Dilla Fest is coming to Detroit on November 4 with performances by Frank And Dank, Illa J, Dez and headliner Busta Rhymes.

Dilla Fest is hosted by Dilla's mother Ma Dukes and it honors the man who played a pivotal role in the careers of Slum Village, The Pharcyde, The Soulquarians, and many more. Frequent J Dilla collaborators and hometown heroes, Frank N’ Dank will be joined by another local legend, and J Dilla’s younger sibling, Illa J. Having collaborated with J Dilla through much of their respective careers, Frank N’ Dank featuring Illa J are the perfect selections to honor the man at home. Finally, one of Detroit’s most respected DJs and artists will be rounding things out, Dez Andrés.

Needing no introduction, Hip-Hop legend, Busta Rhymes, has been at the top of the rap game since the early 90s. His countless iconic tracks have graced speakers and systems the world over. And, on the occasion of Dilla Fest, unanimously considered one of rap's premiere performers. Dilla Fest in Detroit is produced by MeanRed Productions and Fusicology, two companies that pride themselves as independent woman-led music companies. 

Tickets are available at MeanRed and start at $30. The event takes place at Russell Industrial Center 1600 Clay Ave.
