Necro's cool in small doses, he's got some good shit though. This is always good for a laugh and fits in with the hip hop covers thing.

 

Some more trivia. The man on that album cover is Necro's and Ill Bill's uncle "Howie".

Did someone say Premier?

 

This is one reason rap today sucks, the producers and beats have no personality. Premo's beats had so much personality. I hear a beat today and people say oh that's a hot beat, shit it sounds just like the past 100 rap beats. Premier and them didn't just make hot beats, they made landscapes for their mc's...

This might be my favorite Premier beat. The R Kelly sample was genius.

 

Live from Bedford Stuyvesant the livest one...almost every syllable in that rhymes and follows a unique flow :lol:  Another example of insane rhyming if you really sit down and work it sound it's so fuckin' intricate, is Lose Yourself by Em', if you're a rhyme fanatic and bored enough, count the rhymes, work out the rhyme schemes, the way one skips a rhyme but then picks it up in the following line because the line before is rhyming with the one before the following line...if that makes sense :lol:  It's like a tapestry of rhymes and semi rhymes and all to this steady beat of syllables, thats fuckin' prodigious talent, disgusting talent.

Therein lies the difference between a flow, a real flow and just rattling off rhymes machine gun style (which in itself can be patterned but a lot of these pretenders don't do it to a pattern, which even if you don't is still amazing but what a Biggie Smalls or a Ra' or an Em' does it distinctly musical in flow as well as the beat being flowed to).
