Always on the grind, LMNO has recorded a few hundred songs over the past two years. Working with some of the most accomplished producers in the game, the consensus is in and this is some of LMNO’s best work ever. His work ethic is simple. Give him some beats, he records over each one, then asks for more, and in due time, the album is done. Let’eMkNOw is a reflection of that work ethic. Running with some of today’s hottest producers such as Kev Brown, J.Rocc (Beat Junkies), Dert, LD, Georgia Anne Muldrow (Stones Throw) and even two of France’s most hailed up-and-coming beat makers Yann Kesz and Astronote, LMNO has decided to give the people a glimpse at some of his soon-tobe- released material. Let’eMkNOw is limited to only 1,000 pieces and this 32-track CD is merely a sneak-peak to “let ‘em know” that some of LMNO’s best work is yet to come. krooked

The Oxtopus was specifically recorded for the Oxtopus compilation. This was one of the last times Dilla ever graced the mic. Also, if you notice, the beat is basically a snap back at the song Grindin’ by The Clipse. There’s a video on youtube of J-Rocc playing it live in Sweden, but no one seems to know where this track came from. Now ya know, Lyrics like, “I’m ill wit da pill you tired then take 2/wit dill in ya system dog ya cant lose/ya now rockin’ with the O.X/I’m back like black kojack up in you like kotex/I know you tired of the same ole same ole/the way my chains hang dog, those things get tangled”. The final version has Dilla doing a chorus, that went something like “So what’s the name of the jam? / The Oxtopus (yep) / wassup wit wavin’ dem hands / we got cha hooked (yep) / wassup wit blazin dem yams / we got the kush ” O.X. ROCKIN ON… Messa&Listen Compute Rock

Dill Withers

Been listening to The Ma Dukes Collection (Mixed By Rhettmatic J. Rocc and Houseshoes). You can get this CD on some tours of artist related to J.Yancey. On this mix there’s another mix from J.Rocc with some Dilla samples. I know we already posted a Dilla sample mix BUT this mix reminded me of a tape with tracks before Fantastic Vol 1. Don’t know how that got into our hands but I do know y’all need to hear it if you haven’t already. So listen to that here and download that Dill Withers mix. Question: What’s the The Hustle sample and the track of the 10.24 sample. First who knows one of the 2 gets something special.
