Peanut Butter Wolf also tells some of the more intimate details surrounding J Dilla’s death, sudden press interest after Dilla’s passing, and Ma Dukes’ current financial situation.

Notable Quote:
"Before we put this out [Donuts], we were sending it to the press and trying to get people to write about it and nobody was interested in interviewing Dilla, nobody was interested in anything. Then after he passed away, every newspaper, every magazine, everybody was calling us to talk to us about Dilla."
