i like the beat better than most of MBDTF and it's a good look for lex luger i think but wow the rapping is dire. who is kanye trying to ape in the first verse?
― lex diamonds (lex pretend), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 15:25 (thirteen years ago) link
good beat. bad rapps. lex luger is a great producer.

god this sounds like one of those things where some random internet guy raps over a real beat and uploads it to napster as "NEW KANYE/JAY-Z"
― max, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 16:32 (thirteen years ago) link
the beat is not redeeming either of them. it makes everything worse. i'm sure its pretty great on it own but the whole package is insufferable
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 16:35 (thirteen years ago) link
in fairness this is exactly what happened; it's only a coincidence that it's actually Kanye and Jay-Z
― Indolence Mission (DJP), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 16:36 (thirteen years ago) link
people who act like Lex Luger is a great producer are fronting harder than people who act like Jay and Kanye are still great rappers imo
lol @ Kanye trying to doubletime for practically the first time in his career, and still filling a bunch of bars with grunting "HAHHH"

― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 17:53 (thirteen years ago) link
You both are right to an extent -- lex proved himself to be more creative than maybe a lot of us thought, but ppl aren't trying to get "grove st party" beats from him. Everyone wants "bmf" and now we're on like the the 56th incarnation of that beat

the second half of this sentence went off the rails somewhere, i don't even understand it
yeah poorly worded but it makes sense if u parse it -- sayin u are in denial that your initial reaction to lex being an overrated one-dimensional producer is wrong
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Tuesday, 11 January 2011 18:44 (thirteen years ago) link
i gues this isn't really my biznass but if there's one thing that i really admire about al it's his ability to -- seemingly -- not hold grudges & in a way evaluate songs/albums as if previous works by the artist didn't exist

Man. Both Nas/Lil Jon collabs that I know of are awesome.
Anyway, the beat is awesome and al is mad, Kanye sucks, the classical bits suck, Jay is ok.

i don't think the beat on h.a.m is good at all. it's got no knock, would sound pretty unremarkable on a mixtape. kind of imagine lex luger rolling his damn eyes @ jay z and kanye wanting to make a retarded attempt at high art & probably making 100 grand or whatever ppl get paid for jay z beats for adding an opera sample to something he had prepared for a french montana mixtape cut
― flopson, Tuesday, 11 January 2011 22:27 (thirteen years ago) link
I just figured the opera was Kayne's meddling.

Don't get why you've latched on to "Grove St. Party" as a standout, maybe my least favorite song on Flockaveli.

let's not play armchair psychologist about whose stated opinions are honest and who's living in a funhouse mirror world of denial, okay? i mean he's got some good beats that don't sound like his 2 big hits on Flockaveli, but i don't think it's too crazy to say hey let's pump the brakes on "great producer" until he has a 3rd hit or shows some serious versatility or consistency.
― men are from mars, bruno has no penis (some dude), Wednesday, 12 January 2011 01:27 (thirteen years ago) link
if u want me to say southside on the track is a better producer i agreebut i think hes established dude has skills, he produced the bulk of flockaveli which is already being considered a classic ... if thats all he ends up doing hes carved a spot for himself
― ich bin ein ilxor (deej), Wednesday, 12 January 2011 01:31 (thirteen years ago) link
yes, that's exactly what i want you to do, i want you to say that someone i've never heard of is a better producer, you read my mind

Question for people who know things about major label machinations...re: this: http://pitchfork.com/news/45713-jay-z-and-kanye-west-settle-syl-johnson-lawsuit/How could that album have ever come out with such a prominent sample uncleared? Aren't there entire legal departments that make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen, or is there a point where labels at that level go "eh - let's see what happens"?
― Walter Galt, Monday, 12 March 2012 13:10 (twelve years ago) link
i don't know if it makes a difference, but that was one of the songs from the G.O.O.D. Fridays series back almost a year before WTT dropped, and was only on the deluxe edition of the album. so maybe they just threw it on as a bonus track at the last minute and didn't go through the usual process with it? i agree that that's surprising, though. last month Tyga's album almost got pulled from stores because his dumb ass put an uncleared sample of Martin Luther King Jr. on the album.
