I just could not sit still anymore. Man is it really that hard to make music that you can feel? I would not even waste my time with a battle with neither one of those beats. The problem is you guys are looking at this thing as a beat.Not as a producer. A beat to what? What is your shit saying before one lyric is on the track. If you want to make original tracks what kind of chord progression do you have. Check out Scarfaces (Sex Faces )and( I never seen a man die)Check out Kurupts ( We can Freak it) produced by BattleCat. Check out some old Spice 1,Paris,Conscoius Daughters,Digital Undergroud,Too Short or anything in during the ninties from the Bay.What about some old 2 Pac( Brendas got a baby,Dear Mama, Crazy ).Now thats the kind of original music that I thought you was coming with. When I heard that shit, I thought to myself I will get my 12 year old to teach him some chord progression.Man I am thirty four years old so I know what the hell I am talking about. I was bouncing my head to Easy E and NWA when these little n-ggas was suckin on titties. Like I said before Sampling is the foundation for this hiphop shit. This hiphop and this music is not a game to me. So do not dis respect hiphop with some bullshit beats and some bullshit rhymes. It is amazing to see people with 50 thousand dollars worth of equipment but when you hear their shit it sounds like some pots and pans. Dead lifeless,music. If you think about it people from overseas respect hiphop more than we do here in the US. they know the culture,the lifestyle and the elements of HipHop. Alternative Rock uses samples and old breakbeats in their shit.Techno artists like Daft Punk,Armand Van Helden,Paul Oakenfold use a lot of sampling in their music. So what I guess I'm trying to say is, MR GUNSHOTS don't know what **** he's talking about. I hate to be so blount but these young n-ggas need to get schooled.This is why most of these people can not make good music. They spend more time on a forum than in the zone. I know I will get some hate mail but who gives a shit. I'm a real n-gga,and I state what is real and the truth to the fake. Any rappers that want to get ate up let me know too........PS ,that don't look like a MPC 4000 to me ,that looks like a 2500........

I'm from down south.Memphis ,Tn home of Crunk music as a matter fact and the Three Six. Three 6 is doing thats cool because they started Crunk music. The Atl caught on and now they are doing it. Know every body is trying to make all of this same **** because they think they are going to be the next Three 6 Mafia. Let me repeat, Crunk was started here in the M.... you know get buck back in 1991. Skinny Pimp, Ska face Al Kapone, 8 Ball & MJG ,etc. Like I said I'm from Memphis and I love my people here but all this meaningless music has to stop. When I think of Crunk I think thats some **** for those little kids to hop around to. For somebody like my 16 year old nephew that **** is fine but for a man that **** is childish. I hear this guy **** on sampling . I hear a lot of guys especially on that other site **** on sampling. The truth be known ,sampling is the foundation for this rap/hip hop music. Sampling is why this music has gone this far. I will be truthful I am not a piano player but every Crunk song that is out now I can remake it. Thats because the notes are the same,note after note. My 12 year old can make beats like some of this **** on the radio. Before you dis the craft learn about the history of the craft before you call yourself a master beatmaker. As a matter fact I take that back because beatmakers and rappers go well together. I'm a producer and I hang with lyricists.
peace, Ground Zero
