J Dilla!

Having had a bootleg copy of the album 'Donuts' on my itunes for at least a year, its feels like everyone else knew of J Dilla and had taken Donuts played it to death and let it gather dust on their ipods. Having it fresh now and being able to play it over and over and over is refreshing and by no means tired.

This is my favourite track:




Its a shame this genius is no longer alive. Makes his work feel like such a valuable contribution to music, having influenced so many artist here after; Animal Collective, The Roots, The xx, Q Tip, The Horrors and  The Mystery Jets, the list could go on.
