Jungle Brothers – I Got U
Re-Release of the Classic 2006 LP I Got U on audiophile-grade double LP set Vinyl
The Jungle Bros make an eclectic stylistic voyage – stopping off at house music, via Afrocentric philosophies, James Brown, as well as the use of jazz samples, on I Got U.
The album is reissued as a coloured audiophile grade double LP, remastered and re-released with additional tracks. Jungle Brothers – comprised of Michael Small (Mike Gee), Nathaniel Hall (Afrika Baby Bam), and Sammy Burwell (DJ Sammy B), are known as the pioneers of the fusion of jazz, hip-hop, and house music. they were the first hip-hop group to collaborate with a house-music producer.
The trio released their debut album, Straight Out The Jungle in July 1988. Their hip-house club hit single, ‘I’ll House You’ was added to the album in late-1988 reissues. Fostered by Kool DJ Red Alert, the Jungle Brothers influential work paved the way for acts such as De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest, and eventually the Native Tongues collective that they founded.
