This track was done by my man XXXplicit... a local cat from Flushing Queens.. Dude is sooo talented...He did this track on the strength cuz Large Pro and Q-Tip was like idols to him growing up...I'm gonna make sure to let him know how much luv he got for this joint...
So dope! Man I love the line Meth said f**k a rap critic. They always diss brothers in these magazines on write ups. They have no talent. The lp is classic.
The loop that's played in the intro and in the chorus is so much flyer to me than what they have under the verses. I thought it would have been perfect if they had just kept that going for the whole thing. Because melodically it has that perfect hard yet yearning melancholy feel that I associate with rainy days in Bronx or Manhattan. Yeah, everybody's a critic, but that's my opinion.
@janowitsch No doubt bruh! He said in a late Scratch mag that he stays relevant EVERY YEAR, you just have to look for his production credits! And this remains true because Scratch has been gone since 05' I think, don't quote me, lol! Large Pro still gets it in & he IS in my top three favorite producers EVER!! Big ups to REAL HIP HOP, LARGE PRO, & YOU BRUH FOR KEEPING UP WITH CORNERSTONES SUCH AS LARGE PRO!!
The Session is now LIVE with EvenStephen & The MarXman from Graphic Nature. Now playing "In The Sun" by Large Professor. This week a 2002 hip hop retrospective. Tune in now at "raprevival d o t c o m / radio" for some real underground hip hop. Hit us up on FaceBook too "The Session 91.7 WIXQ"
By rights this should have been a huge hit back in '02, the lyrics the production the hook the chorus its pretty much about a perfect example of how rap songs should be done.
But i guess the masses continue to sleep on the truely special stuff.
The groove on that break is sublime, the timing between the kick and snare... this track creates its own space and time... @PaserOnePsy "the piece was one of the sickest i ever bombed in my life..." an uninterupted stream of thought from the subconcious directly to the concious, the track deflecting all unwanted signal like a wheel rotating at high speed...
This was not prod. by Large Pro, dawgs! "Produced by Xplicit"
Large Pro has not had the best beats in the recent years, unfortunately... he started in hip-hop insanely, though! The best tracks of Eric B. & Rakim are his, for example (also dope as an MC).
GOOD STUFF ! SHOUT OUTS FROM DJ BLENZ . THE MOVEMENT IS CALLED MUSIC EMANCIPATION.THE CAUSE.. KILL WACK MUSIC!! SO KILL IT BY GOING TO TO MY PROFILE BELOW !
eh yo i literally zone to hip hop all day, its my only reason for living i think its the only thing that wont betray me in this cold cruel fucking world
amazing beat, outstanding lyrics, a true message and meaning. Add those and you get a great rap song. Live in the underground. Join in the underworld. (Not Hell, the real world)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
very ill track, much props to the large professor, notorious big need to do a killa freestyle off of this and go against the large professor. LARGE PROFESSOR VS NOTORIOUS BIG IN THE SUN REMIX FREESTYLE!.
love how its comin right now; hope they come again, but truly thankful for this return...all the secrets are out, the formula unchanged, but no one can do it like NY native/jazz cats. Got grown folks emotional this evening, sorry kids
in the sun is a tight joint str8 nice hip hop, the large professor and q-tip ripped it on this!!!!!!!!! much respect much respect to the large professor the genius of rap!!!.
about 5 years ago, I was in downtown boston bombing on some train tracks near kenmore square, and yo, i listened to this track prolly 20 times in a row, no lie. Its one of those tracks you can zone out to, and have no desire to change the track. Strait mood music. The piece was one of the sickest i ever bombed in my life. I was so honed in on the paint, the scene, the mood, it was so deep. I think about that nite every day. like graf fiti perfection. can any of yall writers relate 2 that?
@PaserOnePsy happened to me when I was mad blunted on Gang Starr's deadly habitz, driving through the Northeastern area in Boston. Literally was the first time I was truly happy.
RIP hip hop we play this in remembrance of you
