And at the core of this adulation is innovation: a new kind of musical time-feel that he created on a drum machine, but one that changed the way “traditional” musicians play. Yet since his death, J Dilla has become a demigod: revered by jazz musicians and rap icons from Robert Glasper to Kendrick Lamar memorialized in symphonies and taught at universities. He died at the age of thirty-two, and in his lifetime he never had a pop hit. He wasn’t known to mainstream audiences, even though he worked with renowned acts like D’Angelo and Erykah Badu and influenced the music of superstars like Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson. “This book is a must for everyone interested in illuminating the idea of unexplainable genius.” -QUESTLOVEĮqual parts biography, musicology, and cultural history, Dilla Time chronicles the life and legacy of J Dilla, a musical genius who transformed the sound of popular music for the twenty-first century.

Last week I mooted the idea that we should run a Jack London double-header, since many of his books are so short and since his output was so varied and fascinating. There are more reasons for leaving extra time before embarking on The Iron Heel: it appears to be out of print in the UK ( although freely available online, because it’s out of copyright), so this should provide a bit of time to hunt down copies. ![]() It sounds uncomfortably like your average liberal’s worst fears, and I hardly dare read it until the nightmare of this US election is finally over. It provides a dystopian vision of the US in which the middle class are squeezed out of existence, farmers reduced to serfdom and a few oligarchs control nearly all the wealth, not to mention a private army of mercenaries, and rule – as the title suggests – by stomping on the face of all who oppose them. Orwell called The Iron Heel a “remarkable prophecy of the rise of fascism”. But, however the result goes, this has been a uniquely unsettling and frightening year for the world’s biggest democracy, so it feels fitting that The Iron Heel, London’s book about the collapse of US democracy and brutal rule by a thuggish elite, emerged as the first popular choice in our vote. As I write this, I don’t know who will replace Barack Obama as US president. ![]() It wasn’t just the confusion of the vote that fitted our unsettling times. ![]() ![]() ![]() You end up struggling with life instead of experiencing it.

In this course, we will put to rest any questions you have about that inner dialogue. Since its publication in 2007, I’ve been inundated with questions about why that inner voice is always talking, why so much of what it says is negative and stressful, and most importantly, how you free yourself from it. This is the opening sentence of my book, The Untethered Soul. “In case you haven’t noticed, you have a mental dialogue going on inside your head that never stops.” Here’s what the author has to say about the program: Now available on CD or as a digital download, Living from a Place of Surrender brings you the same perspective-shifting, spiritually liberating teaching sessions for letting go of stress and fear and aligning with the flow of life in the moment. The program features eight profound and inspiring all-new sessions drawn from Singer’s fifty years as a spiritual teacher (and a highly successful business entrepreneur).
