Finally, the GOOD version, of the Reunion
Fanvid I wanted to make. Reunion was recorded
in 2004 for the Detroit Deli (A Taste of
Detroit) album. It features Dilla on the
first verse, T3 and Elzhi rap about former
member of Slum Village : Baatin.
"A lot of people think that's a Dilla track,
but it was produced by Black Milk, Dilla is
just rapping on it. Basically what happened
was me and [producer] Young RJ went over
Dilla's house, playing joints for him off the
album 'cause we wanted to work with him on
it. We played a couple joints and he picked
to rap on that one. Originally it was
supposed to be me, him, Baatin and Elzhi, but
Baatin at the time wasn't feeling doing
anything Slum Village.
Me and Elzhi already had our verses, then
Dilla put his "rep mo' D than 12 Eminems"
verse down, then Elzhi said, "You know what,
I'ma keep it real. I'ma tell people what
really happened with Baatin cause they lookin
at us like, 'T3 kicked Baatin out.'" I didn't
kick him out, he left the group. Elzhi wanted
to tell the truth and he did it. That's when
he put his "unlawful demons" verse down. He
called Baatin up maybe like a week after he
did it and was still asking him to get on the
song, but Baatin never did.
It was supposed to be four of us but Baatin
was going through his whole struggle. I'm
kind of mad that we never got to make a
reunion LP, 'cause me and Dilla always talked
about doing it. It's kind of upsetting that
we didn't get to close the Slum Village
chapter like that. Now it's at a point like,
where do we go from here?" - T3

| J Dilla - Fuck The Police (Jay Dee) |
 |
James Dewitt Yancey (February 7,
1974--February 10, 2006), better known as J
Dilla, or Jay Dee, was an acclaimed Hip-Hop
producer who emerged from the mid-1990s
underground Hip-Hop scene in Detroit,
Michigan. He began his career as a member of
the group Slum Village, and was also a
driving force in the production trio The
Ummah. Yancey started his career under the
name "Jay Dee" (based on his initials) but
used the name "J Dilla" from 2001 on. Many
critics believe J Dilla's work to have had a
major influence on his peers, and that he
embodied the neo soul sound, playing a
defining yet understated role during the
sub-genre's rise (roughly from the mid-90s to
the early 2000s). J Dilla was often dubbed
"your favorite producer's favorite producer",
and was highly regarded by mainstream artists
and producers such as Common, Kanye West, A
Tribe Called Quest, Just Blaze, Busta Rhymes,
Pharrell Williams,and ?uestlove.
Posthumous Releases and Legacy
Aside from Donuts, Dilla completed or nearly
completed two more full length releases,
during his illness. The first, The Shining,
was released on August 8, 2006 by BBE
Records. Final production of the album was
handled posthumously by Karriem Riggins, whom
Dilla had asked to help with the album.
According to Riggins, The Shining was "75%
completed when Dilla died."
Rest in Beats J Dee On November 27, 2007,
Busta Rhymes and Mick Boogie released
Dillagence, a mixtape of older, and newer
previously unreleased tracks featuring the MC
over J Dilla productions. The compilation was
made free for download from the web.

Jazzy, Hip-hop instrumental. Yes, J flipped

Frank N Dank, Medaphoare aka MED, Madlib,
Loot Pack, Charizma, Slum Village, Stones

| Tony Allen - Asiko (Afrobeat) - J Dilla Samples |
 |
Tony Allen - Asiko
Born August 12, 1940 in Lagos, Nigeria, Tony
is a Nigerian drummer, composer, and
songwriter.
As drummer and musical director of Fela
Anikulapo Kuti's band Africa 70 from 1968 to
1979, Tony Allen was one of the primary
co-founders of the genre of Afrobeat music.
Fela once stated that, "without Tony Allen,
there would be no Afrobeat." He has also been
described by Brian Eno as "perhaps the
greatest drummer who has ever lived."
J Dilla sampled this song for Common's 2nd
track "HEAT" on Like Water Chocolate. No one
can chop it better so leave it alone(this
means you mr. beatmaker). RIP Dilla!
