I mean, really, there isn't much to be said about instrumental albums. If you dig a certain producer and their style of production, then chances are good that you won't be let down by their instrumental releases. I think we all know that Dilla doesn't make wack beats. With that being said, you can rest assured that Jay Love Japan is another dope, albeit short, release from one of the best producers hip hop has ever seen. The guest appearances are few (Ta'Raach, Exile, Baatin, & The Ruckazoid) so, for the most part, you're allowed to vibe to great beats.
As with a lot of the recent Jay Dee releases, my first beef is how short the album is. The 9 tracks clock in at a paltry 20 minutes. There aren't too many passable tracks. I think "First Time" is the only track I skip with any regularity. What's left of the rest of this EP is pretty good.
Jay Love Japan is a good release, it's just incredibly short. It's hard to really get into some of the songs due to the brevity of the album, but the little that is here is still incredibly dope. Few producers could make beats like Dilla made beats and that's what makes a lot of his albums must haves. This one is no different. I recommend adding it to your collection.
Standout Tracks: Believe In God, Oh Oh, Say It feat. Ta'Raach, Say It [Instrumental] (my favorite), and In These Streets
