Mass Appeal Premieres Insanely Trippy Video For Dilla Single “The Sickness” Featuring Nas
During his performance at SXSW, Nas premiered an unreleased track he was featured on with J. Dilla over instrumentation made by legendary Stones Throw producer, Madlib. The track, titled “Sickness”, was announced to be releasing off of a new Dilla compilation titled The Diary, which planned to show more of Dilla’s rhyming skills outside of his widely known talents in production. Today, an official video for the Jay Dee’s single released via Mass Appeal. The set of visuals has a triply layout with psychedelic illustrations of both Dilla and Nas and colorful animations of both rapper’s lyrics over moving backgrounds. It’s very weird, but keeps viewers locked in for almost three minutes along with the music itself. J. Dilla’s album “The Diary” is availably exclusively on iTunes.

J Dilla’s Unreleased ‘The Diary’ Album Featuring Nas, Snoop Dogg & More Set For Release (TRACKLIST)
(AllHipHop News) J Dilla fans rejoice. The late production master’s unreleased album The Diary is set to arrive this week. The Detroit legend’s revived company PayJay teamed with Mass Appeal Records to drop the posthumous musical effort. [ALSO READ: Dr. Dre Plays Unreleased J Dilla Song In Latest Episode of ‘The Pharmacy’] The Diary was originally set for release in 2002, but it was shelved by Dilla’s label at the time. The collection allowed the man born James Yancey to use the project to showcase his vocal talents. Madlib, Pete Rock, Hi-Tek, Nottz, House Shoes, Supa Dave West, Bink! and Karriem Riggins provided production for the LP. The Estate of James Yancey’s Creative Director Eothen Alapatt oversaw the completion of The Diary. Alapatt, the long-term general manager of Stones Throw Records, also served as A&R for Dilla’s Donuts and Jaylib’s Champion Sound. The process to assemble The Diary took ten years as two-track mixdowns and multi-track masters found in J Dilla’s archives after his death were added to the album’s final version. The Diary will be released on April 15. Pre-order the album on iTunes.
