Ventilation: Da LP is the first and only album by Phife Dawg. It was released in 2000 by Groove Attack Records.
Some of the tracks were produced by well known producers like J Dilla, Hi-Tek and Pete Rock.
I was happy with it as far as what we achieved in the studio and what we put together, but as far as the marketing and distribution, no I wasn’t happy at all, and it wasn’t the labels fault it was actually the distributors. They only put it out in certain markets. In like about 40% of the markets, and it did well for the markets that it was in but it could have done better and I felt like it was a waste a time basically, and I hate working my tail off and it goes in vain. I think everybody hates that.
