    Kenny Dope never ended up releasing an album in the Beat Generation series, ironically.

      ... Only way to get 'It's Like That' on a 12" single... This was my first taste of what would follow, having received this upfront before 'Welcome 2 Detroit' was released... It blew me away, you knew something big was coming from James Yancee, I played this over & over... After a good few years of solid production (Slum Village etc) & remixes for everyone from Busta Rhymes to The Pharcyde, this was set to be Jay Dee in his pure vision. The rest is history. Consider this an early taster to what would follow, & become a legacy everlasting. Surprised by the availability & prices, no doubt just missed as the Hawks are too lazy to dig ;-)
