Natives From Da Undaground – Whatcha’ Gonna Do For Me? is some of the most underrated hip hop/rap from Detroit and Highland Park. This single is one of the hidden gems produced by J Dilla. All of the beats on this single were produced by the legendary J Dilla. The single has that East Coast rap sound and vibe. Whatcha’ Gonna Do For Me? is a poetic and lyrical rap single which gets very deep.
The song Whatcha’ Gonna Do For Me? is notable for using such heavy hand claps and bass over the sample of The Fatback Band – Put Your Love (In My Tender Care). J Dilla is a virtuoso on the keyboard. You can hear J Dilla’s early sound on this rugged instrumental with his classic snare knock and original basslines. You can hear a bit of Redman in the rap vocals. That is how Whatcha’ Gonna Do For Me? has an East Coast vibe.
Brotha’s Juss Don’t Know is the best example of some real hip hop/rap produced by the legendary J Dilla. J Dilla was very professional with his production. He had his stuff organized. Even in those days he stood out. He had every record ever made in his collection. This is one of those lyrical feel good songs with a calming vibe. This is a poetic and lyrical rap song which gets very deep. Such classic Detroit shit. Poe Whosaine and Prince Shaheed rapped on Brotha’s Juss Don’t Know as that was their song. They were members of Natives From Da Undaground.
Pack Da House has one of the illest J Dilla beats. You can hear J Dilla’s early sound on this rugged instrumental with his classic snare knock and original basslines. The song uses half-measures which is why the beats are spread out.
I rate this single 5/5*****!!
