i wasent coming at u personally its just some folks in this thread are acting like they never laughed at a micheal jackson or shabba ranks joke...

i feel you on the barbor thing
but honestly i like that man, i like going in the shop and clowing around with cats talking bout busted fades, mishaped heads etc....

Thats an experince that most people outside the urban black american communitity dont understand. The barbershop is like home, i like to go in there even when i dont need a cut just to chill, as a matter fact i just got back from the shop watching the jones tarver fight and cats were clowing tavrers head lol

I know that he uses the MPC 3000 but of late it seems like he's moved away from using samples and is more into using synthesizers. Anyway I would like to get any info on equipment used by him, studio videos, etc. One of the most under-rated producers in the game.
Holla back, bless.


He uses:
MPC3000, Mbox with Powerbook, Microkorg, Korg Electribe, Mixer, Turntables and records
Check Behind the Beat book
Peace

not quite the point, ,i believe a lot of cats here believed that comment ,which was meant to be a joke, was like a college in summer.

NO CLASS

making fun of how people look is an inbuilt phsycological testosterone defect / deficiency/ or imbalance espcially, in the way it was done. i personally looked at the pic, making an analysis of my actions, and said "he looks like chris rock" then i continued to look at the studio, and gear trying to read the name of the keyboard in the back, at no point in time did it occur to me about his maculinity, gender, looks or anything of that nature.
if you say someone is "ugly" then you have a concept in your head of what beautiful looks like, or handsome in this case, hence not fitting your personal view of being aesthetically pleasing.
