yall gotta remember though that 9th was taught everything he knows by Pete Rockwell, so yeah 9th is the shit and yeah 9th is on a whole nother level than these other djs out right now, just hasnt gotten all the limelight he deserves if you ask me

i still gotta say orig is better.... infact one of my top primo beats of all time. as a bass player that bass guitar orientated beat is the top of the top
i got mad love for premo's beats, hes a big influence to me and the hip hop game... but i gotta say, im feelin this 9th wonder remix more... DOPE DOPE DOPE DOPE DOPE beat
I recommend you watch the movie Zeitgeist 1 and 2. You'll actually find out how a lot of the violence that we are subjected to, is maintained via the mass media, monetary system and sadly even the government. I know this may sound a bit outlandish but just try and give it a shot. It's a great movie in my opinion.

@madvillain6184 "sorry man better than the original. I have all the respect for Premo, but 9th killed this!!" You wrote-unquote. Word, man no doubt about it, no rap--this joint is just too tough!!!
9th came thru with this one, hella smooth, but i dont understand people who didnt like the original preemo version, the only bad thing i can say about that version is that ive listened to it too many times lol
Yea doesnt come close to the original...this beat is better suited for this track kid....9th wonder by far one of my fav producers...his beats are just that dam good...
I had used this joint before myself...9th just looped the first 10 seconds of the joint back and filtered the bass real high in it. Dope joint if I may say so myself...but its one of his more "Easier" beats. I know any able producer including 9th could've taken what he did with the sample and knocked it out in 10 minutes...Its not HOW u do it tho, its whta u do, and this is classic to me. Good ish
I agree that this is easy when you consider the sample, but what 9th does to the music to accomodate the hook is simply fuckin amazing. I can't tell what he manipulated exactly, but for someone like me who can't make beats, it comes off as something with a high level of difficulty.
LMAO @ People still saying 9th wonders version is better then Primos....9th is probably my favorite producer right now, but in no way did he match the emotion of what Primo brought out of Nas....This beat doesn't even give the right atmosphere for the song.
Cooking Souls remix of this song is better then 9ths...They matched the tempo and emotion, with a beautiful melodic beat....I love 9th wonders beats, but this one doesn't come close to the original.
cooking soul is fucking wack..... them dude ain't matching shit up. listen to there "fakin jax'" remix... straight up sample stelaing, no originality motherfuckers. atleast 9th chops his shit up
Am I saying Cooking Soul is overall better???? Did I imply that in anyway??? No....I distinctly put emphasis on the remix of 2nd Childhood, and their direction was better and more suited for the vibe of the original song.
its like this original is always better cause its classic but if this was the original the original would noe be as good as this so that mean its equal dig me?
