hey, any peeps checked out this issue of Scratch with Kanye on the cover holding 5 albums, one of them being the cla**ic Marvin Gaye - Lets get it on vinyl?

I just got it yesterday.Read some interesting stuff in there.The last issue with Dre was really tight so I was pretty chuffed to get this one.I cant wait to peep stuff on Kanye and 9th.U seem to learn quite a bit in those few pages.

Btw, Nottz is one hectic producer........man, dude never rests.4 beats a day and they all keepers.Now thats hot.

Yep, Nottz on fire.
Haven´t had a chance to Peep that Kanye article yet. How about Chops in that same Dre issue (seems to be on the grind too).
I dig what Dre was saying
"If I can´t sit down with you, have dinner, crack jokes and bug out, there´s not point trying to make music together"...reminded me of all the cla**ic jokes at the end of tracks on The Chronic. +2001 (Quick! Put this **** behind your head, the Police are coming)!! :-]

TNG, u right there.Chops is too tight and Mountain Brothers man......Will never forget Turntable Mathematics (on another level.......just too darn short) and also Day Job.Chops the emcee and Chops the producer, he does it all with perfection.Imagine Chops and Charli2na on a track together.They got this similar booming voice which is so tight.And lyrically, they come correct.

Nottz man, all I´m saying "4beats a day and they all keepers".Thats hot.If Dre chose some of his tracks for his Final Opus, then u know he´s got something.Btw, just reread the answer Dre gave to the last question asked in that interview.Read it in its literal form and non-hip hop-ish.Man, I was cracking up when I read it.The last line in fact.He lays it down so tightly and eloquently and then blows it with the last line.If I had older peeps reading that, they´d be startled and confused.Almost like an antithesis. :-]

Yeah, but I´m sure u and Styalz aren´t as "Psycho" as Nottz bout the beats man.He´s madd intense.Its like he doesnt eat, sleep or drink anything.........he sweats beats.I think a little too much of something, especially something u luv, isnt all that good for u in the long run.

But hey, to each his own.I luv music, but I have other things as well that tickle my fancy and I gotta strike balances.Not there yet, but getting there.

And the Kanye West thread gets my 500th post.What man can I say!!!

So u serious Nyambz, u dont like making beats much?Ok, let get serious here now son.What r ur more pressing interests?I am sure one of them is music, but maybe thinking beyond the confines of the norm and looking to more emotionally charges epics with live instrumentation.....kinda David Axelrod-ish and the head honchos of the craft.

And I am sure its the more business side of things.I am guess possibly, u got other major interests that r so far removed from music that will peeps going  :-o .We all move and improve.One thing though, u may not like making the beats, but ur darn good at it.Sometimes ur brillient at something u dont really enjoy as much as something that u know ur not as good at, but u so much wanna be.

hey Fah, dont have any suggestion but I think whatever u come by of the dude, is pretty good any which way.Yeah, Chops is tight.Lyrically and flow wise he can hold his own among most out in the game.I´d actually luv to hear a solo of him just str8 spitting, like Kanye´s solo.Boards and mic.I think that would be some another level stuff.I´m serious.He´s too skilled.

He says he sampled himself on his Virtuosity album.Now thats tight.He was getting tired of sampling other peeps.Inventive.

Nyambz, I hear u on the stats of the biz.Its crazy and sick.I mean, u just gotta be headstrong, be connected and the rest is talk the talk.Talent doesnt even come into play as much as it used to.Which is sad.But yeah, I´ve reclined a bit to being the listener again.Peeps have rekindled my luv for just enjoying it as and outsider looking in.Though its not the same as it used to be, and I´m thankful in some ways......but I´m often too critical the way I listen though it does enhance my listening experience. :-D

I think u just gotta take a leaf outta peeps like Primo´s book.Doing it for the luv of it, but always on the grind.U eventually find that level ground, that perfect nook of comfort and balance.It comes with time.I think Primo and many others been in this position that u find urself in, many times.I know HIPE´s been there, but u keep pressing on cause u see that guiding light u wanna get to.That tunnel will light up soon.Forget the BS, focus on the positives and make that work for u.

Anybody know if Kanye is planning an SA tour?Would be cool if he brings Common along, John Legend and other close a**ociates from his newly established KonMan Entertainment label.

Btw, see John Legend is dropping his album soon off Columbia and in a**ociation with KonMan.Should be good as its being produced by Kanye and Legend.I see Legend dropped his surname Stephens for Legend as part of his stage name, given to him by J.Ivy.Entitled "get Lifted"......I am sure its gonna be good.
