I was so depressed two years ago and kept trying to get out of Mississippi while making close to nothing. Ended up passing some certifications, finishing college then moved out of my moms house. I kept listening to this whenever I would study or drive home working overnight at a data center. 40 miles there and back at 5am then would wake up at 2pm to repeat the cycle again. I make more money now and I’m healthier but I don’t think I would have done it without Dilla’s music.
the good news is that was probably the most difficult time in your life and you probably won't encounter anything as hard in that exact way in the future
For me it always brings me back down to earth, no matter the situation. At the times where i overthink, when everything seems like its doomed, it pulls me back down and reminds me life doesn't have to be so complicated as i make it out to be. God bless Jay Dee. Peace and love.
You are never alone, when the beat places you in a frequency zone, use your mind to find remedies fantastic, then surf the feeling until the last kick, that's it feel the smile cascade across your sacred space, spill the moment like a lush inability to make it waste, time waits for no one so stay in the moment, claim the joy that you desire to officially own it, waste no more time being stuck in the past, happiness is perpetual all you have to do is ask, to be in the spotlight of the love that's eternal, write a happy narrative daily in your journal, the greatest love shines eternal to heaven and back, love of self is real when you know where you're at, you are here with us, the children of light, united as one eliminating the fight.
When I first heard Nag Champa back in 2000, I was blown away. I KEPT replaying that joint, to the point where Common was getting a hoarse throat over the track, lol.
YESSSSS DUDE.. Live for the FUTURE!!!! It sounds like something a crack head would say but even though we're going to die someday, we should just live day-by-day trying
I remember when Dounts dropped. I was too young to realize what was really going on. We lost a real actual musical genius. Those words get thrown around a lot nowadays but I strongly believe his ear and musical mind was at a genius level. Looking back now, this dude just wanted to make music. Real music. Im just glad we still got these handful of incredible beats left so we can enjoy it while we can. I thank God for Jay Dee Beats sometimes no lie. Nobody else’s music makes me FEEL everytime I hear it. It’s a beautiful thing
Samuel Elizondo I’m sure his vibes where so smooth and natural ahead of the time ...... I seen you got some graff in your profile pick that shit gets me going because graph and basketball is what got me into rap when I was a kid j dilla takes me places to when I was young living in the city in Boston and gives me strength to sypher with any mc that’s steps to a beat love the music ! Wish I even knew the Album donuts I know nothing of it but I could name 100+ j dilla tracks he’s been my man for 10’plus years thanks to RUclips small world incredible production on his quality of music mahalo guys!
Yea Dilla was a just breathtaking on the beats and Mic aswell. Iknow what you mean with the feeling you get. It's like his Beats are gateways to a time in the Past and you see the Moments very vividly. Always beautiful and puts me in a trance 🌴 ☀️🌊
I saw Common in NYC like a week after Dilla died. He dedicated a whole portion of the show to him and did thelonius....Im like who the hell is J dilla???? Man!
J dilla beats make your night smoother while you getting off work, cruising around the block or getting out the store. Dilla legacy will always going and never stop.
This is one of Dilla's most beautiful productions. Not talking most groovy. Not talking most handbanging. Just most beautiful. I could listen to this endlessly.
My best friend just left to the Air Force. I miss her laugh n smile so much. But for some reason this song makes me feel her energy once again and I get a great joy. Thank You J. Dilla 🍩 RIP
Always loved this name for the beautiful song since i lived in Goa (India) for half my childhood... And this just takes me back to when i was 13 with a Mangolassie in my hand sittin on a chair overlooking a paradise like shore...... Sometimes i then listen to "got til its gone" and see the Palm trees in the video... Then i look like the white cat hittin the blunt... Watery eyez and shit. DILLA DO THAT TO YOU...
Listening to J Dilla's beats is a spiritual journey, I get to connect with bits and pieces of me that had disconnected from my core being. Simply Magical!
That’s DOPE, Cool B!! And I really wanted to write your Tag, Doctor! Respect and One Love from a JD III Disciple as well. One who has seen over 50,000 moons.
I'm from the D, still here, when I heard Slum Village's beats I was like "who putting those mad chops down"? He's the best producer to this day by far, yeah there's arguments about Dre and the rest but Dilla takes me to an astronomical plane, something few have yet to achieve, miss you bro, the music lives on. ✌️
Why are you here? For maybe 5 laughs?? The caption says to keep things respectful, shall I repeat that? Have a good day cause I have nothing left, my statement stands
@@davidbarnes3864 I am here to refute your poor comparison and obvious lack of respect for the work of the gods, when you compare it to the work of an eighty-fiver.
Nag champa is flower that is traditionally used as an offering for Indian Gods due to its ability to cleanse the home, purify the air of negative energies, and create an environment conducive to meditation and relaxation. Dilla was a Genius.
My favorite JD instrumental of all time. So cosmic and heavenly. Everytime I hear this, I go some place far and peaceful. This is the time traveler's theme. . .
April 15th 2020 : I just came here to remember why i don't want to give up on that world of soul. We are not machines, we are light and love. I am Fabrice Dayan, words, light and love from Paris to the world.

