This one is for J Dilla. My initial intention was to create this in February (Dilla Month). However, things got crazy and I did not have the time. But, better late than never. One thing to note is that this is in NO way a definitive or comprehensive selection of the man's work. (If you don't know, his discography is extensive. Just check stonesthrow.com if you don't believe me). The records contained within these 70 minutes (give or take) are just some of my favorites. All of these tracks were either produced by Dilla or feature his rhymes. Some of the usual suspects are featured like "Fall in Love" by Slum Village and "Runnin" by The Pharcyde. I also threw in some rarer joints like "Diamonds" from Dilla's unreleased MCA album, and the Frank-N-Dank 12 inch "I'll Bet You Will that I had to order from a record store in London. More volumes of these Dilla-themed mixes to come. TURN IT UP!!!!
