producer of Janet's "Got Til It's Gone" Pharcyde's "Runnin'" and "Drop"

he did the majority of Common's Like Water for Chocolate, and all of Slum Village's Fantastic Vol. 2

Those are the things you've heard but he was way more prolific than that

to say im crushed would be an understatement

Just something I copied & pasted.... thought i'd add to this post... This comes from

http://stonesthrow.com/jdilla/

After quietly serving as a member of A Tribe Called Quest's production team, the Ummah, and scoring hits for Busta Rhymes, De La Soul and Pharcyde, Detroit producer Jay Dee became known as a major hip-hop prospect by the late 90s. The hip-hop community took notice of his no-frills, breakbeat-heavy hip-hop style as he helped craft albums for Common (Like Water for Chocolate), Q Tip (Amplified), and the debut for his own group Slum Village (Fan-Tas-Tic Vol. 1).

By the time of his major-label debut with Slum Village's Fantastic, Vol. 2 in 2000, Jay Dee was recognized as one of hip-hop's most admired and desired producers. Jay Dee's debut as a solo artist came in 2001 with the single Fuck the Police and the album "Welcome to Detroit" on BBE.

After assuming the name J Dilla, he joined the Stones Throw roster in 2003, forming Jaylib with fellow producer/MC Madlib, and relocated from Detroit to Los Angeles. The duo released the The Red b/w The Official in 2003, followed by the album "Champion Sound" and a tour the following spring.

When Pharrell Williams was asked about his favorite hip-hop producer during a BET interview in 2004 he replied, You may not know his name, but J Dilla, Jay Dee from Detroit. Indeed, the interviewer didn't know J Dilla has eluded the spotlight, preferring the studio to the stage or video. His work is mostly released by independents, for different groups, and under different names, but his core audience and cult status has grown. His pirated beat tapes (instrumentals, raw working material for rappers) have become something of urban legend, as their circulation from hand to hand and over the internet have led to a black market of Dilla beat tape collectors.

Despite contributing two tracks to Common's career-resurrecting "Be" this year, it's been a quiet time for Dilla. So where has he been? A cover story in URB (Mar 2004) made public his recent, sudden struggle with illness, and recently rumors began circulating again about health emergencies and hospitalization. Asked about this in XXL (June 2005), Dilla himself partially confirmed these stories. The rumors were like, Jay Dee is dead and all that, but I was just in the hospital. I was in ICU, with all types of tubes. It was crazy.

Working both from his home studio and while hospitalized from a portable sound system including turntable, samplers, and small boxes of vinyl brought in and out from visitors Dilla continued making music at his usual non-stop pace, circulating beats to MCs, and coming up with the foundation of what would become "Donuts".

Begun simply enough as a production beat tape, "Donuts" evolved into a project as unusual as the environment in which it was created. It's a hip-hop album without MC's. An album of electronic music that at times sounds like a 70s soul mixtape. Its abrupt transitions and numerous interludes might make you think you're rapidly turning the radio dial in some strange city where every station is programmed by a certain Detroit hip-hop producer. "Donuts" is J Dilla doing what he does best crafting hip-hop, soul and electronic music into his own sound.

And a few have asked, What's up with the title? Easy explanation. Dilla likes donuts.

"Best" is arguable. He's my favorite producer/artist of all time (leave me alone about it). I'm awestruck.

dude has indirectely taught me so much about beatmaking and created great memories in the process.

i remember when i first started to make beats, one of the first things i did w/ a drum machine was try to copy the drum pattern to stakes is high to figure it out.

the saddest part is that like alot of great minds, his impact will not be seen by him but in the years to come.

thanks for everything jay. god bless you and your family.

but it was Black Star's "Little Brother" that set me on a better path

Talib's "Stand To The Side"

the more songs I think of, the sadder it makes me.

This hurts a lot worse than I remember feeling when Big left us.

Scratch Magazine owes him a tribute issue.

Looks like I'm making a Dr's appointment for next week to get my kidney checked out. It's been aching on and off for the last few weeks.

And I ain't no emotional dude. I used to snicker at people getting all teary when Luther passed, but now I understand.

The fans of music who have heard this man's music, knows we lost a great spirit and someone who strived to keep his craft up.

Rest in peace...you will be missed.

Slay your idols and become your own.

