J. Dilla @OfficialJDilla1 - Jay Love Japan (Album Stream)

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on May 7, 2016 at 9:15am

J Dilla is widely regarded as one of the greatest hip-hop producers of all time, having supplied timeless soundbeds for the likes of A Tribe Called Quest, Slum Village, The Pharcyde,Busta Rhymes, Common, De La Soul, The Roots, D’Angelo,Erykah Babu, Madlib, and many more. In 2005, rumors began circulating about an album called Jay Love Japan, a J Dilla solo project inspired by one of Jay Dee's favorite locations to visit on tour. After Dilla's untimely death in early 2006, the album became a lost classic shrouded in mystery, with only unofficial bootlegs and promo versions available. An official CD version was eventually released in 2008, but quickly went out of print.

Now, the album is finally receiving the official release it always deserved. Just in time for Mother's Day, J Dilla's mother Ma Dukes and her label Vintage Vibez Music Group are proud to present official vinyl and CD versions of Jay Love Japan. This 11-track collection of Dilla instrumentals and vocal tracks features appearances from Blu, Miguel, J*Davey, Ta'Raach, Exile,Baatin, and more, making it the perfect snapshot of late-period J Dilla brilliance.

This limited-edition collection is available on CD, vinyl, or deluxe edition. Deluxe edition includes the album on CD + vinyl, plus an exclusive Jay Love Japan T-shirt and a bonus 7" flexi-disc. Bonus 7" is exclusive and not available through any other retailers.

Atlanta's AIDS Epidemic Compared To Third World Countries: "Downtown Is As Bad As Zimbabwe Or Harare Or Durban" (Video)

(WSB-TV) A deadly disease is rampant in Metro Atlanta, and scientists are calling it an epidemic.

Channel 2's Dave Huddleston spoke with researchers and doctors who said Atlanta is the epicenter of that epidemic, comparing some neighborhoods to developing African countries.

J.R. Watson is a towering man, and the only hair on his head is a handle-bar mustache.

Just by looking at him, you'd never know he has AIDS. He recalled the moment he found out he was positive 20 years ago.

He contracted HIV from a woman he was dating. He told Huddleston his story hoping to keep young people from making a potentially lethal mistake.

"All it took was that one time with that wrong person to change your life forever," Watson said. "It doesn't matter who you are, just because you live in a nice neighborhood, just because you're alive outside of Atlanta."

"I sat there and literally cried like a baby for 30 to 45 minutes," Watson told Huddleston.

IMPACT IN ATLANTA

But if you live in the capitol city, AIDS research officials said the number of people effected is staggering.

"Downtown Atlanta is as bad as Zimbabwe or Harare or Durban," said Dr. Carlos del Rio, co-director of Emory University's Center for AIDS Research.

Del Rio said the disease shifted from one that mainly affected gay men and drug users in the late '80s to a disease that now affects just about every population, but in particular African-Americans with limited access to health care.

"Don't have food on your table, have kids to take care of and somebody says you have HIV, that's just another, that's just another problem that you have," del Rio said.

GRANT MONEY IN FULTON COUNTY

Another problem was a lack of leadership and mismanagement in Fulton County.

A 2015 Fulton County internal audit of their HIV Prevention Program cited poor management after the county squandered millions of CDC grant dollars meant for HIV programs.

Ultimately the county had to return millions to the CDC.

"Well it certainly was a bruised eye," said Fulton County Chairman John Eaves.

The County Commission asked for audits of the embattled Health Department and demanded changes in procedures.

"I did meet with city officials directly and assured them that processes were in place and make sure going forward monies would be better accounted for," Eaves said.

CDC STUDY

A recent study released by the CDC shows why that funding is so critical.

If you live in the southeast, you're more likely to be diagnosed with HIV than any other part of the country and in Georgia the risk of diagnosis leaps to one in 51.

"We should not be having an epidemic of that proportion in a country like ours," del Rio said. "This is not Africa, we have resources."

Fulton County now has a new public health director and HIV programs like mobile testing units are more visible around the city. The van travels to ZIP codes with the highest number of HIV cases.

Channel 2 was there when the testing unit was by Grady Hospital. They tested more than 30 people, and two came back HIV positive.

But fortunately for Watson, HIV is no longer an automatic death sentence -- if you receive treatment.

With access to antivirals he is looking forward to living a long life. His diagnosis didn't get in the way of him finding love and he is now married.

"I fall in love with her every day and that's no lie," Watson said. "That's no exaggeration."