Lucas Brandão Yooo!!! This is one of my most favorite Dilla cuts!!! I remember the first time I ever heard this 20 years ago,I WAS AMAZED AND BLOWN AWAY!
the intro let's you know the ear of Dilla was like no other...i can hear all the chops...RIP J Dilla...thank you La Fuerza for always putting the sample in front....
Being a 20-somethings i tend to find myself questioning almost every decision I make, no matter how big, no matter how small. But everytime i come back to this beat, i feel like everything in the universe will be okay and whats meant to be will be. Legends truly never die. Long Live Jay Dee🤍🖤🤍
J Dilla, certainly one of the Masters of music, I remember shortly after he passed, I visited James Yancey’s gravesite, and I said a prayer for him at his Tombstone... I’ve never visited someone’s grave like that, and I just sat there thinking about all the contributions Dilla made while he was still in this world with all his music that I love appreciate. I’ll never forget that day I visited J Dilla’s grave, it only made my appreciation and respect and admiration for Dilla grow even more to where I find a connection with Dilla every time I hear his music being played. It reminds me that there are music producers, and then there is J Dilla, who has that visionary ear to hear breaks in a song a certain way no one else can execute or perform at his level. Only producer to me that can come near J Dilla would be Madlib.
That intro was magic man, them sounds coming everywhere you never know when the beat is going to drop or which loop will be playing next, Dilla's ear for this shit was a golden tool
You know the ultimate collaboration would be J-Dilla,Prince on piano,John Coltrane on sax,Jimi Hendrix on his axe,George Duke on synthosizer,Biggie,Phife Dawg, on rap vocals,Areatha Franklin on a singing hook,and to finish off Nujabee adding his touches👍👌😎Yeahhhhh
In 2000, I originally bought Common’s “Like Water For Chocolate” LP solely for the song “The 6th Sense”. I was completely mesmerized when I heard the full album, specifically this song. I had never heard beats and flows like that before. Everything I listened to was very “linear” to a degree prior to this. Although I had heard Jay Dee beats on Tribe’s 4th and 5th album, he had advanced to another level by this point.
Matter of perspective, those of us that grew up in the Midwest that listened to the old J88 and old Jay Dee beats feel most of his newer stuff was cool but cant match the his older stuff.
i also personally listen a lot of his 1995-2001 stuff. he definitely has good stuff later in this life. the whole shining album has insane instrumentals. minus the first track of the album lol@@carmentoffee
He said in an interview that it was one of his fav beats he ever made. I surely know it was mine, hands down! Its a go-to every time life is acting up. We miss ya D. RIB
This JD beat is so DOPE, that I have no comment...there are no words to describe where the sounds take me. I just have to listen and ride it; flow. Respect and Rest In Power, Dilla. See you on the Other Side. One Love.
I’m 26 living at my mom’s house after a failed marriage and some hard years in the military… I’m almost done with my degree and I’m barely making enough to pay my bills let alone think about moving out. But these comments, this song, I know everything will be alright. I just gotta keep going.
