Happy (belated) Birthday James Yancey a.k.a. J.Dilla
We’re a lil late with this but i hope you won’t mind. the late J.Dilla would of been 35 yesterday (7.2.09) and to celebrate Stones Throw have put out 45 mins of footage of Dilla’s first show with Madlib, the v.t. also features Common and J Rocc. Click the pic to download!
Well, thank you to Madlib & the Stones Throw Family (Wolf, Jank & Egonavichi) for giving me such an experience. It was a blessing … Getting to spin for my favorite producers. I remember getting tapes from Jake One of Slum Village and beat tapes and just geeking out with the few homies who knew what time it was. Then I’m getting to d.j. and go on tour with this dude. Man, talk about a dream come true.
Anyhow…enough with the heartfelt moments..” – J. ROCC
