I saw this crazy documentary about gangs in rio...
Shyt was bananas yo! Those kids there even have ROCKET LAUNCHERS! Yes you heard right :shock: Commanda Velera Un gang members or whatever they called....

I didn't know before police just drives around and kills anyone if they belong to the gangs. Just like that. During the daytime in the streets. Thats some sad and gully stuff. These people struggle HARD.

also remember TCHAIKOVSKY IS CONSIDERED A MASTER SO THERE ARE MANY VERSIONS OF THIS PIECE.....................



yup

"Completed in 1892, Tchaikovsky’s entertaining masterpiece is one of the most popular pieces ever created for ballet"

there's probably a gazillion different recordings of it by now.

also, the same sample was used on a skit in common's resurrection.

but yeah the beat (represent) has got to be one of my fave premier beats

dope stuff!

between "book of life" and "in my own world"

i had to go to find my resurrection to listen to it again, and yes it does sound like it's the same sample.

youre right its very close, i never picked up on that even though they are two of my favroite albums. but i think the common skit is gary burtons las vegas tango? if you have that record in your crates (gary burton's good vibes LP) check it out.

nah, i've got some of his albums but i don't have that one. the vibe of the samples is very similar so i always thought primo just eq'd and filtered it a little differently..

but yeah you could be right. i'll have to check the beats out side by side



oh snap, i just realised i haven't listened to illmatic in ages... time for a trip down memory lane!

I've always wondered why people are so interested in what records other producers sampled. Are yall just curious? Do you look for these records? Do you avoid these records?

Typically, if one of the "greats" has used a record...that artist's other works are good...But, we also read the names of the featured artists on the record. They usually have some goods too...

I Think People who Purposely aviod a Record because someone sampled it DON'T understand DIGGIN'.......................


KNOW YOUR NAMES


Name OF Title Artist
Name OF Drummer
Name OF Bassist
Name OF Arranger/Writer/Composer
Name OF Label ETC.................

You Start to Realize that OH?!!!? Polygram/Polydor Got FIRE!!!!!!!!!!

or MARK CLARK Or RON CARTER Are Sick On their Choosen INSTRUMENT and this IS A Big Part OF DIGGIN'..............................

I Once Sent A Cat New To DIGGIN' to One OF MY 5 FAVORITE DIGGIN SPOTS...................................

The RESULT :?: ....................

He Came Back Puzzled...................... :shock:

So Out Of Jus' Pure Curiosity I Headed There The Next Day And BOOM I Found A MINT VG++ Original Copy OF KING KONG FOR $4.00 Plus SOME JOHN BARRY n JOHN CARPENTER FOR LIKE $2.00 AND I MEAN THESE ARE MINT!!!!!!!!!!!

IN FACT THE JOHN BARRY WAS SEALED!!!!!!! :!: :!: :!: :!:

The Point IS He Went IN There Lookin For .............(Get Pens And PAPER)
:lol:

THE METERS
THE OHIO PLAYERS
KOOL & THE GANG
FUNKADELIC
MANDRILL
ISSAC HAYES
BARRY WHITE

AND OTHER FUNK OR SOUL AND DID NOT KNOW The NAME OF THE ARTIST That were There That I Mentioned Above and So IN his Mind there Was Nothing But Worthless Pieces of Plastic..........................


Also.............

Lets NOT BE DAFT HERE IF Someone samples a record that does not mean I Won't Sample it .......................IT MEANS THIS.................

I WON'T SAMPLE THE SAME SAMPLED PART ........UNLESS I DO A SERIOUS CHOP!!!!!!!!!!!!
