Its tracks like these that take me back to middle school days where I would sneak out of my house to smoke some fire. Come back lit af and watch adult swim and bumps flying lotus and dilla and all types of hip hop/electronic joints throughout the night. I hope the feeling never goes away and I can always come back to it, as if it were yesterday.
Dilla was some of the first music I listened to of my own choice, nothing like on the radio. He introduced me to hip hop, jazz, rnb, soul and to my truth in this world. I am forever grateful
According to Common, he would wake up, eat breakfast then head to the record store where he would spend hours, come back and make beats like these in probably about ten minutes. J Dilla had it down to science I think, while still making things feel non-programmed.