I didn't know him but I love(d) his music - R.I.P. Dilla

I've been a fan of Jay Dee a.k.a. J. Dilla for a majority of his career. His music has served as an inspiration to me on several different plains; his passion for music, his dedication to being an innovator, his ability to see beyond the "guidelines", and just being someone whom was true to himself artistically. He lived for what he did and made no bones about it.

He worked with several of my favorite artists,including but not limited to,De La Soul,Common,Kweli,and Busta Rhymes. I often found myself in awe of his production,and the technics he used and executed in his production. I wanted so much to one day work with him in some capacity,it was on my music dream "to do" list.
If I feel this at a loss being only a fan and someone who loved his music,I can't even begin to imagine how those who knew him best and had worked closely with him feel.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of Mr. Yancey.

*R.I.P. J. Dilla*

I love and respect your music and may you help orchestrate and produce the soundtrack to the afterlife. For then we will know the music lives on...

I knew he'd been sick for quite some time, but I thought he was pulling through it.
At least he's at peace now.

Our laws forbid us to kill our enemies in public, so our only remedy is to fill our prisons with these criminals.' In the article she went on recommending that because of the cheaper costs the Muslim criminals should be sent to prisons in Russia.--Danish

Legendary producer Jay Dee of late '90's Detroit rap trio Slum Village has just passed.
Jay-Dee has produced such classics as "The Light" by Common, "Stakes is High" by De La Soul, Woo Hahh (remix) by Busta Rhymes feat. ODB and countless others.
He has also produced originals and remixes over the last 12 years for artists such as D' Angelo, Janet jackson, The Pharcyde, a Tribe Called Quest and many many others.
Jay Dee recently released an all instrumental album titled "Donuts" on indie hip-hop label Stones Throw.
Jay Dee passed around 8:00 this morning at his home in California of a bone marrow disease. James (J-Dilla) Yancey will forever be remembered as one of the greatest producers in Hip-Hop.
We'd like to send our condolences to Jay Dee's family, Rest In Peace homie.

With all those great producers in there he was the last one in that book
The respect I have for this man and his music is....cant put it into words
He is the reason I even thought about making beats for a hobby
Im sitting here about to shed tears as im typing
You will be missed man...now hopefully you will get the respect and praise you deserved while you were still alive

Rap Producer J-Dilla Dies; Kidney Failure Suspected
By Nolan Strong
Date: 2/10/2006 6:14 pm



Hip-Hop producer J-Dilla passed away today (Feb. 10) due to an unspecified ailment. Early reports suggest he succumbed to kidney failure, a medical problem which arose last year.

J-Dilla, born James Yancy, was a member of Slum Village and worked with various Hip-Hop artists including Kanye West, Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest and Common's Grammy-nominated album, BE.

In 2005, rumors spread that the rapper/producer had died suddenly. Those rumors were debunked by J-Dilla's label, Stones Throw, but verified the producer did spend considerable time in the hospital. Stones Throw wasnt at liberty to confirm the death of the rapper, but Slum Village group member T-3 confirmed the unfortunate event on his MySpace web page.

Im f**ked up, my n***a just passed away, T3 posted on the website. Friends and fans posted their condolences on T3s site.

One poster said, Yo 3, hold ya head up man. I know how it is to lose someone you consider blood not just in the game, but also in just life period. I didn't even know DILLA personally, but he influenced me as producer and changed my whole life and aspect as a musician. Duke, keep your head up! His life was a blessing to many including myself. You, Elzhi, and Batin are in my prayers. We love you Dilla

In a 2004 interview with Urb magazine, J-Dilla disclosed that he had kidney problems as a result of malnutrition.

"What happened was that the doctor told me that I'd ruptured my kidney from being too busy and being stressed out and not eating right," J-Dilla told Urb. "He told me that if I'd waited another day, I might not have made it."

"Sometimes that fixation can be a good thing and sometimes it can be bad. There'd be days when I wouldn't eat at all because I'd be in the basement working all day," said Jay Dee. "This is definitely my second chance, my wakeup call. I still love the music, but I wouldn't put it first in my life. It's family first - and then everything else."

Representatives for Stones Throw Records confirmed hearing of the death, but could not offer a confirmation.

After being the in-house producer for Slum Village, J-Dilla left the group after their first national album, Fantastic Vol. 2., which was released on the Barak label.

