Silky Lady


The recent renaissance in Hiphop beats and production, especially from the LA beat scene, has induced a new celebration of timeless records from the past. Black Stars’ ‘Brown Skin Lady’ is one of those records.  Crafted by J.Rawls (a bit of an unknown really, but he loves Dilla) it exudes a silky smooth finesse which is complemented by some fine rhymes from Mos and Kweli. The success of this record is that the beat has not been overloaded with sounds; the samples have been delicately stringed together to create a flawless groove. This is basically the ethos of all Black Star records, the raps and production harmonize together to create the perfect hip hop sound.
