Apr 6, 2016 I still can't get past his death man long live both of these legendary contributors to the genre. Those scratches near the end
Apr 8, 2016 song is great.. too bad we wont get to hear the rest of the ep.. A Tribe Called Quest’s Phife Dawg, aka Malik I. Taylor, passed away last month due to complications from diabetes. At the time of his death, he’d been working on a solo album called Give Thanks. Today, Apple’s Beats 1 premiered a song from that album called “Nutshell,” which features a beat from the late J Dilla. “Phife loved his fans, and was so excited for them to hear his new music,” his widow Deisha Taylor said in a statement. “I feel like he would have wanted it this way.” Phife’s friend and manager Dion Liverpool said, “The single displays Phife’s legendary wordplay as he describes himself, in a nutshell, so to speak.”
