Exclusive Freeload: Illa J f. Guilty Simpson, “R U Listenin”

September 15, 2008


We've been spending quite a bit of time with Illa J's upcoming album Yancey Boys, an album that establishes Illa J as an artist in his own right while paying tribute to his late brother Jay Dee with an entire album's worth of vintage unreleased Dilla beats. "R U Listenin" is the immediate standout, sounding like an outtake from the Pharcyde's Labcabincalifornia, which by default makes it pretty much the best thing to hear in one of the last few remaining summer evenings. Also, not that it's our thing (it might be our thing), but if you wanted to put on some headphones and smoke a "jazz cigarette" and talk about how blown your mind is, we would think that it would be pretty appropriate to do it to this song.
