40 second mark to 1:30 mark belongs in a museum.


Context: an old “beat battle” between Alchemist and Just Blaze. Even Just and his team were going crazy. Love it.

Love it, Alchemist will go down as an all time great. Nothing better than a battle, be it mic or turntable. DJ Cash Money was my all time favorite. He won the World DJ supremacy title in '88.

Agreed. Alchemist puts out so many projects too - he must just make music 24-7. Switches his sounds up quite a bit too.

Fun video I stumbled upon of how the sample was made for Shook Ones Pt. II. Havoc puts together one slowed down section of the opening piano to Jessica by Herbie Hancock and then it cuts to a slightly less slowed down/higher pitched section. And bam! Beautiful stuff. Genius. Love samples where you can basically not hear it at all in the original song.

Love these kinds of videos. Came across Khrysis showing how he made “Jesus Khrysis” for Conway.

Phonte with an early verse of the year contender for 2021. Good grief.

Still think Slippin’ is one of the better songs ever made, period.

Teenage me would listen to this song on repeat when I was feeling down. Driving around town in my blue Chevy Cavalier with twin 12" pioneer subwoofers in the trunk. The whole East Side knew when I was depressed.

P.S. this song came on SiriusXM Fly yesterday and I can still rap the whole thing flawlessly, even though it was probably the first time I'd heard that song in 10 years.

A tv critic I like mentioned that someday he wants to see DMX have a cooking show called X Gon' Grill it for Ya and I'm afraid we will be deprived of this.

First single from one of my long time favorite producers first solo album, where he’s also rapping - something he’s rarely done.

I don't know what I was thinking.
