@kingdoge69 2 года назад

The bird sample blew my mind, I thought it was a bell, but it’s actually the bird making that sound too

@ochosen1o 4 года назад

Premo makes modern-day hieroglyphics. In 70 years people will look back and wonder how in 1999 these sounds were perceived this way. Remember Chosen told ya. :)

Premo hated sample snitching

@champ3660 8 лет назад

+Sinc1TV Hated? Past tense? He doesn't anymore?

@Sinc1TV 8 лет назад

True. Doesn't make it less wack but very true. He made that statement before the internet days, when DJs were giving away the samples. I know of a few well known Indie artists who got cease and desists for albums because of people sample snitching in the RU-vid comments though. I don't think people do it maliciously, but sometimes there are repercussions to posting the samples in a public forum

@tripleBworld 8 лет назад

I went to the Prhyme concert he had with royce da 5'9. He had this part of the show where he pretty much started his beats from scratch and it ended up as the classic beats we all know and love. Similar to what happens in this video, except around a thousand people were reciting the lyrics together.

@Sinc1TV 8 лет назад

+Moe William That's dope.

@tripleBworld 8 лет назад

Sinc1TV Yea man it was like witnessing the purest form of hiphop greatness, everyone was bumping heads haaard. As soon as we heard Nas is Like, and Shook ones, everyone in the venue was jumping.

@SteveWallaceMusic 3 года назад

This is great man! The bird chirp as the bell, I never knew that! Dope! One correction here... The kick drum pattern is supposed to be different in the song proper vs the intro. You used the same pattern for the intro and the song. All good tho! Very informative.

I'm a huge NWA fan and i see you don't have any of their songs down but if you could break down one of their songs that would be great. Gangsta Gangsta is my personal fav/ request, Thanks.

@djg-wizmixshows2581 7 лет назад

gangsta gangsta is a loop of "weak at the knees" by Steve Arrington, a scratch sample of "Eazy Duz It" and "Ruthless Villain" by Eazy E , a drum sample of " Ashley's Roachclip" by the soul searchers and "NT " bt Kool and The Gang with an 808 pattern patched in through an sp1200 . The break is made up of samples from "Johnny wuz a gangsta" by original concept, "My philosophy" by Boogie Down Productions, and " Sonnet to my idol" by Lady Reed. It also contains samples of "LA Di Da Di " by Doug E. Fresh, "A Bitch iz a Bitch" by NWA , " God Made Me Funky" by the Headhunters, "Take The Money and Run" by The Steve Miller Band, "Impeach The President " by The Honeydrippers, " Troglodyte " by Jimmy Castor, "Funky Worm" by The Ohio Players, and "Ain't no Half Steppin" by Big Daddy Kane .
