Ruff Draft: Dilla's Mix (Blk)

Limited clear with black colored vinyl LP pressing. When Ruff Draft saw it's initial release in 2003, J Dilla possessed production skills on par with anyone in hip-hop - technically and creatively. "At the top of his game," says longtime friend and collaborator, Karriem Riggins. After years of building while modestly deferring to others of both greater and lesser notoriety, Dilla finally completed the first solo endeavor on his own label, entirely on his own terms. This definitive reissue of Ruff Draft takes Dilla's recently discovered mixes of the album - only ever issued on the rare, original vinyl EP - and restores his vision for the project... "straight from the mothafuckin' cassette," as he phrased the sound he was going for on the intro.
