Khari Mateen is a young, Philly-based producer, but he already has an impressive portfolio of production credits to his name (That's right, he was behind the boards for The Roots a few times). He's also a singer and multi-instrumentalist with plenty of songs of his own. For "Full Moon" he brought in STS, or Sugar Tongue Slim, to spit some sweet verses over the syrupy instrumental. I enjoy the production a lot, but the cello part at the end really brings the track to life for me.
[BONUS] Because of the lyrics "Soooon, she gon' have me in a dark room", I like to follow this track with "Darkroom" by one of my emerging favorites, Misun.

Make sure to check out his Bandcamp account for a slew of free releases. I thought his instrumental tape "Roy G. Biv" was a cool concept.
