For Free Album Friday it’s an album put together by Squeek Boogie called Dillmatic. By that title (if you are a hiphop fan) you should be able to guess he takes the beats of Dilla and the rhymes of Nas. Not all the Nas stuff is from Illmatic but it makes a good title. Overall its pretty solid, towards the end I started skipping tracks but certainly worth a download. Before this album I’ve never heard of Squeek Boogie before but he is a producer from Phoenix hit up his links below for more info and download the album here
For Free Album Friday its a beat CD from producer Kylebeats. This came out in 2009 but its a collection of his beats from 2004-2007. I don’t know much about him besides he lives in Dallas and is a huge Dilla fan but there is some niceness on Beats Please so download it here
James Yancy aka Jay Dee aka Dilla was born on this day in 1974 and unfortunately he died on February 10th 2006. But his work lives on and his influence on current producers is huge. Over the next few days ill throw up various Dilla treats. But first ill start with the Thank You Dilla mixes done by J Rocc. These are from the Stones Throw podcast which i recommend highly.
