Description

Part 5 in the Beat Konducta saga is really the first half of a tribute to the late great J.Dilla by Lib, rocking ugly oversized sweaters with partner J.Rocc for the “Dil Cosby Suite.” Of all the fine tributes to Dilla since his passing, one from a kindred spirit like Madlib resonates especially heavy. These aren’t imitation beats – it’s Otis Jackson Jr. and Rocc doing what they do, and you just hear the tribute to the man in the music. Okay… just check it already! You know it’s great. Tracks: “For My Mans,” “The Mystery,” “Dirty Hop,” “Rolled Peach Optimos,” “Sacrifice,” “Floating Soul.” Definitely recommended.
