Dilla's verse on this song is what introduced me to Slum Village. Immediately went to Tower Records before noon the next day and there was one copy left in the store. I was lucky. Got home, put it in the disc changer, and the rest was history. RIP to the greatest to ever do it. 21 years later...it's still crankin'.
The beats on Common’s Like Water for Chocolate album sent me down a rabbit hole, started reading the credits on a lot of my favorite songs. James Yancey aka J Dilla was the common denominator. Grabbed Fantastic V2 IMMEDIATLY because Thelonius was also on it. I was a Dilla fan and didn’t even know.
Me too! At some point I kinda had stopped listening to rap and sticked only to nu soul and R&B. But when I heard reflection eternal by talib, mos' black on both sides and like water for chocolate (Thelonious, afrodiziac, the light and the 6th sense are still in heavy rotation), I rekindled our relationship. Plus I was lucky to watch Dilla perform a few months before his death🙏🏾
there's snippets of the concert on RUclips. It was in Paris (I'm a French B-girl). It was definitely surreal. Seeing him rapping from a wheelchair and being happy to see us vibing like crazy to his music was very moving. One of my favorite concerts of all times (and I saw Prince many times !)
Common really embodies the humble Chicago dude. You know he is a gentle giant. He doesn't have to act like an asshole, just a genuine cool ass dude. He will always be one of my favorite rappers and the way he carries himself as a person only reinforces his greatness.
I'm biased bc I'm from Atlanta, but Aquemini is on that level for me. But I was also listening to so much Black Star, Reflection Eternal and Common at the time it was just all part of the same vibe. Now I just feel old 😂 lol
@@mrsoshadabaadman "Numbers Look Crooked/Like King Kong Shook It" Crazy Punchline Dilla Had Jokes!!!!😄 That Verse On That Track Is One Of My Favorites By Musician Of ALL TIME!!!! Dilla Just Went There Energy, Flow, Lyrics EVERYTHING!!!! That Displays GREATNESS....
@@fairplayterrific147 Man he was an all rounder. His singing too. Imagine me googling for 2 years who was singing on Fall In Love. I only had an MP3 before there was music on RUclips and such. I was so happy it was actually him singing lol.
I remember Common told a story about "Thelonius" at one of his concerts I attended. He literally paused the show and was telling a story about Dilla and the song "Thelonius". As his story was coming to an end you could hear the bass line from the song start coming in and everybody already knew what he was gonna perform next. That whole concert was like a DIlla tribute. Greatest concert Ive ever been too. Jay Electronica opened for him that night, and he was also going over Dilla beats. It was amazing.
Dilla floats on that beat. He delivers his verses as if they were “off the top”. The beat even more special especially if you’re a crate digger and you know the sample. Who would’ve thought to take that part of that song? Two bars (the most) and he cooks up a banger. RIP Dilla Dawg and George Duke.
@@LENNON-90 I have no idea I’ve only achieved that sound a few times and I did it by using a 3/4 delay and a 48db high pass. It gives it that feel like they are dancing around the rest of the track you know?
Like Water For Chocolate is one of them timeless classic gem albums. I kopped that joint the week it dropped way back in 2000. I was bumping that album all over NYC back then. Common's BEST album, and one of the best albums in music, ever.
@@k.a.n.e8636 You crazy. Resurrection can't hold a candle in any way to Like Water For Chocolate, be it lyrics, beats, song structure, arrangement, etc. you name it. Like Water For Chocolate is the FAR SUPERIOR album.
@@k.a.n.e8636 Unlike you, I actually listened to Common's ENTIRE catalogue. You're just a poser who heard someone else say Resurrection was Common's best album. No one actually believes that.🤣
Common remains one of the most criminally underrated artists of all time. Nobody gives the man his flowers. Lyrics, production choice, discography, flow, voice, features....what else do we need?
Lol uhhhh where the fuck have you been? Common was and is, one of the most respected artist. Your opinion is that he is underrated, but he got his flowers and still gets them by the old heads. Young generation is just not invested in hip-hop how it use to be. Times change and so does music and styles. Google “best hip hop artist of all time” and Common is on that list. Miss me with that “give him his flowers he never received ” shit 😂.
Mannn that dilla verse and hook was flawless on that song. He was decades ahead of his time wit the braggadocio swag rap. He was shining and stunting on his haters every time. I always loved his beats but it’s a tru treasure when you find his verses.
That's a straight up fact. JD no lie can make a beat from scratch, in 20 minutes and it'll be the best shit you've ever heard in ya life. Miss that brother. REST IN POWER.
@@cheerleader0602 that's one of my favorite tracks dilla produced for common😰👌👌. Good to know other people appreciate good tunes. where you from homie?
Yo, the whole time Common was speaking about Thelonious being on Fantastic Vol.2, I'm like what?! I had no idea that track was on there, luckily I have Like Water For Chocolate anyway, but it's 2022 and I'm just finding this out! And yes, Dilla had a Capadonna Winter Warz moment on that one.
The song came together organically the way Slum Village record they’re albums… That’s what made it soo dope. It naturally evolved into the hard joint that it became
I was looping this album as soon as I arrived in college. Never let it go, then cd got scratched up. The bass, drums the Slum Village flow was just on point. Here in Toronto it was flowing well the types of hip hop we were releasing too.
My girlfriend at the time bought Like Water For Chocolate the week it dropped. Not sure exactly why, but I put this track on a mixtape right away. Bumped this joint for a long time before even knowing who was really on it. Still in rotation!
Thelonious might be Dilla's best beat, and one of his best verses! It's a masterpiece all around, just a song that makes you feel good. RIP to the GOAT
“Fantastic Vol. 2” is my favorite album, ever.” I’ve NEVER heard anyone say that. It’s a super dope album, no doubt, but I’ve never heard anyone say that…
I was looking at a hip hop magazine. It had the advertisement of "Like water for 🍫 (2000)" in it. It was originally supposed to come out in 1999. But listening 🎧 to Common tell this story about Jay Dilla's recording and 💭 process to approaching songs particularly doing "Thelonius" I now understand part of the reason why the release date 📅 got pushed back. It came out in March of 2000 instead. Sometimes you have to still fine tune some songs until you get it right! Like I commented on other people's pages that "Like water for 🍫" is one of my favorite Common albums. I hope Common makes more music! He's insanely talented artist. Rip to the musical architect J Dilla!!
Dope Dilla face sticker on my back windshield rollin' around Detroit showing respect like I'm spose to. Dilla will always be Motown's finest! Rest In Beats
It is crazy how we grew up listening to Jay Dee, Baatin, T3 before they got famous. T3 and Baatin knew how to harmonize around Jay Dee's beats. That was the crew.
Water for chocolate and Fantastic are timeless classics Im more of a newer listener like five years in but I bump both all the time omg this is why I love hip hop
Im still finding intricacies that Dilla laced within the production of Fantastic Volume II. Hands down top 3 Dilla works for me...might even be my favorite.
Definitely one of the best albums ever recorded. I bought the bootleg "Its Fantastic" on vinyl. Then bought the CD later that year. Great time in Hip Hop and Midwest history. 💯👊🏾

