February is fast approaching and that means one thing, J Dilla month is upon us. Jay Dee, the Detroit based producer has become a legend and is the most celebrated Hip Hop producer of all time. He has worked with the likes of Tribe Called Quest, Common, The Pharcyde, Busta Rhymes and countless others. DJ Trumastr founded the Beat*Shot spins for J Dilla event 3 years ago to raise funds for the J Dilla Foundation, which helps fund inner-city music programs and curriculums. The event has local musicians from the area perform, DJ and cover Jay Dee songs to pay tribute to the late producer. All proceeds from the event go to the foundation. We created this “518 donut” logo for Beat*Shot which will be featured on all materials and apparel for the event. Donuts were a huge love of J Dilla’s and was even the title for his last album right before he passed. We pay tribute to the musician who has had a monumental impact on the hip hop and music scene as a whole. Thank you Jay Dee.
