If you were to break it down to that you have to consider what an instrument is. Learning to make a great a song with a drum in some cases can be just as hard as learning how to make a good song on the guitar.
whole album is beautiful. and don't hate on the production ... whatever you think of kanye west is irrelevant ... the song was produced very well. dilla is the master, but that doesn't mean the production on this joint wasn't on point.
I hear you. What Dilla did was cast a shadow over Kanye, 9th, Blaze, and so on. Any producer will always get, "he's tight, but Dilla..." Greats included i.e. Pete Rock, Premier, Ali Shaheed, Dre, Quik... Dilla was dope, but he unintentionally cursed anyone into chopping samples.
Nah, I hear both you guys. what I'm saying is... take Kobe and Lebron for instance. They are both cold blooded on the floor, but Jordan will always be the standard they're measured against. All the others I named are my favs, but Dilla...
I like how kanye did this album with J dilla in mind like chop it the way he did it and with common rhyming over that , that's real hip hop , best rap album of the year !
this is TRULY what the definition of hip hop is.you see how he's talking about a relationship without the female being a hoe or a b@#$H,etc.and shes not a freak or watev.you can rap about a lady and not degrade her.thumbs up.
Oh yes this is the shit I love this track and the sample is from George Duke the name of the song is "Someday" I heard this album as a kid. Common hands up on this shit it is hot.
this is my fav for real... i love when he reminds us that he is a man and loves intimacy.... "Ive got my side card baby Im an actor" lord I fell out when I heard that lmao. Love ya dude!
I hate when people say you gotta play an instrument; but they don't know that Kayne and Dilla both are good at Piano

sorry a producer is a man who can play an instrument and put together his own harmonies & melodies.
Try again.
