[@MsPeaceism]

I adore Dilla forever...he gave me the heads up!!! I am so blessed and I will never stop singing cause he heard something that no one else did!!! Thank-you soooooo much...RIP Dilla

[@PJORmaximus]

J dilla put out so much love through his music and got so much love back... I'm glad such a good person was able to experience that while he was on earth... RIP J. DILLA

[@KBplay]

Common's "The Light" is one of my favorite songs of all time. it sends chill through me everytime i hear it.

[@hafaskater]

i honestly didn't appreciate his music til' i got older. it's amazing how i didn't understand how dope he was back then. i guess i was just a youngsta who didn't know any better. dilla is truely and amazing artist. R.I.P. to one of the best.

[@dominiquejones3805]

Same here and I'm honest about it. I loved his music without knowing it was him behind the boards

[@SleazysWonderland]

how can anyone thumb down this man, this is emotion man

[@krusher181]

RIP J Dilla, genius who continues to inspire

[@journalism101]

RIP J. Dilla. I can't believe how he and Common cooked up "The Light," classic love record.

R.I.P. J Dilla and Nujabes Gone but never forgotten

[@kurosakiichigo2376]

Nujabes and J Dilla 2 of my fav producers. R.I.P.

[@thatsthatdude]

One of the GREATEST hip Hop producers!!

[@motif45505]

I respect ALL of these lists of great Hip-Hop producers and agree mostly, but there's one dude who I believe is SUPER underrated and deserves to be on the list and that's Nottz! Check out his catalog of work and you may be surprised... Peace.

[@blowabs]

I just happened to hit HKTV and did not realize this beat was done by a guy named J Dilla. I first heard this on a mix tape from a Honda dealer of all things. And i thought wow, "how does he do dat??!!!". RIP. Another great - down,,,damn....

[@alonzo108]

r.i.p dilla common is awsome rapper,lyricsiti,and person

[@Trill104]

I've been a Dilla fan since the Pharcyde runnin....I was so young like 9 years old and it was just beautiful I miss Dilla more that MJ he was so active and hip-hop is not the same without Dilla it's like Hip-Hop died for me when he letf...

[@DaFenceBoyz]

@sgberols The song is "The Light" by Common produced by J Dilla. It is on Common's album Like Water for Chocolate, released in 2000.

Dilla Alllll The Wayyyy Rip x

[@adaryanani]

@hafaskater i can second that... the first tune i realised late that he was the man behind the music was "got til its gone" - i rinsed that so much when I was younger, and when i found out it was dilla it gave it a whole different meaning and gave me the chills all over again. and then slowly through more research did i realise all the beats i kept playing over and over were always dilla tunes... there's no other way to say it without being cliche, but quite simply the best who ever did it

[@JAZZY2REALZ]

COMMON N J DILLA IS LOVE

[@elenigmo]

there isn't a debate. technically the only producer fucking with Dilla is Madlib. but it was lovely hearing the humanity in the rhymes for The Light...lol he didn't finish the rhyme

[@dwalk2209]

The best producer of all time...

[@Lanadya]

Like Water For Chocolate was Common's best Album produced by J-Dilla of course

[@jimhack3]

R.I.P. Dilla.

[@Whitwhit313]

Commons right j dilia had a gift..and you dont get that soulful feel in music anymore now...its sad...im very dissapointed in the music today R.I.P J Dilla

[@babyjun347]

come on man that a classic.

[@TheCrackhouse1]

@razilleD @razilleD J Dilla - So far to go (Ft. Common & D'Angelo)

[@woterx]

the ones left that are still around strong are Madlib, dj premier, pete rock, MF Doom, Daedleus, hi-tek, damu the fugmonk, kan kick, oh no, and 9th wonder. my personal favorite rapper is Wildchild from the lootpack! J Dilla and nujabes were both white coats (white coats meaning they mastered the art of something. in this case, they mastered music producing)

[@Woscoe1503]

@HARRYMARIA I feel u and i get what ur saying i never knew who dilla was actually until my music teacher told me about him a few years back but i realized i grew up to his music just never knew it was dilla until now and i gotta say J Dilla changed me life indeed and i dont call it dickridin i call it appreciation one love. :)

[@vik1234567]

Does anyone know the name of the track that's playing, when the magazine with quest love on the cover comes???

