@DESTROY WHITE SUPREMACY BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY Yeah no prob! The sample itself is slowed down a lil bit so it does sound like GSH, but it’s actually Roy Ayers

One of Dilla's greatest beats....He outdid what Pete did to this Roy ayers track. Pete just looped it up an open part but dilla took some chops and just flipped it. Genius

There’s a video of Questlove himself talking about how amazed he was watching Dilla chopping up beats, which is why I love so much that he’s doing the vocal sample live here

Questlove is the perfect drummer for J Dilla! On Rick Rubin’s podcast he talks about how he landed the drums job on Voodoo for D’Angelo because he was able to do the “sloppy” style that Dilla was famous for.

@@unclegardener Hahaha I used to feel just like that when I watched Stranger Things and Guardians of The Galaxy “born in the wrong generation” if you will. But then I found out that society wasn’t really different at all especially with riots and everything, the internet just made the issues more apparent. Trust that there are a lot of people like you who are into that real shit and you’ll get to meet them once your in/out of college. I remember needing that advice as a kid cause it was hard to keep moving. “Where you at, I was and where you been I left” -Mos Def Just hold on and you’ll find that you’re just where you need to be.

I know I've heard that same sample on a Pete Rock skit for "The Main Ingredient". This is a dope song and Mos & Talib continue to impress me with their thoughtfulness into hip-hop music. This song is so relevant today. Us bigger brothers gotta talk to the little brothers about being something better than what's glorified and personified. It's COOL to just be you and not what you see on tv. Young cat wanna be a rapper cause everybody else doing what they pass for rapping nowadays but he can't read too good, spell, or write a check, or cook for himself, wash his own clothes. We gotta teach the youth life skills and teach them how to be men in a society that calls them animals and savages. Tell 'em to stop murdering each other over silly shit. I made it out the statistics but these kids from 15 to 25 it's like they got death looming over their heads...something gotta change.
