In Dilla's history, at least from my perspective, there was an small window where Dilla changed his beat making sound 180 degrees.

The old beats was tight for a while, some ol cool out shit that you could listen to on a lazy afternoon...but that can only go so far.

And what the fuck is "Wlid" on Ruff Draft? Shit makes no sense. The instrumentals I prefer are q-tip's ride and pharcydes drop, which I just assume Dilla did.

Dude just seemed confused about how to approach his beats after a while.

This post could come from a huge break from listening to hip-hop in the last couple of days, and only listening to jazz and funk.
