J Dilla - The Shining - LP

James 'J Dilla' Yancey leaves behind an impression on Hip Hop that will last the test of time. A bridge between Hip Hop's underground and mainstream, Dilla's contributions ranged from single handedly defining Detroit Hip Hop as a founding member of Slum Village to providing his production talents to Common, D'Angelo, Busta Rhymes, Erykah Badu, a Tribe Called Quest, the Pharcyde, the Roots, Janet Jackson and Macy Gray. The Shining marked the reunion of J Dilla & BBE, who had released Welcome 2 Detroit, J Dilla's debut album. The Shining serves as showcase of J Dilla's talents which features him not only as a producer, but also as a rapper, singer and musician. Featured guests on this album include Busta Rhymes, Common, Pharoahe Monch, D'Angelo, Madlib, Black Thought, Medaphor aka MED, and Guilty Simpson.
