Try To Control Your Dilla-rection

Donuts…is there anything they can’t do?

NYC’s own DJ Soul just dropped a nice little gem on all you Dilla fanboys: Assorted Donuts is a tribute to the late great producer that mixes some of his Donuts beats with vocals from folks like Biggie, Mos Def, Smokey Robinson, The Roots, Big L and Redman, amongst others. The best part: it’s free.

After you pick up your copy of Ruff Draft (in stores now), stop by Okayplayer to download the full mixtape.
