That's real!

Or when Tape Op and Computer Music replaces Penthouse and Playboy.

When you make a beat sooo hot u don't even want to sell it. "Fcuk that I'm going to rap/sing on this joint myself"...and u don't even rap or sing.

When you come out the studio one day and ur kids are grown!

When you have to retract your no eating in the studio rule cuz u kept fainting from low blood sugar.

this a great thread..... becuz other non beakmakers..(ie. parents, relatives, girls) have no idea what you do and the extent that you do it to.....these are all true for me too

..when you look at your clock and have no idea whether it is 4:00pm or 4:00am or even know what day of the week it is for that matter

..when you leave a hot party where you had a hottie talking in your ear and go home becuz you "just thought of something for a new beat"

.. when u look at your cell phone and it says "you have 13 missed calls" even though it was right next to you because you have been blasting your tunes for several hours

..spend more time looking for bootleg software than looking for a job

..when you smell really really bad

..when you go to sleep with studio headphones on

..when you start dancing and jumpin around in your room because you found a hot sample

..when you turn down a sex offer from a hottie becuz your are in the middle of makin a beat

..when you can tell the diffrence betwwen an mp3 played at 128kps and 192kps.

..when your music collection makes your hornball friend's porn collection look miniscule..
..when you are a top ten poster on illmuzik.com

All dat describes me (except for the smelling bad part. Lol)
All the rest is so true.


Oh and
-when you call out sick @ work cause you got an idea for a beat.

-when you bought a kids radio shack keyboard off someone because it has general miidi and can be used as a controler (did dat b4 I got my microkontrol)

-when you ask chicks if they dj/make beats when you first meet them


Damn
Holmzini took all mines. Lol cause all those is me.
Lol

You know you make beats too much when you got a skeeza at the crib and you get head while makin beats cause you on a roll.

when your penis bounces to the beat by itself.

when your next door neighbor is banging on the wall all night.

when the police come to tell you to turn the music down but they hear it and ask if they can be in the video if i ever do one.

when you play a song for a girl and she asks you if you can beat her as good as you beat the mpc.

When You go to your guys house, and all he has is the OLD FL studio w/ the shitty presets but you bang out on it anyway.

[Like I said before] keyboards and MPC's start looking sexy and you stare @ them in some Samash magazine like it's playboy nshyt.

You have a big picture of a motif keyboard hung on your wall instead of a playboy centerfold

You hear one of the neptunes weaker pieces of work (light that ass on fire) in a room full of people and all of a sudden you go off on how all they just did was use a simple as drum pattern and put a flanger and a compressor over the fuckin beat. Then people be like "oh yeah, I bet you can't do it!"

 

[Phonetik]

Haahahahhhhaaa!!! that last one is the GREATEST! shea!
