Thank you, Jay Dee.

J Dilla (aka Jay Dee) is widely regarded as one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all time. His influence runs deep — not just through his own music, but in the sound of countless artists who followed him.

Dilla’s genius lay in his ability to make beats that felt both loose and precise, raw and soulful. His use of samples was unmatched — layering textures, rhythms, and emotion into something unmistakably his. He passed away far too young in 2006, at just 32, after a long battle with lupus. But his legacy? Untouchable. Press play and let it ride.

Edit 1x for D’Angelo. Press play and vibe.

The Soulquarians / D’Angelo
The late ’90s and early 2000s were a golden era for soul music — largely thanks to a groundbreaking collective known as the Soulquarians. With artists like Erykah Badu, J Dilla, Common, Roy Hargrove, and my personal favorite, D’Angelo, this crew helped reshape the sound of hip-hop, soul, and everything in between.

Their collaborations were rich, genre-bending, and timeless. D’Angelo’s Voodoo stands as one of their greatest achievements — moody, masterful, and dripping in groove. If you know, you know. And if you don’t, now’s the perfect time to press play and find out.