The rapper debuted with his solo offering, Welcome To Detroit on BBE.

After joining Stones Throw in 2003, he formed the critically acclaimed group Jaylib with producer/rapper Madlib and released the album Champion Sound.

The rapper recorded the foundation for the 45-mintue instrumental album Donuts while hospitalized and in his home studio. Donuts hits stores on Feb. 7 on Stones Throw.

According to Stones Throw's website, the producer was finishing a tour, which included appearances in Melbourne, Australia tomorrow as well as dates in Montreal, Canada and San Francisco.

i mean those who knowme-knowme know how much i loved this man's talent...even went as far as changing my okp login as a tribute to him.

to think the last time i seen him rock live was when we brought all y'all to Detroit for the '04 RE...i later heard he loved the energy we all were givin him from the front row...just one of the many reasons why that was my favorite okp experience ever.

thank you dilla...rest in peace.

Tragedy indeed. Shocking without a doubt.




Thank you, Dilla. Thank you for everything you gave to Hip Hop and to Hip Hop heads like myself. I hope your family and friends can find a way to get through this.

And my Rover ain't the hottest Rover you ever seen
That ain't a TV screen
It ain't sitting on eighteens dog
I aint gaining no green and my chain don't swing uh
I ain't doin my thing
I ain't doin a thing
I ain't got none of that dough with none of them cars
I ain't fucked none of them hoes in none of them bars
I don't smoke weed
I ain't use to mess with this streets
I ain't from the D
No I wasn't blessed with the beats
I don't be at the spot swinging my chain like this
Swinging my thing til these motherfuckers bang my shit
I don't sip 'Mo
I ain't never popped Cris'
This Rollie just don't look right sitting on my wrist huh?
Uh Uh wasn't me
Dip the Sean John
Sip the cham' Don
Shit you want some
I don't hold heat
Naw I ain't never caught a case
I don't know what titles to trace
I ain't as tight as they say
I don't ball out with my click at all
But I do show niggas how to spit this bar
Flow make the hoes put the dick to jaw
S-V beeyatch, What the fuck you thought?

8th grade, extra points against these Mexican kids we played heated games against at the Catholic school with the title cut from Stakes is High bumpin in the background...

High school smoking a blunt in my car with this dude I had just met freestyling up at the park, threw on a Camp Lo remix and he's like "sounds like a Dilla beat" and becoming instant friends...

Freshman year throwing on "to fall in love" and dumbass 18 year old girls thinking it was some pimp song when it was really about being pimped by the music industry...

Sitting through a bunch of boring ass songs at every frat party until "The Light" came on and finding a dip to take to the floor...

This guy was on that level, I mean I think people will be talking about him down the line the way they talk about Pete Rock. I was thinking about going to that listening jawn yesterday but got an early ride back to the Fifth. Oh well, probably would have made this harder to take. Really a shame, does anyone know what was wrong with his kidneys exactly?

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Quotes ?uesto comparing his musical genius to Bird (not Larry Bird, dumbass)

The article also states that the problem he had in 04 was a ruptured kidney, basically from neglect due to overworking. The man is like a hip-hop Jesus!

Nah, but seriously, as someone who has kidney problems, I will say that they are no joke; TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES! Even though most of us here are stoners who spend 2 hours a day (being kind) sitting in front of a computer, I know a lotta people here are like many Americans and work really hard. Don't neglect your body in the process is one thing to learn from this; your passion can't endure without your health.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

Hip-hop producer Jay Dee dead at 32

BY KELLEY L. CARTER
FREE PRESS MUSIC WRITER

February 10, 2006

Hip-hop MC and producer Jay Dee (also known as J Dilla), a founding member of the Detroit rap outfit Slum Village, died Friday morning of kidney failure at his home in Los Angeles, officials at his record label said Friday evening.

Born James Yancey, he was a nationally influential producer and a champion of Detroits urban music scene. When hip-hop was largely being dominated by the East and West coasts, he put a distinct Detroit sound on many national acts.

He celebrated his 32nd birthday Tuesday with a new album release, Donuts.

Jay Dee was the man with the beats, said Mark Hicks, who has been on the Detroit hip-hop scene since the early 1990s and is a former manager of the group D12. Hicks got the word that Jay Dee died from Detroit rapper Proof, who sent him a message via his Blackberry.

