Can someone explain the cult around Dilla? What were his innovations?

He dead

>>71381816

He was just as loved in the hip-hop community while alive. P4K hipsters and white people only started caring when he died.

>>71381768
NIGGA DEAD!

they are too numerous to list, just look it up

>>71381768
overrated by far. madlib shits on him

>>71381869
Pretty much this, both Dilla and Madlib were the most acclaimed artists on stones throw. Not to mention Dilla's production credits include The Roots, A Tribe Called Quest and the Pharcyde.

Who knows why p4k decided to change donut's rating

>Who knows why p4k decided to change donut's rating

An attempt at appearing to be a reputable source of hip-hop criticism?

I like this beat

listen to it all the way through cuz the beat switches up

>>71381768
Donuts is surely considered his best work. Idk what I think about the backstory of an album becoming the reason it's so good to everybody, but it is rather impressive what he did while in a hospital bed.

>>71381768
He died young. That's basically it. He was not well regarded or important before his death. Now all of a sudden he's Pete Rock.

Revisionist history.

>>71382909
Pete Rock said Dilla was gonna put him out of a job when he heard his stuff. Same thing Clapton said about Hendrix.

>>71383056
Lot's of people say lots of things after someone dies

I've been following hiphop since early 80s.

Don't need anyone to tell me what happened. Saw it first hand.

>Just found out Madlib and DOOM are the same person

Gross.

Most important thing he did was come up with rhythms by jamming live on an MPC.
