The band is great no doubt but what a solid performance by Pos and Talib Kweli, not many rappers around now that perform to this standard

Is it me or are the flows a bit less off-beat than the instruments, in an uncomfortable way? Might just be the way i perceive the overlapping grooves

Is the sample from the tune they're recreating here originally from a jazz piece? If so i'd love to know the name

Leaving the open seat with the Cello for Dilla was amazing. He grew up on that instrument and a ear for music. One day people will realise what real music is too much materialism and greed but the world will reap what it's sown Realist lyrics.

Where did this takes place, Apollo theatre? Some kinda of community event? Got kids hanging out on stage and shit. It's a cool idea but I'd really like to see them get a real classical orchestra. The band sounds a little too high school, Maybe it's the acoustics.

Stakes Is High (Suite For Ma Dukes)Suite For Ma Dukes was a tribute project to J Dilla, a hip-hop producer. The gist is to perform his arrangements with a big classical orchestra.Orchestral hip-hop has been done before (Kanye West's Late Orchestration, for instance), but this one is (1 packaged as a tribute to the producer, and not the MC, and, (2 superbly executed.Enjoy!
