"J.Dilla STILL SHINING" (part 1 of 4) - BKyle

Ойын-сауық

DIrector: Brian "B.Kyle" Atkins / Gifted Filmsinc.com / TheJDillaProject.com / BKyle_
Part 1: Work Ethic Starts In The Basement / What To Listen For in A Dilla Beat / J.Dilla's Range As A Producer. The King of Reinvention
This piece was created for his fans as James "J.Dilla" Yancey a way to reflect on the impact and legacy of our musical icon, and reinforce the understanding of why we hold him in such high regard. This stands as a tribute for J.Dilla, and a gift to fans that already understood his presence in music at the time he passed away in February 2006... and those who continue to seek material about him to rejuvenate their support. I trust that this "J.Dilla: Still Shining" remembrance piece will have you gain greater insight, and a richer appreciation of this musical icon. As fans of music, we suffered the loss of a great asset... but J.Dilla continues to shine. - B.Kyle

    Hell yea. From the time I discovered Dilla in 6th grade - unfortunately only due to his passing in February of that year, through high school having his sh*t on repeat in the car on rides with friends at basically all times, to college years where me and a few friends would pick apart his beats and arrange them with a full band + horns in the university recording studio that we would get time in for free in exchange to playing different parts or working on whatever for other friend’s projects who were recording majors…shit I was just listening to Dilla this morning! And mad people love his music who half the time don’t even know he made the beat! RIP Dilla man…idk if I would even have the love that I do for music if I never came across his catalog.

    My favorite producer ever, one of the biggest reasons as to why I want to make beats. Art is a passion of mine and I'm going to college to be a graphic designer, but if I feel I don't want to do that down the road, I would definitely want to start creating more beats, and Dilla is a big aspiration as to why I would do that! No one can replicate his work, but his beautiful beats are timeless. R.I.P. James Yancey, you were gone too soon.

    B.Kyle, Thank you for this! Checked the full version elsewhere online and it was a well spent 39 minutes and change. Excellently done! For the past year plus I've been thinking that something like this needs to be made to help pay tribute to one of the greatest musical geniuses of our time, J Dilla. This has helped satisfy my need to digest as much Dilla-related content as possible. I appreciate that this is given away for free as I would have gladly paid money for it. Turn It Up! RIP Dilla

    How come nobody knows J Dilla? I mean when I ask in general here in Sweden, not many outside or even inside Hip Hop music do know this cat. He deserves more listeners, because what he put together no one has heard before or after. But I ain't blaming anybody, I bet there's tons of music I haven't even heard of lol
