What's left to say about DJ Premier that hasn't already been said? He is the king. Arguably the best hip hop producer of all time, Premier's work with Gang Starr was legendary by itself, but he didn't stop there. He kept going... and going... and going. These tracks are some of the best beats he's ever put out and they're all instrumental for your enjoyment.

Flying Lotus - Massage Situation

This was a nice downtempo/instrumental hip-hop track I heard last night on Adult Swim while I was staying up wayyy to late.
