On the 10th it will have been 2 years since J Dilla passed away. Dilla is one of my favorite producers of all time, and his music never seems to lose that spark it had when I first heard it. Today is Dilla's birthday, if you have never heard his work, give yourself a present and check some out.
Grab the Thank you Jay Dee Act 3 Podcast on itunes. Over an hour of Dilla classics.
Some standout dilla tracks...
A Tribe Called Quest-1nce again
This song changed how I thought about hip hop. 1996. I didn't even know what a producer was then. 10 years later I realized Dilla did the beat.
J Dilla - Nothing Like This
When I first heard this song I wasn't sure what to think. A bit different, but the video is great.
J Dilla - Won't Do
Classic Dilla style and swagger. Posthumous video featuring his brother.
Highlights from Donuts
10 Minutes of Donuts, if these don't get your head nodding I don't know what will.
