In the spirit of this wonderful J Dilla month, i had the great opportunity to attend one of the many J Dilla tributes happening out here in the city of Angels. Fellow music aficionado Joolyaah and I were in attendance at Boombox's 5th annual J Dilla Tribute hosted by the Red Bull Music Academy, held at the Grandstar Jazz Club in Chinatown Los Angeles. This years tribute show included sets from the legendary Maseo of De La Soul and Ali Shaheed Muhammed from none other than A Tribe Called Quest. In addition our ears were also blessed with the local talented Boombox LA Djs. Amidst the swarm of bodies by the bar and packed room Joolyaah began frantically screaming, "Guilty Simpson is here, Guilty Simpson is here...!" yet another musical emcee gracing the streets, airwaves, and that night those in attendance with his tantalizing beats.
