The Estate of James Yancey has revived PayJay Productions, Inc. as a functioning imprint, and is announcing its release of J Dilla's long lost vocal album, The Diary. "Anthem"/�Trucks� is the first single for the album. TIP!!

Both �Anthem� and �Trucks� were produced, and feature complete vocal performances, by Dilla. The tracks come straight from multi-track masters found on 2� tape shortly after Dilla�s passing in 2006. These songs have been mixed by engineer Dave Cooley, who worked extensively with Dilla during his years in Los Angeles. Using Dilla�s original demo mixes as his guide, Cooley attempted to finalise Dilla�s vision for these tracks, while keeping all of the elements that Dilla had in place in his original demos present.
