Earlier this week, we learned that the late J Dilla's beloved Donuts is getting re-released as a hefty 7-inch boxset January 7 through Stones Throw. There's more tributary news to discuss, though, as the producer's pal and Roots drummer Questlove delivered a Dilla-inspired DJ set earlier this week.
Questlove manned the decks at New York's Boiler Room, and was surrounded by a bunch of head-bobbers as he let loose an arsenal of soul and jazz sample-assisted beats from Dilla's back catalogue. You can stream the full hour-long set down below, as well as watch it in the video at the bottom of the page.
