More Info

The late, great J Dilla is widely regarded as one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all time. An innovator who pushed the genre in new sonic directions, the Detroit artist born James Yancey crafted timeless soundscapes for the likes of Slum Village, A Tribe Called Quest, Common, Erykah Badu, Busta Rhymes, The Roots, and more. Since his 2006 death, Dilla’s mother Maureen “Ma Dukes” Yancey has worked tirelessly to further her son’s legacy, and this effort is evident on the stellar posthumous album Motor City. Inspired by Dilla’s beloved hometown, Motor City is a collection of rare and unreleased Jay Dee instrumentals, hand-selected and sequenced by Ma Dukes.
