This has nothing to do with him being hoodNot really surprising. A lot of hood nikkas his age and younger wouldn’t know who they are
G Herbo wasn’t no damn hip hop head. He listened to the music that was on BET/radio and played in his hood growing up
It's one thing for internet goofies not knowing who Dilla is, which one of the greatest producers in hip hop history.
But for an actual person in the industry AND being from the Midwest, it is inexcusable.
Dilla and Common worked together and had great chemistry. That's Detroit and Chicago right there. And for white ppl to have to put a Black person up on game about who Dilla is smh.
People can come in here making all the excuses they want. Idgaf

Common is the worse rapper that rap nerds tried to force on usI’m from Detroit and the people i grew up around and hung with we was not listening to slum village and j dilla. I can see the people in the streets of Chicago not listening to common.
This as sad as it may be to some it’s the truth. I’ve had homies look at me like nikka please when I said Volume 2 is one of my all time favorite albums. I’ve seen Dilla around Detroit spots numerous times and there wasn’t ever any fan fair. Oddly enough I’ve never seen him in a spot that would appreciate him. Outside of a small group of a generation or two of Detroit Hip Hop, all the love came from elsewhere and more so after his passing unfortunately.I’m from Detroit and the people i grew up around and hung with we was not listening to slum village and j dilla.
