Daily Dose Of Dilla ... Janet Jackson - "Got Till It's Gone"
Not many people know this outside of Janet Jackson and Jay Dee fans put this song was actually produced by Jay Dee contrary to what the liner notes say. The long and short explanation was that Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis were given credit for the song via a "misprint" in the liner notes. But actually listening to the elements of the production, the sound is a lot more soulful than any of the synth based pop/funk that they have touched. And Dilla's signature drum sequencing plus Q Tip on the track let you know if you ain't knowing that this is Dilla all day. Not to mention, when was the last time Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis used a sampler?
