    ❤️ If you don’t already know this - check out the Erykah Badu post “The Healer” - I was amazed to realize it seems like it’s clearly an homage to this song even though it sounds quite different. (and is also a banger, if a bit of a slower paced one) You’ll notice some identical lyrics. 🙂

      Frigging A. Never heard this before, it’s a tight but unquantized beat, late meandering bass, Badu paying respect to Dilla who mastered this style like a theoretical physicist.

      Thank you my friend outta the sea, if ever…please ink me again with these grooves.

        While I am not by any means a connoisseur as you seem to be, I have another couple from EB that really rocked me, I think you’ll like them. Will post later. No knowledge of Dilla, but now I have someone to google.

        Thank you my friend

        And thank you for broadening my horizons in return. ✊

          Yeah I seem, not really though, I just enjoy hiphop as much as you do, *nod.

          Also, you are welcome.
