Amie Street is juiced to bring you
by legendary underground hip-hop
producer
J
Dilla (aka Jay Dee). Behind the scenes for most of his
career, J Dilla was one of the most highly regarded producers in
all of hip-hop. Throughout his years in the biz he worked with many
notable artists including The Pharcyde, De La Soul, Common, Janet
Jackson, Q-Tip, Ahmir "?eustlove" Thompson, D'Angelo, Erykah Badu,
and Talib Kweli among others.
Donuts, his final album
featuring 31 instrumental tracks, was completed while he was in the
hospital and was released on his 32nd birthday -- just three days
before his tragic death. Though a rare blood disease took its toll
on J's health, it never did on his work. Listening to this record
will make it clear why Pharrell Williams (of The Neptunes)
proclaimed J Dilla his favorite producer in the game.
Key Tracks:

His samples are way too short! I couldn’t figure out if I wanted any of them, so I didn’t buy any.
