The Roots Presents: Dilla Joints

One of my favorite hip-hop acts (and few that is currently still going) covering one of my favorite producers, J Dilla, as a RIP tribute. It's very calming and although I don't recognize any of the Dilla samples on it, Questlove is unbelievable at applying his style to other works. Check it out in the comments, and see our How I Got Over post, also released and winning a grammy in 2010.

Bullion: Pet Sounds (In the Key of Dee)

Alright, this is just awesome. UK producer Bullion has fused J Dilla's beats with the legendary Pet Sounds (Beach Boys) sunshine pop album. I'm new to the late J. Dilla's work, but this is a killer first experience with some of his material. Get this right away in the comments, its really original.
