Does anyone know what the original song name for this beat is?

I’m not a Foxy Brown fan but I do watch the Hot Spot video at least once every 6 months ‘cause she’s fuckin’ sexy with that lil’ tummy snarling lip and oiled thighs…Anyway I was watching it on Spotify today and a tune called B.K. Anthem came up next. Now I know acts like Flying Lotus and Hiatus Kaiyote don’t exist without J Dilla, but I wondered if anyone had some more obscure, but blatant Dilla rip-offs beside B.K Anthem

Does anyone know what the BPM for Ash Rockin by J Dilla is? Specifically the version uploaded to Palmeras Video's channel? Thanks

I heard once track from Dilla that came from a dancehall song. Can you help me what's the title of it?

Hello everyone,

I bought a J Dilla Foundation LP but unfortunately the COA has the „Official Ma Dukes“ signature missing..

I tried to contact them on Instagram, same as Ma Dukes — negative, no respond at all. And even the website is not helpful at all

My hope is, obviously, to get a signature post-distribution if I send it to them

I am able to provide receipts, pictures,..

thx ..

Especially on 96 batch, I hear a certain quality or lack of quality more accurately. What is it? Is it the degradation of sound just from putting it to tape? It sounds like they are recorded from a speaker to a mic, like you can hear the reverb of the actual room it was recorded in, hope that makes sense, let me know any theories or absolutes

For me, Ruff Draft is one of Dilla's best, and I always find myself coming back to it. Tracks like "Let's Take It Back" hit me so hard – I swear, I could cry every time he says, "I had a dream about my man's last night..." There’s such a raw, emotional weight there, especially after his passing.

Then there's "Nothing Like This" – where Dilla flips a rock sample, reverses it, and makes it sound like he's floating through a blue sky, completely free of pain. It’s experimental and bold, like he's just letting the music flow without any rules or boundaries. And "Crushin" – I can’t get over how it feels like a Kanye track from 2003, with those playful lyrics and the way he uses censorship as part of the beat. That sound is just wild.

"Won't Do." has one of the most beautiful sound he used, it almost brings me to tears. And of course, "So Far To Go" with Common and D'Angelo – absolute classic. The vibe on that one is unreal.

I'm also a huge fan of his work with Slum Village on Fan-Tas-Tic, and it’s crazy how he manages to bring that same raw energy there. Do you guys have any other recommendations for Dilla’s “chill, experimental, smooth” beats where he’s spitting a verse? I love hearing other rappers on his production, but Dilla himself just had this special touch with his own beats. He understood his sound in a way that felt effortless, like he knew exactly where he belonged in the pocket.

Did yall watch erykah's interview on breakfast club? she spoke on dilla and it was amazing. I miss that dude.

I could've sworn Dilla produced Vivrant Thing, but Wikipedia says that Q-Tip produced it. I could just be wrong tho.
