June 6, 2014
As much as artists out here want that love from the place they rep, many will tell you: It’s hard to be a hero in your hometown.
Sometimes home isn’t where the heart is until you’re appreciated elsewhere. Regardless, there’s still no place like it.
– The Action Figures
Check out the lyrics from The Action Figures on “Homebound.” Solid beat by Young RJ (of Slum Village). This will be on the “Powers” mixtape from Statik Selektah.

Slum Village – “Yes Yes”
February 7, 2014
J Dilla would have been 40 years old today February 7th. As people around the world celebrate the greatness of the Detroit producer & emcee James Yancey aka Jay Dee aka J Dilla, his brother Illa J & the remaining members of Slum Village (T3 & Young RJ), let loose this joint appropriately titled ‘Yes Yes’. ‘Yes Yes’ is fitting as fans are happy to know Slum Village has a new album coming featuring more J Dilla production from the period when he was going by the name Jay Dee. Black Milk & Young RJ are also expected to provide some musical soundscapes as well. Rest in Peace J Dilla Dawg!
