J Dilla is a legend. More than a legend, even. Dilla's amazing body of work represents the best in creativity, inspiration and artistry. He's the kind of producer that every producer reveres and every fan can't get enough of. From his work with established acts like The Pharcyde and A Tribe Called Quest, to his greatness with Slum Village, to his instrumental genius and countless classics with the likes of Common, Erykah Badu, etc., the man born James Yancey has one of Hip-Hop's most storied legacies. Years after his death, he's still the gold standard.
