The contributions of the late Detroit producer James DeWitt Yancey –better known to the world as J Dilla- to the world of hip-hop can't be overstated, and nowhere is his legacy more apparent than his work as a member of Slum Village. A founding member of the trio, (Alongside rappers T3 and Baatin) Dilla provided the group's distinctly esoteric, free-wheeling sound, built around winding basslines, quirky drumbeats, subtle low-end frequencies, and classic jazz & soul samples. Against the backdrop of Dilla's rich production, T3 and Baatin's free-flowing style of rhyming would also earn wide critical praise, leading to comparisons as the successors to A Tribe Called Quest. (A label they themselves have rejected.)After the success of Slum's 1997 studio debut, Fan-Tas-Tic Vol. 1, the group went to work on their follow up. Though the project was completed in '98, label turmoil kept the project on ice until 2000.

By the time Fantastic Volume II hit Dilla was well on his way to his status as a hip hop legend having produced cuts for Common, Busta Rhymes, Erykah Badu, A Tribe Called Quest and many more. Later works from Slum Village may have had more of an impact sales-wise (in the immediate) but Fantastic Vol. 2 had fans and many critics saying that Slum Village, and Dilla in particular, may 'single-handedly save rap music.' Perhaps that statement is hyperbole but many consider Fantastic Volume II to be Slum Village's finest work ever to this day.Ne'Astra Media Group now presents the album reissued on vinyl, for the first time in several years. Every wobbling bass note of J Dilla's production has been preserved to maintain the legacy of this hip hop rap classic and maintain the legend of one of hip-hop's greatest beatsmiths. Fat Beats began as a small basement shop located in Manhattan's Lower East Side. We quickly became an integral hub for artists, both aspiring and established, to convene and collaborate. Our retail stores spread from New York to Los Angeles, Atlanta, Amsterdam, and Tokyo and alongside retail expansion we developed into a wholesale distribution company & record label.Despite market fluctuations, technological innovations and stylistic revolutions, Fat Beats; as a distributor, record label, online storefront, and retail store, continues to thrive. We remain steadfast in our commitment to the timeless vinyl format and the loyal community who keeps it spinning.
Slum Village had been around long before this underground hip-hop trio from Detroit finally managed to release its major label debut.
Fantastic Vol. 2 was originally finished in 1998, but due to their record label's financial decline, the project was left in limbo for more than a year. As a result the group were left to look elsewhere to release the record, eventually settling with Goodvibe Recordings & Barak Records in 2000.
Although technically, while it wasn't the group's first official album, it's predecessor, Fan-Tas-Tic Vol. 1, was only leaked to a small underground circuit. It wasn't officially released for another eight years and several of the tracks were actually redubbed for Vol. 2. The group was also forced by its label to release the Best Kept Secret, a 10-song EP, under the name J-88.
In the beginning, the group consisted of three key components—the lyrical aptitude of Detroit rappers T3 and Baatin with the artfully sampled beats of James 'J Dilla' Yancey—often made them considered the torchbearers of groups like A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul.
AUDIO: Slum Village Fan-Tas-Tic Vol. 1
'It was a lot of shit with that album. You can't talk about Vol. 2 without talking about Vol. 1. The fact that Vol. 1 was heard word of mouth to guys who were already established made Vol. 2 so great,' T3 said in an interview with Okayplayer last year. 'All those artists on the album, we didn't have to pay those artists. They loved us based off our history. Nobody gets that. This was before favors were handed out. Now that's the norm, but back then, no. Those were all favors. Pete Rock, D'angelo, Kurupt. These are people who just wanted to be there, like ‘I gotta be on this album!''
J Dilla had already established somewhat of a name for himself by the time the album was released in 2000. He was one of the co-creators of The Ummah, a production collective formed with Q-Tip and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, and a key ingredient behind the Soulquarians collective, led by The Roots drummer Questlove, with D'Angelo, and James Poyser, who were responsible for numerous hit records including Mama's Gun by Erykah Badu, Things Fall Apart by The Roots, and Like Water for Chocolate by Common.
Fantastic Vol. 2, was primarily produced by Jay Dee, with some guest production by D'Angelo, Pete Rock, and Questlove, and appearances by Q-Tip, Busta Rhymes, Kurupt, DJ Jazzy Jeff and Common.
'It's just a classic project. You can't turn back a classic. It was so ahead of its time that the powers that be didn't get it until after the fact,' T3 told Okayplayer. 'Not to get too deep about it, but we were a part of the album. People think it's just J Dilla by himself in a think tank. No! That's not how this album was done. It was me, Baatin, Dilla, and a few other dudes there as well… There's a lot of shit that we did on the album that people don't necessarily know about. It's a legacy with that. It's a group effort.'
The album cover was designed by Waajeed of the Detroit hip-hop/R&B group, the Platinum Pied Pipers, and founder of the Bling47 record label. He has remained a close friend of the group over the years, and was the one who later connected the group with Elzhi. He was also the executive producer behind Dwele's self-released debut, Rize, which helped land him a deal with Virgin Records in 2003.
Originally running about a minute in length, 'I Don't Know,' was one of several tracks reimagined for Fantastic Vol. 2 with a remix featuring DJ Jazzy Jeff. Other tracks that were re-recorded from the group's demo include 'Beej N Dem,' 'Forth and Back,' and '2U4U' featuring Karriem Riggins on drums.
Dilla was a master of the sample. He used tracks by Steve Miller Band, Alice Cooper, Kool & the Gang, Don Blackman, Sugar Hill Gang, Crown Heights Affair, and The Singers Unlimited to create tracks like 'Climax (Girl Shit),' 'Go Ladies,' 'Players,' 'Fall-N-Love,' and 'Forth and Back.'

'Raise it Up' was also a major single for Slum Village, but originally featured a sample from a bootleg recording. The instrumental uses a sample of the track 'Extra Dry' by Thomas Bangalter of Daft Punk, who just so happened to also be a fan of the Detroit rap group. In exchange for their permission to use the sample for the track, the group agreed to remix the group's dance hit, 'Aerodynamic' for their 2003 Daft Club remix album.
