Editorial Reviews

CD Description
With the sheer volume of posthumously released material staking its claim to the musical legacy of late hip-hop producer J Dilla, one can take a cynical view that this is just another symptom of labels cannibalizing an outstanding music talent (in life and in death) for all that they're worth, and sometimes much more. In Dilla's case, well-intentioned memorial assemblages such as THE SHINING (2006) and RUFF DRAFT (2007) were less cohesive musical statements than fleeting sketches by an artist in a hurry to fix every wayward idea before they slipped away from the memory banks. Lovingly assembled by esteemed beatsmith Pete Rock and executive produced byDilla's mother, Maureen "Ma Dukes" Yancey, JAY STAY PAID can in some ways be considered the definitive J Dilla album, being every bit equal in quality to the producer's 2005 swan song, DONUTS. The mostly instrumental album, a third of which features familiar Dilla collaborators such as Black Thought and MF Doom, is a fully-formed collection encompassing everything from his late-`90s beats for the Ummah collective toworks put together during his final days in a hospital bed.

This album is a solid 10/10!!!
Pete rock has done an amazing job of mixing the songs together. They have obviously put alot of time and thought into the sequencing of the tracks and this is what makes the cd extra special. It's not just aload of old beats that have been thrown together willy nilly.

All the mc guest spots work really well (was suprised by lil fame on paper but it works well).. In my opinion this is better than the shining and a must for any progressive hip hop fan.

J Dilla is Detroit's finest.5
there is still something very special about the music coming out of Detroit, a hard but smooth feel to their artists.

J Dilla's made beautiful music, very unique.
