    1. Want to get out of his shadow? How about changing your name from ILLA J to something else? Or not getting on beats that sound like they were made by him? Hmm…

      1. hey, how bout u shut up and read the comment above! Wtv name he’d go by, he’ll always be in his bro’s shadow because thats what people do, they compare! Specially when you are tryna pave ur way in the same industry and ur bro is Dilla. Oh one more thing, errybody tryna sound like Dilla, tha man changed tha muthafucking game. I bet if ur a producer or were to be one ud be trynna sound like him! I bet Dilla is looking down and is super proud of his bro!

    2. J Dilla’s shadow spreads over most mordern beatmakers, soul singers andproducers . His feel and approach to making music has changed the game. It must be even more difficult for Illa J, to step out beyond his brothers epic cataloge but he does it amazingly on this new MtL made joint!!!. We are pleased to welcome Illa J tomorow at Jazz & Dilla -@honey Martin.mtl to honour his brothers music and all the light that lies beyond his shadow.
