The late MC and producer J Dilla would have been 48 years old on February 7th. In honor of his birthday, KEXP’s Larry Mizell Jr. talks with author Dan Charnas about his new book, “Dilla Time: The Life and Afterlife of J Dilla, the Hip-Hop Producer Who Reinvented Rhythm.”
“To slam swing rhythms against straight rhythms simultaneously in ways that put them in a kind of rhythm conflict, this is that Dilla feel,” Charnas says.