[@telj1]

RIP Dilla

[@Certs]

@hafaskater Honestly I dont think a lot of people did. He purposedly let his music speak for itself rather than have his name plastered everywhere. I feel like people dont fully understand how genius he was until they spend the time to get deep into his technique. His beats were nice at first, but then you get into his music deeper, especilally from a producer standpoint, then you're like, "Whoa. Genius at work." RIP Dilla

[@OffTheHizzle]

ty nemesis

[@0ddisee]

@Spaz12isHipAimedFagg what do you mean actually? Jaylib is Madlib and Dilla, so he definitely took part in the beat either way

[@brkjeff]

what's the name of the song/artist for the beat @0:11?

[@Tmathh]

i feel ridiculous for not having him up there!

[@Imran0said]

Dilla, Premo, Dr. Dre, and Madlib. Top 4.

[@WorldsYourss]

Common - So Far to Go

[@OffTheHizzle]

can someone plz tell me, where the beat @ 2:43 is from?

[@Treezeeez]

@pureaggression its called "the red" by jaylib i think

[@dudlliduu]

i've thought about that too, where hip hop would be now if he'd lived. i think he really was onto something huge. imagine God giving him 10 more years or something. shit... easily best producer, i'd even say one of the greatiest musicians

[@ULTIMATEKILZ]

beat at 4:41 Slum Village - Fall In Love

[@mattjons21]

@wordailay "The Red" by Jaylib (J Dilla and Madlib)

[@HieiDaHellSpawn94]

what is the beat called from 0:10-0:22?

[@NAtiVEMEXiCAN661]

The Red - Jaylib

[@DatHowYzer]

dilla, premo, pete rock, flylo, madlib, rza, dre, samiyam, exile, clams.

[@ChesterCopperpot1000]

What's the name of the song in the beginning?

[@freedomland11]

@MidlandKruiskade u missed alchemist and Eric B

[@Tmathh]

@theabovesociety you put 9th over premo? interesting...you like pete rock at all?

[@anthos818]

@boozaaa By no means am I saying the two cats you speak of are legendary greatness but I dont know if anybody is in that class with Dilla to date.

[@SargeKirby]

@ThaHoodNerd No Pete Rock or Madlib?

[@RaheemFlowers]

My favorite Producers would have to be No order: Dr Dre Kanye West RZA J Dilla The Alchemist DJ Green Latern Just Blaze DJ Premier Pete Rock Q-Tip

[@CommercialRapKiller]

R.I.P. To The God Father!

[@garkah]

Marley Marl, Pete Rock, DJ Premier, Madlib, Oh no, Questlove, 9th wonder, Black Milk, Khrysis, M-phazes, Flying Lotus Karriem riggins are some of the producers that should be put alongside Dilla. Anyone who'd put a producer like Timbaland alongside Dilla, definetly needs to be reschooled!! No disrespect to Timbaland because he is a great producer. But putting him in the same catergory as Dilla is like mixing cakes with hamburgers it just dont go!!

[@SkateKolombia]

Whats the song at 3:41?

[@wtfeezybruh]

"I heard that beat, and I thought about a girl I really cared about... at the time... I wasn't even with her". Hell yeah, Common. xD

[@ambo1st]

0:10-0:22 what is this music?

[@DivineZeal]

DILLA DILLA OHNO MADLIB TOP FOUR

[@elenigmo]

@KLiP5z617 Primo has made the same beat for 10 years...with the exception of Devin The Dude - Doobie Ashtray

[@pdoheny132]

what's the song at the beginning before the interview?

[@ElBrillante4]

@ThaHoodNerd no nujabes?

[@Spaz12isHipAimedFagg]

The first beat is actually a Jaylib beat i think

[@SHFT101]

It's Dillabruary !

[@Tmathh]

@SoulBrothaNeeRo havnt herd too much thes one but hes dope... premo dilla and pete rock all day thou

[@brkjeff]

@COMPUTERGRAVIS thanks

[@AfrikanGod1]

Dills Tha Great

[@j2011carter]

@Tmathh For certain bro lol....Madvillainy 2 drops later this year

[@gideonsuitebread]

I love MF Doom ever since KMD and their affiliation with 3rd Base back in the late 80's early 90's. A top tier producer, for sure. But Doom will always be known more for his his heavyweight rhyme writing. Madvillainy is his biggest album, mainly because of Madlib's production. 100% beats, 100% rhymes. though I will admit "One Beer" is a better beat than "No Games"

[@pacmandiez]

who the fuck would dislike this video..?

[@maryseompiba5100]

11 people are trolls.

[@razilleD]

whats the last song?! tell me.

[@ThePhantomKing]

Preemo all the way for me, but Dilla's after preem for me.
