Yancey Boys are All Good

Mmmm….Mmmm….Mmmm is what I have to say about Jay Dilla’s little brother Illa Jay (John Yancey). He continues with the lyrical hotness!!!! It’s a little eerie how his voice sounds so much like his! The beats on the Yancey Boys CD were produced by Jay Dilla over 10 years ago just for Illa J. It was like Dilla knew his fate way before any sign was apparent. It seems like he takes portions from an Isaac Hayes joint and chops it so that it takes on an identity of its own. He disguises it so well, that’s why he was such a genius!!! Needless to say, I’m feeelin this one!!! The CD is called Yancey Boys. Peep at this joint called “All Good” and let me know how y’all vibing to this one!!!!
“All Good”

Yes yes yes Denise….its good to see you back on the blog…welcome back.
Jay Dilla was a monster before his untimely passing. This is his little brother Illa Jay. I’m loving this album too.

Thanks for the “welcome home’ reception, luv it…Kid is off to college (another educated black male on the way to change this earth!!!!!!) so my time is now my time. I’m putting my interests and everything I love back into my desire to listening to good music. I think it’s a part of my religion, cuz I’m pretty lost without it… Buy these songs off your page right? Lemme know, I want to download a few to add to my shuffle for my cycling group….
