Title: H.A.M. - Kanye West / Jay Z prod Lex Luger
Post by: AGMilitia on January 11, 2011, 02:57:26 PM
Just heard the track.  Very stale if you ask me.  I'm certain Kanye was utilising Tech 9's "huh's".   Sounded very familiar.
So much hype over this track and mixed reactions over the net. 
I don't think one needs a trained ear to realise this is just horrible.  Maybe I'm getting too old but what is happening out there? Geez 
What did you guys think of it?

It's horrible. That beat? Rubbish. Them raps? nothing new.

i like the Lex Luger beat. makes me imagine myself in a cobalt suit, sitting at a table drinking peach cognac and carving a roast with masons.

it's so evil!  ;D

rap music is no longer 'good' music.

was it ever?

it's honest music. America is an extremely f***ed up place. these two have reached the 'top' as far as black men go in the states. and they document in their raps, why, how, and what it cost them.

they could lie and project who they wish they could be, but it would be doing everyone a disservice. 

my 2 cents.

I hear what you're saying, and I guess the beat is a preference thing.

It still won't get a second bump from me tho. I honestly didn't like it at all.

Yeah it is, Lex Luger be his name. Siz (from Yfm, Live! and MTVBase fame) said that this dudes beats are all sounding the same lately. First time I hear his name so I wouldn't know.

First, second and third listen didn't really impress me much on the PC. I wanna bump it in the whip for final verdict.

But I gotta say Jay goes in on his verse, even though he's on the same flossing, bragging cliches. The beat is mediocre for me.

Here's a free download for those who don't have the track:

This is not the real cover but its much better than the original so that says a lot! I cant see anyone taking this record seriously now really.  haha

come on, cats. you're telling me even the part where the chorus kicks in doesn't move you? even a little.  you have no soul.

or actually, you have too much soul.

anyway, Lex Luger is only like 20 or something and this is his own sound. i think that counts for something.

I have no problem with Lex Luger, he's just starting and at his age he's already making gains having done work with Rick Ross, Slim Thug etc.  I received a batch of his beats that he's currently selling and that shit is on point.  The issue I'm trying to highlight though is specifically the track H.A.M. Kanye and Jay Z sound out of place on this beat.  Juicy J, DJ Paul or Rick Ross or the like on a Lex Luger beat works, while I have my doubts about Kanye or Jay Z on this style of production, Kanye specifically sounded awkward on this making it sound odd. The end is rather corny as well.  Happy though that the hype around this has died. #justsaying

Y'all heard the remix of H.A.M with Busta Rhymes on it? Dude KILLED IT! Think it was released yesterday. Don't think it's official - think he just layed a verse on the same song and put it out there. He shuts those two down properly and almost makes the song tolerable, until Kanye starts rapping...SMH...

Just realised...the flipmode bot is no more ne?
