Slum Village release new song to celebrate J Dilla's birthday

Today is the birthday of J Dilla, the legendary Slum Village producer who died from a rare blood disorder in 2006. To commemorate what would've been Dilla's 40th birthday, the remaining members of Slum Village released a new track over a previously unreleased Dilla production. Check out "Yes Yes" below:

 

Today is also the date of the 2014 Dilla Day Detroit concert and three days before the 8th anniversary of Jay Dee's death. 

(Interesting fact: Dilla was born the same day that Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles was released.)

What do you think of "Yes Yes," the new commemorative track from Slum Village?
