Beat CD ’05

~ Release by J Dilla (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

These are sometimes considered installments of 'Beat CD', 'Dilla's Beat CD', or 'Dilla Beats'. I'm not aware of any evidence these were released on CD and perhaps should be changed to digital.

Sometimes these are labeled as 'Beat CD 2004' and the actual creation dates of the beats are unknown.

Although this is likely not the first place these songs were distributed, this release here was added based on https://web.archive.org/web/20100314010140/http://rappamelo.com/2010/02/j-dilla-beat-cd1-2-3-4/, which also appears to be where the cover art was sourced.

The fourth installment (or medium #4 here) is frequently not included in distributions and contains some of the same tracks from others (namely medium #2 here or the second installment).
