Dope song - however - i felt Clever shoulda talked about himself and his production methods more so.
and maybe even show a lil construction of the actual beat and how he mixed the song down -
over all nice - i like the studio as well- simple and effective
the next one will have more of that.

much props. what was used in the vocal chain? hardware to software how was that clarity achieved?
What do you mean "vocal chain"? as far as the hard ware to software goes, my mixer is the "voltron head" if you will. my motif, mpc, cd player, turntable, mic, etc. are all connected to the mixer which is connected to the pc. mix them together with the sequencer and i'm good to go.

Nice sh*t. Yall sorta remind me of Jedi Mind Tricks for some reason. Nice beats man, them sh*ts was bangin kid, real grimey. You use that Motif to sample or what?
Protege
Thanks bro, to me thats a serious compliment. I usually use the motif to sample, but the mpc is alot more precise, so if a certain sample needs to reeeeeeally be tweaked i'll use the mpc to get the job done.
