Title: J Dilla Audio Doc on BBC Radio 1
Post by: ChipSuey on October 31, 2011, 03:16:40 PM

I know there are some fans of hip hop on here, so I figured I'd leave this here.

I haven't been listening to a whole lot of rap/hip hop lately, but I always had a soft spot for Dilla's production work, and Donuts is one of my favorite instrumental records (just the story behind the making of that record is both tragic and a testament to the dedication of a musician not being able to do anything but create, even on their actual deathbed.

I haven't listened to this yet, and it will only be available to listen to for the next 6 days, so if you want to listen, set aside an hour.  I'm about to while I finish out my work day.

This is great. Dilla is one of my absolute favorites.