Hey I wanna say that I just moved into my dorm at college away from home for the first time and your comment really helped me to realize I’m not alone in the struggle to get some headway in life. It’s really easy for me to get apathetic right now because I’m the first person in my family to truly try to commit to college by moving out and it’s been so hard to just try and be with people when so many of them take college so lightly… my mom and dad worked themselves practically to the bone so that I’d be able to see college at all. Hoping that things will get better once more people move in and I can hopefully find some people I can really resonate with. Right now I feel alone and confused and your comment reminded me that life takes us on many different winding paths but they can still be connected through beautiful music like this… anyways sorry for the super long reply I need to go to bed lol. I wish you all the best in finishing your degree and I hope that things will get better thanks to the work you’ve done. Take care.
@@ducky774 thank you so much for this. I feel similarly relieved to know such introspective and deep feeling people are out there (with excellent music taste) just trying their best the same way I am. Love how strangers can be so uplifting even in the midst of tough times. I pray God sends likeminded, encouraging people your way. Best of luck!
There's something about J Dilla's beats that keep me coming back everyday to find more and more. The raw emotion is translucent. One love James Dewitt Yancey RIP!
Why can't get over Nag Champa, when is it going to get old for me??? I'm right bang smack in the middle of a pandemic and it's just after DOOM has passed😟RIP Villain... What am i doing? I'm listening to Nag Champa instrumentals, with verse that make Common Sense and with as well as without hook!!! Wow talk about timeless... OMG I've been playing it for over 12 years already. RIP 🐐 GOAT James!!!
I am listening to this while cleaning the room I have spent 4 years living in abroad preparing to leave back to my home country for good. A stream of memories.
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! R.I.Beats.
La escuche en mi primer viaje a otra nación, estar tan lejos de casa, lejos de las tierras que me vieron nacer y crecer, es una soledad que jamás podré explicar.
This is my most favorite bit from Dilla and on any song. Period. I would say it perfectly describes the default vibe I be on. I first heard it on Like Water for Chocolate album by Common wgen it first came out. Nag Chamoa stayed on repeat.. And I been rocking with it ever since. RIP Dilla
Dilla is the man... I don't get why so many videos have the NY skyline though when dude was repping Detroit... but it's all good, I'm sure he had love for NYC too.
Bro I’ve been rediscovering hiphop again since 2020 and it’s 2024 and all of a sudden I’m realising after MJ it’s dilla no one has impressed me this much in all my life time musically I can’t even find fault in his production and I’m a massive critic but I have nothing to add or subtract it’s perfect absolute masterpiece 👌 dude is cold 🥶🔴🔵 one of the coldest to ever do it 💯🔵🔴
More of a cigar guy but having a smoke watching the sun go down with that bluish sometimes purple sky with this playing in the background is blissful. This the perfect vibe.
Looking at this photo of Manhattan to this beat, I can't help but think about all the people just getting up out of bed, (or those going to sleep), the millions of people underground in the subways, a New Yorker getting into a yellow cab, or an every-day Manhattanite hustling down the street, and all of those people with the same thoughts about their next move, their next destination.

