The City of Detroit decided to honor legendary Hip Hop producer, DJ and rapper James Dewitt Yancey, better known as J Dilla, by naming a street after him on the city's East side. BridgeDetroit Engagement Editor and massive Dilla fan Bryce Huffman (@clones2012) went to the unveiling yesterday. Dilla's daughters made remarks alongside City Council President Mary Sheffield and Joylette Hunter, the Spokesperson for the Dilla estate. Dilla passed away in 2006 just 3 days after he turned 32 years old. His legacy lives on in the hearts, souls and headphones of Hip Hop fans across the globe. February 7th is now officially J Dilla Day in Detroit.
