J Dilla's Donuts is such an amazing album brehs

[milik_19]

Thought I had to bring this album up, having this one on repeat for the last couple of days. Every time I listen this album, I hear something new here and there, its an amazing ride everytime

The way how this guy used all these samples, and made 31 short songs, is so amazing to me. Even more when you realise he made this all from his hospital bed, and died 3 days after the release. He literally put his heart and soul into this project

Thoughts on this great (imo) instrumental album?

I could never get into this album.



Something about Dilla's style is completely foreign to me.

Whats crazy is that i'm the complete opposite with Madlib (the goat). Even when Madlib does Dilla style beats. I fukk with it more than the original.

I hate that it came out just before his death because it made it look like everyone praising it was just jumping on the bandwagon; but it really is a great record.

I need to revisit this album. I never stuck with me like some of his other work.
