What is a Valentine? February is Dilla Month

A friend of mine created this really incredible mixtape celebrating the birthday of the late great J. Dilla. This mixtape is a must have and there is no way, I was going to let this one not make it's way into this blog. Peace, Love & Unity.

Rest In Beats Dilla.

"(Insert countless praises, statements of how Hip Hop was influenced and transformed, and how your life has changed because of James Dewitt Yancey aka Jay Dilla aka Jay Dee aka Dilla Dawg.) In no way is the aforementioned supposed to be disrespectful, I just figured any sort of introduction isn’t needed — just let the music speak for itself.
Aired on Nuwaveradio.uk: Denz: Jay Dilla Tribute Mix Part 1 and 2, download here."
