The latest chapter of The Diary leaks.

J Dilla’s ‘Diamonds (The Shining Pt. 1)’ (produced by Nottz) will appear on his long-lost vocal album The Diary. The soulful single follows the previously released ‘Anthem / Trucks’ single; stream it below.

Still no word on when the entire Diary album will see release on his family-run Pay Jay imprint, but the Diamonds & Ice EP is due out August 27. Along with ‘Diamonds’, the EP will include the Madlib-produced ‘Ice (The Shining Pt. 2) and ‘The D’, a Madlib instrumental that Dilla had intended to record vocals over. The EP will receive a first pressing on clear 12″ vinyl in a sleeve designed by Jeff Jank, featuring art by Shepard Fairey and B+. [via Pitchfork]
