everything i wrote is valid. pete himself says in the latest XXL that him and dilla were in the same vein only dilla took it to a higher level. Tip also speaks of Dilla as a genius. as for RZA and em, pleaze. I think YOU'RE the one livin in the past if u think RZA still rocks shit in 2006. He was good while in his prime but even then he never reached Dilla's level. Madlib is the closest and his is an acquired taste.
