Common Recalls Kanye West & J Dilla Mother’s Day Meetup: ‘Dilla Had a Lot of Love for Ye’
Dilla even hooked Ye up with some of his signature drums to use in the future, according to Common.
Common pulled up to Hot 97 on Wednesday (Jan. 24) and recalled a time in the early 2000s when he and Dilla lived together, and Kanye came through to their crib one Mother’s Day, and the Detroit native gave West some of his signature drums. Hot 97 co-host Peter Rosenberg briefly interjected to make sure he heard the “Faithful” rapper right when it came to Kanye and the Slum Village member hanging out together in Los Angeles. Kanye has previously reflected on meeting J Dilla in an unearthed 2013 interview from part of the Stones Throw documentary Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton and compared him to Quincy Jones.
