The 7th of February is an important day for hip-hop. In 1974 J Dilla was born in Detroit, United States, whilst on the same day and the same year Nujabes was born in Tokyo, Japan. Who could have known on that day what a great gift was being handed to music lovers across the globe, with hip-hop still in it's infancy, two of it's greatest children had just been born.

Tweet For some time I've been attempting to keep up with a concert newsletter. However, keeping up with this newsletter was easier said than done.

Check, please. DJ Mehdi Faveris-Essadi spun his last tune on the dance floor last week, and music and food geeks everywhere are in mourning. The French-Tunisian hip-hop electro wunderkind was the single most significant and influential French multi-culti instrument of unification since the Treaty of Versailles.
