DILLA: SUITE FOR MA DUKES!

I am very fortunate to know amazing people throughout the world. In LA, the crew @ Mochilla, who have brought you the amazing KeepInTime drum project and Brazilintime rhythm project. They fuse together cultural roots with modern day hip hop takes on them and in this case, vice versa.

"There was magic brewing on the campus of Cal State Los Angeles ton February 22nd the kind that puts a love spell on everyone who walks into its path. Miguel Atwood-Ferguson and his 40-piece orchestra managed to set the entire Luckman Fine Arts Plaza afloat on Sunday night with Timeless: Suite for Ma Dukes, their gorgeous re-imagining of J Dillas best known works. Surprise guests filtered in throughout the night, including Common, Talib Kweli and Posdnuous from De la Soul. Dillas inspiring mother was a beacon throughout the performance, small in stature but mighty in spirit.

If you listen closely to the music, the possibilities are endless"
