When Donuts first rolled into the Lab, I gave it a cursory listen, and, wanting to get home to the new episode of \u003cem\u003eLost\u003c\/em\u003e as quickly as possible, tossed off a pithy little blurb for it. It wasn't until a few days later, when we all heard of \u003ca target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJ Dilla\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e's passing, that I realized how much I really believed in the sentiments I'd written down. Here's the original review. R.I.P., Mr. Yancey:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eYou really need to read this?\u003c\/i\u003e Everyone -- from backpackers to big name producers -- agrees that Dilla is the god, and this new record is only here to confirm what we already knew. Featuring 31 tracks of freshly-minted beats from the master himself, \u003cem\u003eDonuts\u003c\/em\u003e is a collection of instrumentals that not only manage to sound substantive and complete (despite the fact that they're all under 2 minutes in length) but that also come together to form a cohesive whole. It's a kind of new mission statement for the old dog, and it couldn't have come at a better time.
