J Dilla - The Shining [The Samples]



James Yancey a.k.a. J Dilla was one of the best to do it. You often see it on t-shirts or hear people say "J Dilla Changed My Life". To many, it's not just a catch phrase. His impact on hip hop is huge as evidenced by Metal Lungies' recent Beat Drop (which I was proud to be a part of). This right here is the sample set for The Shining, Dilla's first official posthumous release. I've always wanted to put these originals together ever since I dropped that Sample & Example post last year (July '07). And, well... here it is! Enjoy!

yo ivan, you probably already know this. but i just noticed for j dilla's "think twice" he sings the same verse/words from donald byrd's 'think twice', which is also sampled by a tribe called quest.

just something that i noticed then both think twice songs played randomly on my itunes..
