As mentioned below, today on the 7th we celebrate the birthday of one of the greatest of all time - J Dilla. It's widely recognized that Jay Dee was one of a kind with a beat machine, but it has always kind of bugged me the way people put down his microphone skills. He was never superb lyrically, but he always ha mad presence on the mic and sounded perfectly in tune with any beat. These trademarks can be heard on a couple of "new" tracks that was recently discovered in an old warehouse, that's now being put on vinyl. "Dewitt to Do It" can be heard up top and in case you've missed out on the banging "The Throwback" earlier, it's posted below. Both of these songs, along with two additional tracks, can be found on "The Lost Scrolls Vol. 1" which is out now on 10" vinyl, purchase here.
