It’s been nearly nine years since American producer J Dilla passed away, but his memory lives on and, what was once Dilla Day (February 7) has now evolved into Dilla Weekend. The event, running February 5 to 8, is put on by the late artist’s mother Maureen ‘Ma Dukes’ Yancey in Miami and will feature a barrage of huge artists like Joey Bada$$, Madlib, Pete Rock, Talib Kweli, Slum Village, Black Milk, esta., and Camp Lo, with more to come. In addition to performances, there will be barbecues, panels, meet and greets and more. Check the poster above for the extraordinary lineup and cop your tickets here.
