J-Dilla - Still shinning!!!

Posted by Trompie

For those that dont know, most producer, music lovers and aspirer of music by the late James "J-Dilla" Yancey, are currently celebrating his life on this day (10/02/2011). To pay tribute, I did joints that are of the same sample, but thing is, I never released them... so to have a taste, I did a remix of Airworks thats from his last release, DONUTS.
