13312393, I think it was Running or Tribe that introduced me to Dilla

While I loved his production I never understood how he elevated to God status.

Maybe it’s because hip hop is hard on its producers but Dilla seemed like the producer who crossed over to super hero status.

Had white girls who were new to hip hop asking backpackers if they were up on Dilla.

.....

We drove early to a show to meet Dill and Slum Village. Shared the stage with Slum Village that night but the funny thing was some dude acted like he was Dilla when we showed up and my boy was showing him mad love. Then Elzhi was like “Dilla ain’t here, he isn’t feeling well and didn’t make the trip”

From that day in my boy HATED Dilla and it wasn’t even Dillas fault.
