“Mozart. Coltrane. Ellington. And J Dilla? Why the underrecognized beatmaker belongs among the legends”

After reading Dan Charnas’ book on J Dilla, I am even more convinced he belongs among the legends. This op-ed in the LA Times briefly explains why. If you’re a fan of J Dilla—or The Roots, or Thundercat, or Kamasi Washington, or Erykah Badu, or...—I highly recommend you read Dilla Time.
