Detroit's Slum Village have carried the old-school, funk, and soul-filled hip-hop torch of genre pioneers A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, and the Pharcyde. Originally comprising rappers Baatin and T3 and producer/rapper J Dilla, the group debuted in the early '90s as Ssenepod, later changing their name to Slum Village for the release of their debut, Fan-Tas-Tic, Vol. 1, in 1997. Over the course of almost a dozen efforts, Slum Village issued their highest-charting album, Trinity (Past, Present and Future), in 2002, peaking on the Hot 100 in 2004 with the single "Selfish," featuring Kanye West and John Legend. Their lineup has experienced significant changes due to the exit of J Dilla (2001), the death of Baatin (2009), and the departure of Elzhi (2010). Slum Village became a duo in the 2010s with T3 joined by producer Young RJ. Assorted compilations and projects such as Yes! (2015) and The Source (2019), along with performances well into the 2020s, have followed since then.
