the cult of dilla, c/d?

Dilla tracks vs dilla tribute tracks

i wasn't on his dick for that stuff, i'm just saying that's the stuff i know and like (and sometimes love), don't really know the underground/instrumental shit that's inspired the cult.

anyone heard the orchestra tribute to dilla album?

dillbussy

I can't tell if that's a custos or real.

no there's really an album out, they performed it in la a half a month ago
dunno what its called

i mean when he died i just barely knew of him for (Loose Joints) and doing (Dinosaur L) and solo stuff, really had no idea he was responsible for all these (Flying Hearts)/(Necessaries) records I knew and liked/loved (..) or whatever. so i'm not hating on the guy and i understand there was a brand/name recognition issue with his work while he was still living, it's just funny how he probably would have had no idea when he passed away that 5-10 years later people would be all (Arthur Russell) this, (Arthur Russell) that.

I've yet to see a Nick Drake changed my life shirt.

n drilla

sorry

why people are on his dick for the shitty Tribe albums, Labcabincalifornia, and the post-Paul De La albums is beyond me. Common? ugh fuck that guy

haa yes like it emerged directly from my heart piece rip dilla

shakey congrats on not liking stuff

Alex, the cult lives WITHIN THE SELF

the self is supposed to, i dunno, flog itself or something for repentence of not being around to know who died after they died or something like that.

I have no idea what you are talking about.

alex, i'm just trying to get all pipecock on you and i'm failing ;_;

most of the dilla stans make their own lil beats at home too - theres def some steve vai style technical aspiration thing going on

What do Arthur Russell stans? Write books about Arthur Russell?

stans do, ahem

this is definitely the wrong place to ask, but what is the etymology of 'stan'? i know what it means, but is it short for something?

The Eminem track.

dido

btw i started this thread with great conflict in my heart because as patrin is right to note "dil cosby / dil withers suite" is not only the best beatkonducta work yet, it's also an amazing listen
^^^^^ this

also i have no conflict in my heart in saying dilla was stone cold classic, and that the cult of dilla has no effect in either direction upon my feelings about this

you're succeeding at being yourself quite well, by which i mean being retarded. there you go, a good pipecockism for you. if you wanna bite my style, LEARN TO DO IT RIGHT FOOOOOOL.

You have a style that people want to bite? No way

jesus

the cult of ilm, c/d?

i think that just about all "tributes" and whatnot to dilla have been pretty weak. those beatconductas are okay, but really they're not essential. i laugh when we get in new tracks at the shop that are all DILLA in title, but sonically they're bullshit.

i don't see what any of this has to do with people giving the man his propers. it's good that people are finally recognizing how great he was. in fact, it was only since he died that i revisited the tribe, pharcyde, and de la albums he was involved with and could appreciate them. that doesn't make EVERYTHING he did good ("electric circus" is a disaster, that one stands out), but it's pretty amazing how good most of what is out there with his name on it is. to the poster hating on Common, that just doesn't make any sense. Common may be something of a joke now, but in the 90's and into the early 00's the guy was the shit. and Dilla's beats on Like Water For Chocolate (which i bought the instrumentals on wax for back in late 00) are completely off the charts.

who wants to bite the pipecock

you'll bust your teeth on that motherfucker

i am not the one

life will do that job for us

This thread got unpleasant quick.

bring back dom and ethan

yeah, about when you started talking shit on me in the third post in it.

i'm going to the mickey avalon thread now so I can relax

the only solution here is if we all suggest bands we can agree on.

I already made my suggestions a long time ago.

Common, has been and always will be, terrible. Saw him on his "Hotel Common" tour, laughably bad. Everything I've heard of his I have actively disliked.

I was under the impression that the one and only answer -- the one artist on which all of us agree -- was Ray Parker Jr. If I'm mistaken, I will never post on this board again.

"Everything I've heard of his I have actively disliked."

He's great in Smokin' Aces.

I'll never forgive him for that Compared to What Coke spot

common has had some joints IMO...esp first couple of albums, but there's even his more hippie stuff that i like

get an idea about hiphop before you comment in the j dilla thread, might that be too much to ask?

Yes. Next question.

haha

yes what is all this hippin and a hoppin the kids are doing these days?

i've never seen one of these shirts in melbourne but i bet they're out there, we can be pretty corny about hip-hop.
