Featuring Detroit’s finest, Royce Da 5′9″ and elZhi, here’s the latest visuals from Black Milk’s upcoming album, Album Of The Year, dropping September 14th.

Here’s the third and final segment with Slum Village. In this last part, Young RJ talks about picking up the microphone, them bringing J Dilla’s brother; Illa J into the fold, and of course their situation with Elzhi. Click here to check out all three parts in their entirety.

Before there was Eminem and company; Slum Village undoubtedly were the first MC’s to put the city of Detroit on their back. The trio consisted of T3, J Dilla, and Baatin, and even though J Dilla would leave the group to pursue other endeavors, he remained close with SV, and even more so by blessing newcomer (at the time) Elzhi to be his successor.

Last week, StreetLogik sat down with Slum Village members T3 and Young RJ for a video interview in New York, (which will be up soon). Their newest album, Villa Manifesto dropped today, (make sure you head out and get that). But Elzhi was absent from our talk out here in the Big Apple. Hopefully we can get a sit down with him soon.

Okay, so Royce and Whoo Kid’s mixtape, Bar Exam 3, came in a bit early and Detroit’s sprinkled throughout very nicely. With features from Black Milk, Marvwon, Trick Trick, and Elzhi as well as Bun B, Joe Budden, Kid Vishis, and more, this is definitely worth checking for.
