track and shoot the vid behind his back? and how can someone like Black Milk make a cameo in this vid when T3 is takin shots at Elzhi?

[verbaltension33]

@SMH12289 black milk wasn't even in this video....

Rio Data, aka Mario Butterfield, ILLA J, T3

Black wasnt in it.

[SMH12289]

@verbaltension33 Oh, ok, thx...I coulda swore that was Black but watching it again you're right..my bad

[Treeeezy4]

@mrmaoam yea i feel u

[Treeeezy4]

@mrmaoam so you didnt like Yancy Boys?

[mrmaoam]

@Treeeezy4 No I wasn't a huge fan of Yancey Boys, It wasn't awful but most of those beats sounded like dilla throw away's and like I said dude can't rap. But that's just my opinion.

[superdertie]

@mrmaoam

thank you. illa j needs to focus on his on steez and stop implying he's anywhere near as genius as his brother

[steeltownbrown52]

@mrmaoam Sure they were thrown-away tracks but they were Dilla's best, still. I'll take mid to late 90's Dilla tracks over Donuts("the name of the game is lightworks" *scoffs*), anyday. Those beats and Illa J's voice worked so well. "Yancey Boys" definitely was one of the most overlooked albums of the decade.

[emceenomoney]

slum v without elzhi = FAIL.

[Treeeezy4]

@emceenomoney hes not even a original member lol

[4255lynn]

I think what they did to El is wrong in the end people will get what they deserve

[cmrx21]

this is such a letdown, after how epic the first Reunion was...

how can you call this Reunion and leave out one of the most prominent members...

[logikorganik]

To be foreal yall, Slum was Fine without EL. I mean, he's a vicious MC, but he couldnt make SV like it was when it was just JAY DEE, BAATIN and T3. Even tho the rhymes wasnt always on point (Exept DIlla and Baatin) THEY WERE MORE FUNKY. Listen to SLUM VILLAGE FANTASTIC VOLUME 1 & 2 b4 yall make some "Where's Elzhi?" Comments ~ LOGIKBOMB (DC PRODUCER)

[steeltownbrown52]

@logikorganik Thank You.

[braheen]

To quote the hip-hop classic album, "Death Certificate" (with a modification)

SLUM VILLAGE AIN'T SHIT WITHOUT ELZHI!!! AHHHHHH HAAAAAAA!

To be real, Slum albums haven't been the same since Dilla left and Elzhi was your only saving grace. That's a dummy move kicking Elzhi out the group.

The track should be called, "The Division" instead of The Reunion 2.

[SkyDrifter13]

WHERE IS ELZHI THE GOD ?

THIS AIN'T SLUM !

[termanology85]

@SkyDrifter13 T3 did him dirty.

[codaquinn12]

Illa J is ok and I don't mind him too much (except when he tries to sing)

Would anyone listen to him if he wasn't James' bro? Exactly

Anyone see that interview the day this album dropped with T3? Elzhi wouldn't come on the show as a part of SV, only as Elzhi

Just a matter of time before they are official over.. T3 is the worst member of the group both musically and behind the scenes..

I'm more upset he says this is a 'SV album' not a Elzhi album but yet he has this random AB singer all over

[MrKing8050]

damn T3 , u fucked up a good thing u got exposed as to being the worse member of SV u nothin without Batin, Dilla and Elzhi

[djINFINITEspace]

God Damn T3 sucks. ILLA J? ahahaha, Seriously? Why not just call yourself J ILLA? Or is that too obvious? Elzhi is better than this fat ass and these other clowns anyways. look at me! Im Jay Dee's brother, I can't rap for shit but I'm gonna join a group my brother left from? Wowzers

[Treeeezy4]

@djINFINITEspace stop the hate...I understand you a Elzhi fan but dont diss T3 who been in the group from the jump & ILLA J is dope regardless.

[mrmaoam]

@Treeeezy4 I agree with you aside from illa being dope, that was a weak ass verse to drop on the reunion part 2...he's just talking about girls and money. It just proves how irrelevant he is, just cause he's dilla's brother doesn't mean he's talented.

[martialguitarist]

according to elzhi, they shot the video behind his back and didnt even tell him....and thats the least of what happened....damn...dilla wouldnt allow this ish if he was still here.

[typhoonH]

Can't believe the beef that's goin on right now! This beat is super hot too! I wish El woulda ripped this one.

[Beatpfefferer]

where the fuck is elzhi???

[mrmaoam]

Aside from all that bullshit with the members of SV this albums dope.

[ineedmuney1]

anyone who wants to know the story behing who is replacing who or whatever just look up slum village on Wikipedia and it will kinda fill you in on whats been going on with them... Might help answer some of your questions...

[DoctorSoul86]

SV replacing Elzhi with Illa J now? Say it ain't so...

[diesstro]

elzhi is the sickest mc in detroit. period. sv without dilla and elzhi.. come on y'all.

[cdubkush]

young rj

[Jona411]

Produced by Illa J I guess or am I wrong?

