Potatohead People: Mellow Fantasy (Indie Exclusive Colored Vinyl) Vinyl LP
"Potatohead People's much lauded and instantly sold out third LP Mellow Fantasy is back with a very limited edition black & blue swirl vinyl repress. The album showcases the trademark instrumental prowess of the duo and their ease with the loose but hard-hitting drum style brought to the fore by Jay Dee’s influential productions, but goes well beyond basic boom bap bread and butter, with singer-centered R&B and uptempo bumps sharing the stage. Pos from De La Soul immediately connected with 'Baby Got Work,' a sophisticated slap that went through several iterations before settling into its ultimate form. Appropriately, the song’s diligent construction echoes the ethic of the grind in the clear-eyed, precisely dovetailed lyrics fans have come to expect from the Daisy Age don. Befitting Potatohead People’s origins as a hip-hop group, cameos from Illa J and Slum Village’s T3 on the summertime teaser 'What It Feels Like' and Vancouver veteran Moka Only (the sassy, vanity take-down 'Ungodly') add to the unimpeachable rap bonafides. On this album, Potatohead People have widened the frame of their progressive musical vision and deliver a far-reaching yet approachable set of moods and grooves. " - Bastard Jazz
