In Memory Of: "Baatin"


What a horrible summer thus far. People are passing left and right. Me being a huge, long time J-Dilla fan, i knew exactly who Baatin was. Slum Village is one of the reasons i got into hip hop. "Tainted" will forever be one of the greatest songs i've ever heard. The Detroit R&B/Hip-Hop group will always have an everlasting impact on my life. I'm still at a loss for words. I couldn't belive it when i saw Dwele's Tweet this morning. These past couple of months, we've lost some greats in the industry, i still can't get over the loss of Michael Jackson. But let's celebrate the life and legacy that Baatin, J-Dilla, and The King of Pop have left us. Rest In Peace.
