J. Dilla Changed My Life London @ The Scala, 3rd February
Monday 28th January 2013 | Osh
Once again another year passes and we get ready for a night in tribute to the life & work of a true Hip-Hop genius. For years running The Doctor’s Orders have put on an event and promoters and thousands of dedicated fans have celebrated the life and work of the incredible James “J-Dilla” Yancey. In his short 32 years, Jay-Dee or J-Dilla created a new sound of hip hop the ’Dilla’ sound and was an inspiration for all music lovers including DJs, musicians and artists around the world. This night is always a sell out event, the minimum donation is £6 and all proceeds from the night are donated to the J-Dilla Foundation & Lupus UK. Making an impact with his own crew Slum Village from their hometown Detroit, they produced classics such as ‘Fall In Love’ and ‘Let’s’. DJs will include Phat Kat, Shortee Blitz, Mr Thing and many more, and the Spin Doctor himself will be treating us to a special Dilla AV set. With special guests to be confirmed and of course the t-shirt designed exclusively for the event this is sure to be another big year.
