Sunset Blvd (Vinyl) - By: Yancey Boys - Model Number: KU2LP123

Description

KingUnderground & Delicious Vinyl present a lovingly re-issued version of this sought after & seminal hip-hop record, with all beats by J Dilla, featuring Common, Talib Kweli, Posdnuos, T-3 & Guilty Simpson, and the first time re-issued on vinyl since 2013. 

Back in 2008, just two years after James Yancey aka J Dilla™s passing, Mike Ross, founder of Delicious Vinyl, presented J Dilla™s mother Maureen Yancey (aka Ma Dukes), with a vault of unreleased beats from her late son.

Following Dilla™s childhood friend (and longtime collaborator) Frank Nitty (Of Frank N™ Dank) was a part of a group of confidants, who lovingly went through the treasure chest of music, formulating a tribute to their departed friend the best way they knew how. With hundreds upon hundreds of instrumentals to choose from, Nitty and Dilla™s brother Illa J narrowed the pile down to a collection of about 50 tracks, some of which would become the building blocks of their debut 2013 Yancey Boys album, ˜Sunset Blvd™.

Upon its release in 2013, the LP (which featured appearances from Hip-Hop royalty including Common, Talib Kweli, Posdnuos, T-3 & Guilty Simpson) became an instant classic, gaining recognition from tastemakers across the world.