I remember when he was selling beats back in 95, 96 for like 100 or 200 bucks, Hicks said. Beats are the instrumental tracks that form the backbone of hip-hop music.

Everybody went to him. He was selective. Even back then, you could see him being a producer in the long run just on how he made the music He took the artists and said, This is how you should lyrically say this. He was a prodigy. If you saw him in the studio, it was like he was the man.

Guided by an encyclopedic ear and a jazz musicians touch, he molded a signature style that blended hip-hop street bounce with a progressive flair. Live instruments were digitally processed into strange new tones, and vintage soul samples mixed with obscure rock records, with his own warm synthesizer lines layered on top.

He invented the sound of Detroit hip-hop, said Waverly Alford, the Detroit rapper known as King Gordy. He was Detroit hip-hop.

Jay Dee worked with artists like A Tribe Called Quest, Common, Erykah Badu, DAngelo and Janet Jackson. Even so, he retained a distinct underground attitude.

He recorded in Detroit, Los Angeles and New York.

In a statement, Peter Adarkwah, founder of BBE Records, said he was deeply saddened to learn of his death. Jay was one of my favorite hip-hop producers of all time. His passion for music was a rare thing amongst people in the music industry. His music and presence will be sorely missed for many years to come.

BBE was to release Jay Dees The Shining a follow-up to 2001s Welcome To Detroit in June of this year.

Its a hell of a loss, said Wayne Washington, who raps under the name Wayneeack X. He was talented with a capital T. His sound was hard, but there was feeling behind it. It had your head knocking, but it made you think too.

Jay Dee rarely gave interviews, preferring to stay out of the spotlight. The music community knew, however, that he had health problems. Last year in an interview with the hip-hop magazine XXL, he denied reports that he had been in a coma, but said he spent two months in a hospitals ICU with all types of tubes.

He told the magazine, I went overseas for two weeks and was eating all this crazy ... food. As soon as I got back, I had the flu or something, and I had to check myself into the hospital. He said the doctors discovered that, I had a ruptured kidney and was malnourished from not eating the right kind of food. It was real simple, but it ended with me being in the hospital.

Always the producer, he had a friend bring him a sound system and some vinyl so he could make beats in the hospital.

Denaun Porter, a sought-after producer in his own right, has said that Jay Dee influenced him to pursue his career. Like others who would go on to become members of Detroits hip-hop elite, Porter was hanging out in the mid-1990s at the Hip Hop Shop. The clothing store on Detroits west side hosted open mic shows and became an epicenter of the citys emerging hip-hop scene.

Porter said it wasnt until 1996 that he got serious about making music for a living. Thats when he saw Jay Dee come to the shop in a money green Jaguar. I never knew anybody that wasnt a drug dealer drive a car like that, Porter said. I liked that life a little more.

Jay Dee Dees musical production came from humble beginnings. He started humbly, making beats on a tape deck. In 1992, Amp Fiddler taught him how to work an MPC-60, an electronic drum machine commonly used in R&B and hip-hop music.

Around 1988, Jay Dee formed Slum Village with Baatin and T3, friends from Pershing High School. Even though he left the group after their first national album, (Fantastic Vol. 2, released in 2000), they remained friends and he even produced later tracks for Slum Village.

The group now consists of rappers Elzhi and T3. Both are out of the country, and couldnt immediately be reached for comment.

"Slum Village, man, they were doing their thing, said Terry Scott of Tonyas Music, a mom-and-pop shop on Detroits east side. He was a pretty hot producer here in Detroit, the first big thing to come out of Detroit as far as producers.

He was very young. I met him a couple of times. He came in the shop. For a brother like that to die at a young age, thats sad. This is a loss to Detroit.

Brian (B.Kyle) Atkins, a longtime documentarian of the hip-hop group the Roots, reported on the Stones Throw Records Web site that a memorial service will be Tuesday in Los Angeles. A Detroit service may be scheduled later.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

"textures and textures and textures and textures. movement and colors. ("Donuts") really demonstrates the artistic achievement hip hop can be.

