Mrs. Maureen “Ma Dukes” Yancy confirms above that a new project titled, The Rebirth of Detroit, made up of entirely brand new and previously unreleased material from J. Dilla will be released later this year, and will feature only Detroit artists who had actually worked directly with the legendary producer.
“There’s a misconception that it has something to do with old projects. This is entirely new, fresh ideas, energetic, fresh and gifted. It is titled The Rebirth of Detroit, so no one will get it twisted.”
Can you hear that? That’s the sound of hip-hop heads around the world giggling like excited little girls.
