Background
Four years after the release of their self-titled fifth album, the Detroit trio (T3, Baatin, Elzhi) decided to work on another album. After the group's disputes were resolved in 2008, late founding member Baatin reunited with the other group members and worked on the group's long-awaited sixth LP Villa Manifesto before his death in 2009. The EP A&R by DJ Scrap Dirty (Violator Allstar DJs) serves as a prelude to the album which was released on July 27, 2010.[6][7]
