did you post that to prove he's a good digger or not?
I assume not, because that just shows he samples well-known hits, anyone could find those records anywhere

MGStudios, stop sucking Kanye's dick - I can't stand his music (or his voice) but I'll admit he has some talent (he makes far better beats than me) but he's NOT a good digger. he's either lazy or he isn't interested in using obscure samples and knows that using a popular hit will help him sell.

I dont think anyone meant that kanye is not a good beat maker.... I think the point was that he is not great at digging. Dude makes money for sure, but his beats are just not results of finding amazing samples and flipping them since he doesn't really find anything nor does he flip anything... he grabs loops from songs that don't even need finding and tosses drums on top.

self respect :P

I make all the money I need from my job, I wouldn't make that much if I tried to make music professionally. I'm not trying to sell records to kids with no taste and get played on shit radio stations, I only do it for my own enjoyment, not for anyone else or any other reason

exactly

this is the diggers forum - this thread is about amazing diggers - if you want to talk about Kanye go to the Kanye Dick Sucking forum, he's off topic in this thread
