Bishop Lamont – Get ‘Em Girl (ft. Talib Kweli) (produced by J Dilla, Focus).
After he left Aftermath, Bishop Lamont said in an interview that he would bless us with a tidal wave of unreleased music that he secured from Interscope:
We’re about to finally bless the world with a lot of music. It got to the point where it wasn’t fair to the fans or to myself to have to keep on waiting. I understand that labels have obligations, but it was difficult to have fans coming up to you and asking when I was going to get a release date. There’s a lot of crazy records I got to take with me. There’s a J Dilla record that I got with the blessing of DJ House Shoes. Tracks from DJ Khalil, Lord Finesse, 9th Wonder, Mr. Porter, Focus, basically a who’s who of underground hip-hop.
He also spoke of Dr. Dre records. But Bishop has been extremely quiet except for a few leaks like this one and his album The Reformation is nowhere in sight. Bishop announced today that a new project called The Shawshank Redemption/Angola 3 is due in September.
“Get ‘Em Girl” must be the record he got from House Shoes. Is there a Dilla expert in the house who can tell us if this beat is new? Talib Kweli says the song is “OLD as hell.”

Dilla’s beat is from 2002. By the way, a variation of it was used at the end of “Soul Power” on Common’s 2002 album ‘Electric Circus’.
Here’s the original beat and you’ll hear how much Focus… remixed it: http://usershare.net/621glqqyucco
