In the aftermath of his death, Yancey's final messages are manifested on very close inspection of this work. On first listen, the scrap-book style sloppiness ends up defining what was actually laboured on for hours. Despite sourcing from quite an obvious pool of samples (Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, 10CC, ESG), J Dilla still demonstrates an incredible ear in the tiny nuances and subtleties displayed in the compositions. He later produced electronic heavy beat-tapes that were widely circulated and whose stylistic signatures still resonate today.ĭonuts however saw him coming back to some sampling equipment and a stack of vinyl. He was producing for some of hip-hop's A-listers at an early age (Busta Rhymes, Tribe Called Quest, Erykah Badu), and later moved on to live instrumentation and was widely regarded as the driving creative force behind the Soulquarians (which consisted of The Roots, D'Angelo, Erykah Badu, Common and Mos Def to name a few).
Yancey mastered his craft throughout his career though, not just at the end of it. Widely received as one of his best albums, the album is an exercise in the chop, layer, and loop aesthetic that is the requisite of any self-respecting hip-hop producer. Recorded whilst in his hospital bed, heavily medicated and dealing with the pain of a rare blood disease that would eventually take his life - this album is a testament to immense emotive and positive creativity in the face of physical and emotional hardship. It plays part like a DJ mix, part like a hip-hop beat maker at work, its songs starting and stopping unexpectedly, like someone turning the dial on an imaginary radio station.īut it's an unmistakably modern album, and one which perfectly encapsulated the artist's reputation among his peers and fans as a top-rated architect of soulful hip-hop.Donuts was released on February 7th on James Yancey's 32nd birthday. Announced in Fall 2005, the concept of a “rap album without rappers” struck some as minor novelty, but Donuts would prove to transcend the rigid definitions of what a hip-hop album could be.
Completed during a year in which J Dilla spent mostly in a hospital bed at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Donuts would gain particular poignancy when, only three days after it's release, February 10, 2006, the artist passed away, losing his battle with a rare blood disease.
