J Dilla Tribute Recap

R.I.P. DILLA


Phife- A Tribe Called Quest
Ma Dukes ( J Dilla Mother)
Ken Starr

Last night was a beautiful night at Liv Nightclub on U Street. The Dilla tribute was crazy. They ran thru so many Dilla produced classic and some of the DMVs finest came out to help. His mother (Ma Dukes) came out to keep his name alive as well as raise money for Lupus (The disease that kiilled Dilla). Phife from ATCQ was in the build running thru songs that Dilla produced for them. It was simply a beautiful night. Dilla had so many many records that people will be singing until they die. They don't make producers like him anymore. 

With a loaded MPC 3000 in hand and a stack of Vinyl, I know Dilla was in the building last night. RIP J Dilla!

Dilla is overlooked a lot but this event made me see how important his music was.
