Leak Preview: Busta Rhymes & J Dilla – Dillagence II

Busta Rhymes’ collaborative project Dillagence II stands as a monumental homage to his enduring creative partnership with the late production genius J Dilla. Building on an unreleased vault of nearly 300 beats entrusted to him prior to Dilla’s passing, Busta expands on the foundation of their seminal 2007 mixtape to deliver a full-length, late-night masterclass in soul-drenched boom-bap. Anchored by hard-hitting singles like “SPAZZZ” and the Lil Wayne-assisted “Talk Ya Shit,” the 19-track album balances ferocious, complex flows with Dilla’s signature off-grid, non-quantized rhythms. A formidable array of guest collaborators joins the effort, led by a long-lost 20-year-old vocal performance from D’Angelo on the sensual highlight “This Woman”. Stellar contributions from Common, Anderson .Paak, Big Sean, Talib Kweli, Ludacris, and Slum Village’s T3 further elevate the project’s multi-generational appeal. Additional production touches and curation from Karriem Riggins and Black Milk seamlessly honor the sonic legacy of the Detroit icon while maintaining modern sonic polish. Framed by touching spoken-word intros and outros from Dilla’s mother, Maureen “Ma Dukes” Yancey, DILLAGENCE II serves as a deeply respectful, high-energy triumph that cements both artists’ legendary standing in hip-hop history.
