Let’s start this podacst off with a bang. While I may still be digesting Donuts (pun intended), I’m definately feelin J Dilla’s The Shining immediately upon arrival. I’ve always been a fan of Dilla’s production, since I first time I heard Fantastic Vol. 2 and this album doesn’t disapoint. It actually seems to showcase how he’s come of age as a producer and gotten more comfotable with experimentation (check the cut Jungle Love). Regardsless, this album bangs on many levels.

E=MC2 is the cut that stood out to me. It’s some classic Detroit Dilla bounce.

J Dilla – E=MC2 ft. Common
