Stones Throw Records celebrates 20 years of J Dilla's Donuts with a brand new Anniversary Audiophile Edition. Produced with fans and vinyl collectors in mind, the Audiophile Edition of Donuts is a deluxe version of J Dilla’s magnum opus.
Donuts began simply enough as an idea to turn a demo tape into a full-length album. It would end up being one of the defining works of J Dilla's life. Completed during the year Dilla spent in and out of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles and released on his birthday, February 7, 2006, Donuts gained particular poignancy when Dilla died three days later on February 10th.
