Survival video

[4Corners]

I enjoy some of his stuff, but classic and timeless records??? Compare Kanye's supposed classics to real hip hop classics lie Illmatic, MMLP, Reasonable Doubt, Me Against the World....it doesn't even compare and shouldn't be held in the same conversation IMO.

As a producer, sure....Kanye is great. Though I feel he struggles making GREAT beats without samples. Like 9 times out of 10 it's a beat with a sample. I still wouldn't rate him with Premier or Dre status as far as great hip hop producers.

^I agree. I like Kanye's work, but his not among the greatest.

[skc_]

wtf???
drips & under the influence both are great!

[Drax207]

Under the Influence indeed is great ! But something's definitely wrong with Drips for me ... I wish it was replaced with Stimulate.

[Drax207]

Okay, just listened to it and I think the problem with me is the hook. Kinda getting on my nerves

[SpiderDiaze]

I'll tell you something, Survival is better than Steve Berman on MMLP.

I just watched this video again.

Y'all have no idea of how much I like to see Blonde Em nowadays. It's nostalgic, new (I became an Em fan in 09, so I never 'witnessed' him blonde. I don't know if I made myself clear) and badass at the same time. It's awesome as fuck.

Complaining about samples then saying Premier's better… well done, dickhead.

You do realise how hip-hop started, right? You do understand that sampling is effectively what hip-hop production was built on from the very beginning?

spot on king SG

[Kill You]

Premier uses samples all up in his production, wow.

Not at all

[the real slim shady]

Good video, butchered by all the cod stuff on it, I'm a Stan and I don't approve.

[4Corners]

Obviously Premier uses samples, almost every producer does. But he's done great records without samples many times. Kanye made a career using samples in, literally every song.

And what exactly is the problem with that?
