This gem comes to us from DJ Eves‘ new mixtape Laced With Gems, which is hosted by Oddisee. Apparently J Dilla was originally supposed to produce a good portion of this album. If you’re wondering how that would have turned out, check out Dilla’s version of the title track “Be”.
On another note, I can’t seem to find DJ Eves‘ mixtape anywhere. The tracklist looks incredible, but maybe the tape’s not out yet. If anyone has a link, hit us up! Check the tracklist….

not bad…but im glad that Ye’s version made final cd
that is one of Ye’s best beats ever
yeh i agree if anyone has the link to dis tracklist please hook us up cuz this track is raw as hell. boy if j dilla was alive today hip hop would be outplayed on every level. i am emotionally shocked he’s gone at such a young age 32. So Young!
To J Dilla R.I.P. a hip hop icon and just very talented with a gift he exposed in so many ways through the music industry. Hip Hop 4 Eva
the intro is the best intro ever.
