Read the full article here and what other artists had top say here
“ALL Dilla is killa. – it’s just FULL production from top to bottom, silky smooth but with a nice fat rough edge – it goes sideways… Fave track (out of 1000s I guess?) has to be Pharcyde Runnin’ – (Labcabincalifornia, a true classic!). AMAZING, IN FACT LISTENING (TO IT) NOW!!!!” – Chris of Zero dB
“He’s the Hendrix of the sampler generation. We’ll always wonder what he would’ve done next, but there’s a legacy there that’ll live longer than any genre, trend or individual. We send love to his memory and family, thanks for providing a major part of the soundtrack to our lives and a source of inspiration to all.” – Stonephace
“Dilla really inspired me to try and be inventive with sampling. The way he would flip a beat or sample would make you think it about it in a completely different way – even if it was something well-known and well-used.” – Lance Ferguson of Lanu/The Bamboos