"this is gonna sound preachy cause its black history month and what not but on the real, dilla is one of our genius's. im extending my claim into the territory of theoretical anaylsis of modern black music. ok. point. part of hip hop is sampling whether you disagree or not. point? well how can an artist use his tool to really change the music they are sampling. how do you attack the situation? what if that vocal part is actually fading out and you need to pull it out of the noise floor for a decent signal? if cats arent going to run back to acoustic instruments then really why shouldnt this music be praised?

"no im not dick riding. im observing the techniques appllied to 'commercial' hip hop and concluding that they are not doing the same problem solving dilla is doing on "donuts." why? partly because its unreasonable for them to so. in the system they are working in the time/economic theorem doesnt support that sort of problem solving. they view themselves as the solution(i got quick, functional music). that thinking is black economics demonstrated through art. however, what im saying is that, as a black culture, if we are going to say fuck it to traditional ideas of musicianship (acoustical instruments), then we need to recognize dilla for the skill level he has attainted."

I couldn't even know how to respond let alone respond to the news...I'm just getting in from work et al. I couldn't believe it when my cousin told me, I thought it was like the rumors but reading it there like..."wow" I'm just glad I got a chance to appreciate and listen to the man's music before he left us.

246. "Swipe from Detroit Free Press"

http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060211/ENT04/602110371/1039/ENT
BY KELLEY L. CARTER


FREE PRESS MUSIC WRITER

Jay Dee
Hip-hop MC and producer Jay Dee (also known as J Dilla), a founding member of the Detroit rap outfit Slum Village, died Friday morning of kidney failure at his home in Los Angeles, officials at his record label said Friday evening.

Born James Yancey, he was a nationally influential producer and a champion of Detroit's urban music scene. When hip-hop was largely being dominated by the East and West coasts, he put a distinct Detroit sound on many national acts.

He celebrated his 32nd birthday Tuesday with a new album release, "Donuts."

"Jay Dee was the man with the beats," said Mark Hicks, who has been on the Detroit hip-hop scene since the early 1990s and is a former manager of the group D12.

"I remember when he was selling beats back in '95, '96 for like 100 or 200 bucks," Hicks said. Beats are the instrumental tracks that form the backbone of hip-hop music.

"Everybody went to him. He was selective. Even back then, you could see him being a producer in the long run just on how he made the music. He took the artists and said, 'This is how you should lyrically say this.' He was a prodigy."

Guided by an encyclopedic ear and a jazz musician's touch, he molded a signature style that blended hip-hop street bounce with a progressive flair. Live instruments were digitally processed into strange new tones, and vintage soul samples mixed with obscure rock records, with his own warm synthesizer lines layered on top.

"He invented the sound of Detroit hip-hop," said Waverly Alford, the Detroit rapper known as King Gordy. "He was Detroit hip-hop."

Jay Dee worked with artists like A Tribe Called Quest, Common, Erykah Badu, D'Angelo and Janet Jackson. Even so, he retained an underground attitude. He recorded in Detroit, Los Angeles and New York.

The British label BBE records was to release Jay Dee's "The Shining," a follow-up to 2001's "Welcome To Detroit," in June.

"It's a hell of a loss," said Wayne Washington, who raps under the name Wayneeack X. "He was talented with a capital T. His sound was hard, but there was feeling behind it. It had your head knocking, but it made you think, too."

Jay Dee rarely gave interviews, preferring to stay out of the spotlight. The music community knew, however, that he had health problems. Last year in an interview with the hip-hop magazine XXL, he denied reports that he had been in a coma but said he spent two months in a hospital's ICU "with all types of tubes."

He said the doctors discovered that, "I had a ruptured kidney and was malnourished from not eating the right kind of food. It was real simple, but it ended with me being in the hospital."

Around 1988, Jay Dee formed Slum Village with Baatin and T3, friends from Pershing High School. Even though he left the group after its first national album, ("Fantastic Vol. 2," released in 2000), they remained friends, and he even produced later tracks for Slum Village.

Brian (B.Kyle) Atkins, a longtime documentarian of the hip-hop group the Roots, reported on the Stones Throw Records Web site that a memorial service will be Tuesday in Los Angeles. A Detroit service may be scheduled later.

I'm an atheist and don't believe in a world outside this one, but it feels nice to picture him making beats in the afterlife as he tries to find some Ghetto Heaven.

dilla was a genius
this man made 98% of the music that i truly enjoy.

this man made music inna whole 'nother dimension than the rest...

i don't picture a "conventional" heaven for dilla. no halos, no wings.

i hope he's traveling the cosmos, making music in the galaxies that his music took my mind to.

