Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[s0lefunk]

I didn’t jump on the MF Doom bandwagon till Mad Villainy then I went back and listened to his old discography. I was big on CD then and went out of my way to hunt for a copy of Doomsday which had stopped printing by then.

The dudes production was low key unappreciated. Ghost jumped on several of his beats after listening to Doom’s Special Herb collection:

I definitely wasn’t following DOOM back then. I only really started listening to some of his stuff these past couple years.

Should have known future album was mid. The promo was nonexistent. This must have been one of them label fulfillment then re-structure me before I drop the real album.

 

[SC kid]

I’ve always seen it as that east coast sound was inspired by soul music/motown , real instrumentation off grainy vinyl. Whereas the west coast sound was more inspired by electronic funk, a lot of synths and effects.

Nah, because the east coast was also using Parliament, Bootsy, Zapp and James Brown before Dre. EPMD, Public Enemy and X-Clan used funk. A bunch of producers just didn't do it, because it was no bitting allowed and hiding sample usage because of lawsuits became a thing.

In 2026 you get more attention for what you say rather than your actual music.
