VID: Q-TIP – MOVE

Kinda a trip to hear this again after MJ’s passing. I remember hearing this beat on a beat tape. Dilla flipped the J5 cut “Dancin’ Machine“. This video is also worth checking.

Hold up! On second thought, midaswell include this one too!!!

QUINCY ON MICHAEL JACKSON @ SXSW 2009

Not to bombard you with the plethora of MJ posts thats been out there in the blogosphere and beyond but this is a good one. “Q” talks about making “Off the Wall” and “Thriller“-the biggest selling album in the world and one of the best music videos you will ever see!

…while you’re here, check out the Thriller video…and its not even a video, its more like a short film. Still creeps me out more than any “scary” movie Hollywood could ever come out with!