Have you ever thought about getting into real estate? It's many avenues to take.
Im where you used to be. But the music isnt enough
legendary come up
the good news is that was probably the most difficult time in your life and you probably won't encounter anything as hard in that exact way in

First thing I do in the morning is play dilla beats. No raps no words. Just pure sound and me mapping out how my day will go.
Law of attraction.
I do the same thing in the morning with fela kuti’s water get no enemy but I’m going to add this energy to my routine.
spirituality and hip hop hell yea

I really can't describe what this music does to me. Chills. Knowing there are others out there vibing to Dilla, I feel less alone. Peace and love.

@@joeg6939 yeah, Dilla snapped on Thelonious. He took that one despite Common being on the verse and we all know that Common is no slouch on the mic.
Ayo might be random as hell but we're subscribe to the same shit on RUclips lol. Props!
Ha!
Same here... So Dope!!!
This beat just gives me hope, like there's something worth living for in this sick, cruel world.
Live to spite it!
Your face tells that somewhat
YESSSSS DUDE.. Live for the FUTURE!!!! It sounds like something a crack head would say but even though we're going to die someday, we should just live day-by-day trying

This feels like the moment after a thought and before an action.
nice!
The gestation part, when the thought is about to become action but is still in that magical invisible world of becoming
wtf that is really spot on...
@nate skinner ... AKA a pause. Great interpretation! This does feel like a pause :-)
great description
This is one of Dilla's most beautiful productions. Not talking most groovy. Not talking most handbanging. Just most beautiful. I could listen to this endlessly.
fr this and sunbeams and flowers are by far his most beautiful

Get out of your head and into your gut, my friend.
yo ,this is a timeless classic. the true mark of its value is that it will stir emotions forever.
This beat makes me feel alive again and I haven't felt alive for a very long time. I just wish I could hold onto this moment a little longer.
You can , close your eyes and lock in on the tones. Store it in your SUBCONCIOUS. You can recall it whenever you need. It works.

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! R.I.Beats.
Why did I like this b4 the beat dropped...? Because I had to!!! J-Dilla This is my Favorite beat by him!!!
One of my fav Dilla tracks everrr!! Cool how music can live on forever. ❤️❤️❤️❤️Mannnnn
La escuche en mi primer viaje a otra nación, estar tan lejos de casa, lejos de las tierras que me vieron nacer y crecer, es una soledad que jamás podré explicar.
This will never get old… Long Live Dilla‼️ ♾️💪🏿👑🤲🏿❤
This actually should have been longer this a masterpiece rest easy J
Dilla’s music makes me feel some type of new found courage, I love it🖤 Rest In Peace.
Thank you for this, getting me through working from home during quarantine 🙏👌🏼
This is my most favorite bit from Dilla and on any song. Period. I would say it perfectly describes the default vibe I be on. I first heard it on Like Water for Chocolate album by Common wgen it first came out. Nag Chamoa stayed on repeat.. And I been rocking with it ever since. RIP Dilla
Dilla is the man... I don't get why so many videos have the NY skyline though when dude was repping Detroit... but it's all good, I'm sure he had love for NYC too.
This instrumental is so underrated... That Common album is so smooth you almost skate right past it.
Ssssiiiiiick rip to one of the greatest of Hip Hop
something pure, something nostalgic, something light and so deep on the heart... perfect to meditate
This is what my heart beat is.
💯💯
Deep boss
I love this instrumental. Thank you for the positing of the beat. Plus the New York City Back Ground matches this beat.
I was literally saying to my wife the sublimeness of the picture coupled with the beat.. this is harmony
This is in the pantheon of life altering imstrumentals 🔥🙏🏿👌🏿💥💪🏿👆🏿👌🏿✊🏿👏🏿💎 Rest in power to the god
This one of my favorite
Marvin Gaye wouldve worked with Dilla
Miss them both!
Michael Jackson would have worked with Dilla.
@@domonicjames137 ... why didnt he? :/
@@melagnosis0 Janet Jackson worked with Dilla, but I dont know about Micheal..
@@domonicjames137 J Dilla did an official remix on the HIStory promo single for MJ.
Bro I’ve been rediscovering hiphop again since 2020 and it’s 2024 and all of a sudden I’m realising after MJ it’s dilla no one has impressed me this much in all my life time musically I can’t even find fault in his production and I’m a massive critic but I have nothing to add or subtract it’s perfect absolute masterpiece 👌 dude is cold 🥶🔴🔵 one of the coldest to ever do it 💯🔵🔴
this is truly beautiful
More of a cigar guy but having a smoke watching the sun go down with that bluish sometimes purple sky with this playing in the background is blissful. This the perfect vibe.
Favorite scent, ain’t nothing new under the sun I tell ya
Nag Champa was literally the scent of Melbourne house parties in the 90's haha ❤ First timing hearing this.
Can't tell me this wasn't tuned at 432 Hz. This raises my vibration every time I play it. . .
Common def killed this joint fr fr ..pops up on my pandora at least once a week..
Looking at this photo of Manhattan to this beat, I can't help but think about all the people just getting up out of bed, (or those going to sleep), the millions of people underground in the subways, a New Yorker getting into a yellow cab, or an every-day Manhattanite hustling down the street, and all of those people with the same thoughts about their next move, their next destination.
Dilla is FOREVER. A ONE OF ONE.
