The Rap Thread: News, Reviews, Rants, Opinions Vol 7. Death to Swizz Beats!

=D

yea.

Wow I’m done yo…thats like the illest dumb line ever :rofl:

  1. Swizz Beatz drums are NOT special in the slightest, pretty generic actually. His stuff used to knock hard and that was the appeal, but there was really nothign to write home about with regards to them.
  2. I don’t think P has the best drums period. Timbo just gets WAY too creative with them, betweeen the sound selection and the patterns themselves, hell, I’ve redone P drum patterns before with no issue. Timbo though? HELL DUDE WAS KILLIN’EM WITHOUT SNARES 0_0

oh shit, i didn’t know that rjd2 dropped an album! listening to it now, very third hand-ish aka dope.

props in that 8ball an mjg knowledge!

ive been revisting a lot of throwback south shyt to see what i missed when i was younger listening… suave house really held it down wit that smooth shyt i must say… too bad tony draper didnt know how to handle the money cause his lineup in his camp was sick an couldve rivaled across town rap a lot

his shyt is soooooo crisp cause he has the guy that has mastered everyone from the beatles on down… look back at the early death row albums… their post production mastering was being done VERY high end… hence the reason puff an everyone an they momma was on some WE GOTTA CATCH UP… not cause of the rhymes an shyt… but the clarity of stuff. an like short term noted dre extra perfectionist ass would "take a drum kick or snare an go throw a whole sound spectrum before it “hit right” - warren g/snoop quote

love the man… but now as i watched dre an heard “studio stories” from artist to engineers… he would be a pain in the ASS. i guess thats why he has a studio in his crib now cause i couldnt stand sitting in a room hearing someone replyin the same kick all day. i would lose it… roflmao

What’s the name of that cam’ron tape everybody was talking about awhile back?I want to download it.

boss of all bosses. and why does every new rapper cam picks up except for tom giest gotta be a mimic of himself

Oddly enough i was thinking the same thing just yesterday.

Probably “Boss of all Bosses 2” (w/Dj drama)

Shit is nice and makes me want to start playing it again…

Yo this dude on some shit right now haha

Anyway, I wanted to know if any of you guys heard of Macklemore. He’s a white guy from Seattle and I won’t say he spits HOT FIRE, but his tracks have a good point on most. He has 3 mixtapes. Language of my World, The Unplanned Mixtape, and a new one with Ryan lewis The VS EP. Here’s links to my favorite songs by him.

Tell me with you guys enjoy his songs

@ TDP

Lol he has his good moments, but he sound like he gonna die any minute on the track

Yeah. How can you hate on Gucci when he puts out hotness like [media=youtube]2Bxxk4TVZcU"[/media]…:rofl:

don’t make me upload a best of gucci/so icey tape. i’m telling you if ppl give them a shot they’ll like them. they have good music.
to me, its not about the dopest lyrics but who makes the dopest songs right now. gucci is pretty consistent, IMHO and him and a few other members of so icey are stepping their lyrics up anyway.

Well since everyone brought him up I decided to give Deltron another spin.

I just can’t do it…not knocking dude, just don’t think I can really take full songs of him, his work with Gorillas was PERFECT quantities for me. But Dan the Automater is puttin out some flames on this joint…though some of it seems different by ‘force’.
