Most classic beats dont take TOO much..but those are usually the best. It's not as easy as it might sound though when you try to create from scratch a classic, yet simple beat.

It's funny that he says he was inspired by Nas's "The World Is Yours" Pete Rock version... but the vocal sample comes from the Q-Tip remix (Nas doesn't say "dead fucking presidents to represent me" on the Pete Rock version only "dead presidents to represent me")

It wasn't like I was making fun of him. Just making note that that vocal sample doesn't actually come from that version.

seeing shit like this makes me sad. Sad that hip hop now, is dead. I love how this kat is into it too. Most beatmakers these days only care about the paycheque.
"I dunno if you can hear that on your speakers at home?....sounds good" never a tuer word spoken...
