DJ Premier Drops Volume 3 of His Forgotten Track Series “Beats That Collected Dust”
In 2008, DJ Premier unveiled the inaugural edition of “Beats That Collected Dust.” With decades of experience in the music industry, Premier had solidified his reputation as a go-to producer for some of hip-hop’s most prominent artists, including Jay-Z, Kanye West, Method Man, and the Notorious B.I.G., among others.
This mixtape consisted of a compilation of beats that Premier had crafted for other artists but had never seen the light of day, quickly gaining favor among fans.
In 2011, Preemo followed up with “Beats That Collected Dust, Vol. 2.” Fast forward over a decade from that last release, and he has now pleasantly surprised his audience with “Beats That Collected Dust, Vol. 3.”
Every track on this tape is the exclusive handiwork of Premier, and he shares that each one has its own fascinating backstory.
“I have a deep appreciation for distinctive releases, and ‘Beats That Collected Dust’ is undoubtedly unique,” Premier commented. “I’ve always been the one responsible for titling the projects I produce, and ‘Beats That Collected Dust’ fits perfectly. This format is an original instrument, much like talk beds, freestyles, composing verses, and, of course, just plain listening.”
You can now stream DJ Premier’s “Beats That Collected Dust, Vol. 3” on all major platforms.