[AbsoluteChaosMusic]

picture the emotional discomfort T3 had to grow through these 5 years

[BlackJackNapier]

Actually fellas, this isn't Elzhi's fault at all. He's far from Hollywood. What's happening is internal beef with the label...which is why production pulled most of his vocals off the album. I don't know if you guys know, but SV has died. And it makes me sick to my stomach as a fan...first Dilla. Then Baatin. Now the group as a whole. This was their final album.

[YoungJordanAI3]

can't wait till the album drops!

[9Bamba5]

Beat was made with a synth,right?

[sumosounds]

Baatin is the don. RIP

[keysdat1]

wow im about to enter the hip hop world and i clearly see how people can go on and on with stories and by the time they are all delivered they different, me being around them and knowing the truth then reading all of this makes me say wow but I can't put it out there. Opinions is truely opinions by the way im the female in the video holla

[9Bamba5]

@keysdat1

Can u tell us how great is the percentage of rumors going on here that are true? And im not askin any inside info about this stuff. No problem if you dont wanna tell us tho,and congrats for being in the video!

[aaronmts]

you so call fans are trippin.. this song does is not shit.

look how they used those j dilla drums of "nothing like this" mad grimey.

r.i.p jay dee & baatin

(illa j looks exactly like dilla like in the the fantastic vol. 1 cover)

[Jona411]

@aaronmts this song is good. don't be so perfectionist about 'em drums. the result is great. admire it.

[SockzNebulon]

nah this is shit!

they cant call this track a sequal to one of the best slum tracks ever....

not a good look S.V have fallen off!

[Timo710]

Good joint, but where the fuck is Elzhi...

I kinda feel kicked in my balls as a fan.

[rx7sign]

Dont believe 2dope its full of a bunch of fake hip hop faggets who think Asher is the hardest rapper out and Drake is the most lyrical, fucking joke.

Dope shit!@video

[DopenessTaiwan]

T3 , Elzhi , Dilla , Baatin , Illa J , Young RJ its all SLUM VILLAGE family , its all good stuff . People , please dont create any negative shit between them !!!!

[nyfinest2000]

Read the comments on 2 DOPEBOYZ.COM RJ RICE (THE LABEL) IS Probably scamming Elzhi out of money. And Word is that, THEY DID THIS VIDEO BEHIND ELZHI'S BACK. He didnt' even now they were shooting it! My boy from Barack/Ne'Astra gave me the real inside scoop.

[BigPat310]

@nyfinest2000 BWahahahaha If U Believe that Shh Obama gonna Catch Bin Ladin hahah. From what i heard Out here Elzhi Knew about this Video,The Night Video, Faster Video ,but hes so hollywood he never showed up. elzhi cant be the angel in all this seems funny to me. but u can be right too we would never know.

[stillthewhizz]

When I saw them in London Elzhi looked really unhappy when the older stuff got played and I suppose he struggled to get out of that era's shadow. Must be hard when the crowd is crying out for songs that don't have you in them. Just as long as they get the Manifesto out I'm happy.

[blablamusic]

hot!

[pepperjack91]

That was amazing.  kinda wish Elzhi was still in the group though. T3's lookin' like he's pickin' his verses up though. that was nice stuff.

[jerelny]

Beat is hot...and not saying Elzhi would've made it better, but Illa J is a terrible rapper and T3 is, has been and always will be average at best. And the rift between these niggas is so obvious... it's been the elephant in the room in every pre Villa Manifesto media release over the past couple of month. The album should be pretty good, but let's be honest here: T3 will not have a career without Elzhi by his side. And Illa J should go back to doing whatever he did before Dilla died.

[nyfinest2000]

This is soooo WACK with out ELZHI...... this has to almost go down as one of the worst hip hop decisions ever made. So its true...they did kick Elzhi out the group! thats a fuckin shame.

[BloodyThumb09]

@nyfinest2000 I DONT KNOW WHERE U GETTIN INFO BUT ELZHI IS STILL IN THE GROUP- HE PROBABLY CHOSE NOT 2 BE ON THE SONG

[BloodyThumb09]

@BloodyThumb09! scratch that !

[katdan510]

@BloodyThumb09

cant remember where i read it but i read sumwhere that they replaced elzhi with illa.

fuck it elzhi didnt really fit SV....if you watch that video where Elzhi breaks down his "paterns" u can tell SV was about flow and vibe whereas El was about Lyrics, delivery and patterns...not to take away form SV, i still love them, just two different vibes

[gwizz83]

@katdan510 couldnt have said that better! wow thats some dirty shit! if all thats true that is a HUGE mistake... for T3 that is cuz its a wrap. Elzhi shoulda been on his own shit anyway.

[MightyJahShaka]

Real Hip Hop!

[ajarni]

This album will be a classick!!!! all the legends n current SV representatives!!

r.i.p. dilla n baatin

[7thcity]

S.V.

[covertempire]

DOPE!

[DJGetItTotheMasses]

wow, T3 just single-handedly made me a fan of SV. i mean all of 'em, but 3's just honest w. his lyrics

[codaquinn12]

@DJGetItTotheMasses

Too bad he can't be like that in real life.. With an original mem of the group and now this shit w/ Elzhi? Damn, what happened to the D?

SV is suppose to be about persevering and being real with everything
