Rest Peacefully, Beverly Dewitt Yancey.


Something I need to acknowledge before I get back into doing what I do.

A few days ago Beverly Dewitt Yancy – the father of the legendary James ‘J. Dilla’ Yancey – passed away after a long battle with cancer and other health issues. He and J. Dilla’s mother, Maureen ‘Ma Dukes’ Yancy are definitely important figures in hip hop music, keeping the legacy of their son alive for all of us to enjoy. Good man with a great heart and an amazing son, I just want to send my condolences to the entire Yancy family and anyone who had the privilege of knowing this sweet man. You and your son together again in heaven. Makes me feel better. Rest Peacefully.

Anyways… its always a good time to play J. Dilla’s music.
