I'd like to meet:

J DILLA- MAY HE REST IN PEACE. HE IS MY INSPIRATION TO DEAL WITH MUSIC AND THE BUSINESS PERIOD. MY HEART IS BROKEN. I KNOW HIS LEGACY WILL LIVE ON THROUGH THE MUSIC, BUT I NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO MEET HIM TO LET HIM KNOW HOW MUCH HE REALLY MEANT TO ME. HIS MUSIC ALONE HAS TAKEN ME FROM A REALLY BAD DAY/MOMENT, TO A STATE OF PEACE AND CLARITY. HE WILL TRUELY BE MISSED.
