James Yancey is J Dilla’s given name.
Earlier this month, De La Soul’s Trugoy said that the response the group got by giving away its entire catalog for free on Valentine’s Day has encouraged the trio to record and release new material.
“It motivated us even more,” the rapper also known as Dove said. “We’re already in the process of recording two albums, but actually it made us feel like we really, really need to get this done. People are still fans, still really love the music and let’s do it for them.”
