Product Description

After quietly serving as a member of a Tribe Called Quest's production team and scoring hits for Busta Rhymes, de la soul and Pharcyde, Detroit producer Jay Dee became known as a major hip hop prospect by the end of the 90s. The hip-hop community took notice of his no-frills, breakbeat-heavy hip-hop style as he helped craft albums for Common, Q Tip, and the debut for his own group Slum Village. Jay Dee went solo not long after changing his name to J Dilla, he joined the Stones Throw roster in 2003 formed jaylib wit hfellow producer Madlib and released the album CHAMPION SOUND. Althought J Dilla is repsected mainly for his instrumetnal work, he has never crafted an entired albums meatn to be released instrumetnal until now. DONUTS is accessible without being typical or easily defined: it's hip hop without MCs, eelctronic music that at times sounds like a 70s soul mixtape. It's J Dilla doing what he does best, crafting hip hop soul and electronic music into his own sound.

なんで今、この世に居てないの！！って思う...

投稿日：2011/11/10 (木)

なんで今、この世に居てないの！！って思う偉人の方。心底リスペクトしてます。自分の音楽製作のモチベーションになってる天才。音楽を愛している人には、まずこれを勧めますっていう名盤。「この曲がいい！！」ってのではなく、「このアルバムそのものが芸術！！」って感じの名作盤。 dillaの音楽に対する愛の追求の果てにできた1枚やと思ってます。感動です。本当に素晴らしい。このアルバムを語るのが烏滸がましいって感じるほどの名作。天国で今後のblackmusicへの発展を見届けてください。あなたの功績を伝えていくのは我々です。 R.I.P
