if any of you mutherfuckers knew anything about makin beats you would know how hard it is to make some thing that sounds dope like that so shut the fuck up kids

[MurderToCassette]

Anyone who thinks sampling isn't art must think "Une Semaine De Bonté" isn't either.

[ManFromOverThere]

Try sampling first, make something for us since you're already a master at it, should be easy.

[TheTvrulesthenation]

Sounds kind of Nujabes-ish, i love it

@zxzrp0

But sampling one instrument or melody and working it in such a way not even the artist of the sample knows it is there, that's the hard part.

[zxzrp0]

@theBestinThebizz95 I disagree with how "hard" you make sampling sound. Just a bit of "know how" cutting\splicing\timing and fucking around. Engineering a sound....thats a different school altogether. At the end of the day they both make music, but, one took alot more talent where as one borrowed it.

@KebbyTheProphet it was so good i love spitta. perfect music to just kick it too and smoke some lol. smoke break is my favorite off that tape. the video for it is genius.

[KebbyTheProphet]

@DjSkyfaze covert coup had the rawest beats bro. i agree

[DjSkyfaze]

covert coup was the shit

[quezicotl]

@KebbyTheProphet When you are making a beat, you have to find the right Beats per minute, aka the Tempo, he had it narrowed down between 64 and 81, you could hear shortly after he said that, that he found it.

[MChiyoitsmo]

i love this :)

@holy0damn As a music - sampling is based on heavy state of creators mind (beside of knowledge of tools). Music created that way is about mood mostly. Well i could write and write here but the main problem are people who don't want to get some wisdom and read or stop being ignorant.