Thelonius... that's definitely a special song... I got that song and albums when they first dropped, that's a Great Story about how the song was made... Appreciate This... Rest In Power Baatin and Dilla ☮️💜🔥

Thelonius is definitely one of my favorite tracks of all time.
It's now on the eve of 2021, this album is still an absolute time capsule..
Most definitely! 👍..Happy New Years! 1 luv!
Love tou
Absolutely
In heavy rotation bro!
This album is a certified clasic
Damn common speaking with so much respect... he really was so honored to be on that record. Thanks for sharing much love
Thanks Nick, awesome story. Glad you liked it
I mean honestly dead homies.
His whole Roommate at some point
Check out the 3 new Common vids they jut posted
It's sad that white people are the only one's treasuring black American indigenous works as ancient artifacts. Thanks John.
Nothing beats Common & Slum Village rhyming over that Dilla swing.
I'm biased bc I'm from Atlanta, but Aquemini is on that level for me.
But I was also listening to so much Black Star, Reflection Eternal and Common at the time it was just all part of the same vibe.
Now I just feel old 😂 lol
@@ilovemikerogersnow I’m curious as to how Aquemini is on the same level (production wise) as Dilla’s drums on fantastic volumn 2 or 1?
my favorite line from Dilla on Thelonius " You Funny duke, cause really you think you can do me. when you roll a 500 thats really a 320."
facts
"Should've let somebody else hook it/
Numbers look crooked/
Like King Kong shook it...."
CLASSIC
Numbers look crooked,
Like King Kong shook it
should of let somebody else hook it!!! numbers look crooked like king kong shook it!!!!😎😎💯💯💯🎊🎉🤣
I came to the comments JUST for this, pause. 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Like water for chocolate one of the greatest hip hop albums btw. Props to common.
Dilla basslines always off the charts dope
“I stay on your mind like great sex, you ain’t on my mind I’m thinkin bout paychecks” Dilla killed that shit! I always liked when he rapped.
Check out the new Common vids on their channel!
Featuring Dilla, Kanye, Prince etc
The best producer/rapper ever. 💥💥💥
The basslines on Fantastic Vol.2 makes other producers get shook
Yeah i only know what tube compression is because of this song.
Dilla had amazing baselines.
I really like some of his minimalist beats like "things you do to me" and "keep it on"
Like King Kong shook it.

Every time I listen to this majestic album. I find new intricate details.
That's how it usually is with J Dilla on the beats!
Untitled/Fantastic is masterful to zoom in on
Fantastic & for Chocolate are Timesless classics
Dilla's rhymes & flow are EVERY BIT as slick and legendary as his beats. Totally agree on Fantastic V2, too. Favourite hip hop album of all time 🏆
Also could sing a dope hook
