F.U.N. (Colored LP)

Pressed on Frosted Shadow Colored Vinyl Limited to 300 Units! The latest full length album from Detroit mainstays Slum Village, F.U.N.,  has now made its way to vinyl, in this limited 300 unit colorway. The 12-track project is their first album in nearly ten years and includes fresh collaborations with Larry June, Cordae, Eric Roberson, Robert Glasper , Karriem Riggins, Abstract Orchestra , Sango, Phat Kat, Daru Jones, Earlly Mac , The Dramatics and more.  2015's critically acclaimed Yes! further cemented T3 and Young RJ's ability to effectively carry on the legacy of the seminal rap group, retaining its essence while evolving its sound with fresh new energy. However, with last year's sold out tour in Europe, and the release of the Larry June and The Dramatics-assisted "Just Like You", it was revealed that the duo was back in the lab together working on a new Slum Village album. F.U.N. finds Slum Village expanding on their signature certain sound, but still staying close to their hometown roots: Young RJ explains- “We wanted to just try something new, so we focused on making Disco-inspired music,”  and T3 notes that the recording process all “began with collecting old Disco records.” For fans who wonder why the sonic shift, and why the long hiatus between proper albums, T3 says  “Slum is still here.  We’re still relevant and we’re still trying to push the envelope. Sometimes people put too many rules on music, and without sounding cliché, we wanted to just have fun with [this album].”  F.U.N., indeed.
