New J-Dilla track!
J-Dilla is like the 2Pac of hip-hop producers. He died of some rare blood disease in ‘06 and left a whole bunch of unfinished beats behind. Like 2Pac, his shit is so tight that they got a bunch of big names to record over the rough beats and they release his jams every once in a while. The Shining was 75% complete when he passed and is a great album. My favorite is Donuts, which is a collection of beats he worked on while in the hospital. This double-disc album is phenomenal. This guy is easily the best hip-hop producer of the decade.
I’m gonna go pour some tea for my dead homie (I’m still at the library).
Here’s the new track with Common:
I\’ve been pimpin\’ – Common (prod by J Dilla)
