It's that time again. Today is February 7, 2010, and on this day back in 1974, one of the greatest producers of all time was born. Ironically, February 10th (2006) was the day that he died. On this episode we pay tribute to the classic sounds of J Dilla, barely scratching the surface of his classic beats and rhymez.

In the second hour we also pay tribute to three other legends who recently passed on : Apache , Killa Sha , and Teddy Pendergrass. And DJ Tactics even sneaks in a couple new bangers.

Pure Elementz brought to you by DJ Jay-Ski and DJ Tactics! This episode is 2 hours long and jam-packed, too many classics to list!
