T3, Illa J, and Young RJ just announced plans to continue without Elzhi in a recent interview with HipHopDX. Fantastic, Volume 3 is a sequel to the crew's 2000 debut album, Fantastic Volume 2 .

From his work with the Soulquarians collective, to Donuts, his instrumental album which dropped three days before his death, Jay Dee aka James Yancey aka J Dilla created a sound that was often imitated, but never duplicated. His genius transcended production, and he will undoubtedly go down as one of Hip-Hop's greatest musicians ever. Dilla had a knack for creating entire beats around obscure samples that [...]

Sad, because it involves 3 late musicians, all who made huge impacts in the music culture. Both Seba Jun, better known as Nujabes, and James Yancey, better known as J Dilla, were both born on this day (the same day, in 1974 to be exact). Rapper Big Pun passed on this day, but to think that a day can mean so much to fans worldwide should not go unnoticed. Take a few moments of silence for these men, and think about how fragile life is. None of these men even made it to their 402s, but they left an impact [...]

![Ma Dukes aka Maureen Yancey talks about the J Dilla Foundation, the importance of the Arts, and new album 'Rebirth of Detroit' [Feature Interview]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4017119_lg.jpg)
Just as J Dilla aka Jay Dee aka James Dewitt Yancey's music had magically appeared into my life, so had my connection with the J Dilla Foundation. It all started with a simple Facebook friend request from Marketing/Brand Manager Diana Boardley. I usually don't go through with random friend requests but this time I took a glance just to see what it was that brought this new person into my life. Upon clicking Diana's profile I noticed her affiliation with the J Dilla foundation and the rest is history. Eccentric: Hello Ma Dukes! Thank you for taking the [...]

Quelle Chris - Shotgun & Sleek Rifle Fat Beats: 2011 There is no denying I'm a sucker for the type of rap Shotgun & Sleek Rifle encompasses. That smoked out unhinged punk-hop grounded on obscure loops and dusty drums that provide more of a pulse than a knock. Murky decapitated funk oozes out of songs, as guitar riffs flail comfortably next to forgotten soul tracks that are looped up with little to no sample chop or mix-down. Inside of this intoxicating mess is Quelle Chris spittin' fly rhymes that [...]

Tweet "Alex, how do you feel about Giant Steps?" "Fuck that shit, everyone's played it, it's 50 years old, it sounds like crap, write a new song, and stop playing that God damn song. I don't care if you can fucking modulate it and change shit up, you can play it in seven, you can play it in nine: it's fucking boring. That's what I think about Giant Steps." This little conversational snippet comes right at the close of BADBADNOTGOOD's [...]