I may not have been as enthusiastic a fan as some on OKP certainly are. Yet the man who crafted the heart of "Like Water for Chocolate", a resurgent, second-"Resurrection" so to speak, deserves lasting honors.

James 'Jay Dee' Yancey: 1974-2006

Slum Village founder, producer dies at 32

His influence was felt not only in Detroit, but around the world

J ay Dee, a founding member of Detroit rap crew Slum Village and a key figure in Detroit's hip-hop scene, died Friday at his home in Los Angeles. No cause of death has been released, but Dee -- real name James Yancey -- had battled kidney problems in recent years. He turned 32 on Tuesday.

"The best producer to ever grace this city passed today," said Byron "Guilty" Simpson, a Detroit rapper and close friend of Dee.

Simpson described Dee (who also went by the artist name J. Dilla) as a workaholic and a perfectionist, and said his influence was felt not only in Detroit but around the world.

Early in his career, Jay Dee produced tracks for A Tribe Called Quest, Busta Rhymes, De La Soul and the Pharcyde.

He formed Slum Village with fellow MCs Baatin and T3, classmates of his from Detroit's Pershing High School. The album "Fantastic, Vol. 2," which was released in 2000, was praised as an underground hip-hop classic, but Dee was barely featured on the group's "Trinity (Past, Present and Future)." He left the group after the album's 2002 release.

Members of Slum Village are touring overseas and were unavailable for comment.

Dee was admired by true hip-hop heads; super producer and artist Pharrell Williams told BET in 2004 that Dilla was one of his favorite producers.

Dee contributed two tracks to Common's acclaimed "Be" last year. Dee's instrumental album "Donuts" -- recorded at his home studio and from his hospital bed -- was released Tuesday by Stones Throw Records.

Dee's kidney problems were partially the result of malnourishment from touring overseas. He was hospitalized last year and performed several shows from his wheelchair.

Dee told XXL Magazine in June, "The rumors were like, 'Jay Dee is dead' and all that, but I was just in the hospital. I was in ICU with all types of tubes. It was crazy."

His role in the city's rap scene is not to be underestimated.

"(Eminem) is the face of Detroit hip-hop, but Jay Dee, he was like the spine," said Detroit rapper Paradime.

Salam Wreck, a DJ for D12 and Obie Trice, called Dee "ahead of his time." "Kanye (West), A Tribe Called Quest, they're all kids of his," he said.

my boy called me on friday to tell me of this but since he had only heard it on the radio I was holding out hope til I got back in town. I'm sure I'm overstating it, but rap is almost dead to me right now. Who else is going to make music I want to hear.

Wazzup Fam.

Just want to spread the word. Read the BLOG on the myspace page. I am spearheading a campaign to raise money for Lupus research in memory of Dilla. I've already dedicated percentages of my album sales since last year to lupus research - now with the recent passing of Dilla - I'm taking it up a bunch of notches.

Read the BLOG on the myspace page. www.myspace.com/mdwestmusic

PLEASE SUPPORT SO WE CAN INCREASE THE AWARENESS OF THIS DEVASTATING DISEASE!

In response to Reply # 0


          

to wrap my arms around this. I didn't find out until Sunday night as I was driving home. Sunday up until that point had been one of the best days for me so far this year. Hearing that news hurt so much. My believe in God is the only thing that puts this in perspective. Like everybody else, this dude touched me on so many different levels with his music. He was the prototype...the only person I knew of that could combine the street/soul/"out there" elements into one package. He not only did that, but did it at a level that was genius. When I would hear a new joint from him, it always felt like "wow, this is for me...this is exactly what I want to hear". The fact that he dug the same "weird" music that I was into (stereolab, etc.)...He and Common working together was basically heaven for me...my favorite mc and favorite producer making amazing music. I thank God he was able to create Love Is and It's Your World...Love Is got me through a crazy situation that happened on my wedding day. This dude's music pretty much defined my high school/college/young adulthood years. Now at 27, I'm sad that I won't be able to continue growing up with new music. I'm thankful that he left behind so much and the music, being so good, always will demand repeated listens. I thank God for his life...he truly was my musical hero and he will be missed.
