J Dilla a.k.a Jay Dee a.k.a. Dilla Dawg
As far as I am concerned, and many people are in agreement with me, J Dilla was one of the best Hip Hop producers EVER!!!
His music inspired me and so many others to an extent which words cannot describe.
From the early years of Slum Village, Tribe Called Quest, Phat Kat, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, Tha Pharcyde...
To the Soulaquarians family; Talib Kweli, Common , Mos Def, James Poyser, Erykah Badu, Questlove & The Roots, D'Angelo, Q-Tip, Bilal, Dwele...
To the Stones Throw Movement & The Madliab Invasion...
J Dilla transcended the label of a Producer or Rapper - he was a musician, a creator, an innovator - A GENIUS!
Lost but Never Forgotten
He lives on through me, you, and every person who he touched in his short time.
Lets keep Dilla's music and legacy alive!
