What Makes a Hip Hop Album A Classic
What makes a classic? Whoa... very good question. I guess, the 1st thing is that it as to be accepted as a classic by a majority... (cuz some people might say that "Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik" (outkast 1st album) is a classic, but I think more poeple say that "Aquemini" is, not their 1st...- sYgMa

Do your prefer sampled or real-time hip hop production
I'd like to see someone say to Snoop, DJ Quik, Daz, Kurupt, Outkast and all those westside/southside boys... "You know what? You aint hiphop." Yeah, some of them do use samples... but not ALL their beats are sample based. Not ALL!!! Oh, by the way, Vince... it was really obivous that I... -
Do your prefer sampled or real-time hip hop production
Instead of saying that people dont know their history... (I made a lil research) The roots of hip hop music are in West African and African American music. The griots of West Africa are a group of traveling singers and poets, whose musical style is reminiscent of hip hop. True hip hop arose... -

Do your prefer sampled or real-time hip hop production
... Did it came from the east or not? YEAH IT DID... I was just making sure so someone doesnt tell me otherwise... if it didn't come from the East, well then just say where it did come from... And I was taking Battlecat as an exemple because he's been doing his thing for quite a while. Yes... -
Keyboard
depends what you mean by that... KEYBOARD -> that a actual keyboard with a sound module in. Very expensive, but the sounds are REALLY nice, if you look for the right one. And you gotta know if you want a sampler or a synthertizer... You can use them like a midi controller, but then, the... -

Question..
Only thing that is common to most bangers is a banging drum beat... (and even that is not always right...) the rest is up to you -
Do your prefer sampled or real-time hip hop production
I have a very hard time with that kind of thinking... that's what makes it that a style cant evolve. You probably are from the EastCoast, cuz it's true, Hiphop originated from the East (NY, if I recall...) And so they used vinyls to make their beats. But why did they use records? Cuz they... -
For my mom...Rest in Peace.
wow, that post... that's real strong of you, man! Losing a precious person always put your life into perspective. I have a great relationship with my mom lately and I am very thankful for that... same goes with my dad and me. Actually, my parents are in a divorce. I'm the only one in the...- sYgMa

Do your prefer sampled or real-time hip hop production
I really dont get why people who sample say that composed beats are not true hiphop... Really, I like both style and samples do give a "grimmy" "rough" sound to the music... but does it really HAVE to be that way? I like to cut drum beats and add compositions or cut a sample to use as an... -
What's the most realistic sounds out there??
I dont think there is one single answer to you question. Depending on what you want to emulate, some programs/sounds/soundbank are more realistic than others... But all in all, my guess is that modules (and keyboards) are the ones who have the most realistic sounds, since they are mostly based... -
A tight beat, but...
...yeah, I'm thinking about it. I know it did happen to me in the past (once you achieve a goal you wanted to achieve, you always are happy of the final product, even if it's crappy...) but I thought I was over that now. But I trully hope that I'll listen to the beat in 2 or 3 weeks and still...
