Good to see a lot of recent stuff... I guess.

Does no one know "Troy"?!

― djdee2005, Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Okay, I would be remiss if I didn't replace one of those Neptunes tracks with Grindin'.

― Jordan (Jordan), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:32 (twenty-two years ago)

i just tried to pick stuff i could imagine people rocking over for 30 or 40 minutes without me getting bored

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:33 (twenty-two years ago)

Who listens to a single hip-hop beat for 30-40 minutes straight?!

― djdee2005, Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

oochie wally is by ez elpee. i don't know anything about him.

― William Wiggins, Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Right on. No matter how long Ante Up is, it always feels too short.

― Jordan (Jordan), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:39 (twenty-two years ago)

No one's mentioned "Come Clean" by Jeru. The forerunner to "Grindin'" really.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:43 (twenty-two years ago)

people at ciphers

Usually the DJ will switch it up before it plays for 30 minutes. Esp. since that means they'd need two copies of the vinyl.

― djdee2005, Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Oooooh, Beatnuts - Break Off A Couple is fucking NIIIICE.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:45 (twenty-two years ago)

"It's Hot (Some Like it Hot)" is some good Jay-Z.
"No Exit" by Akinyele has some great stuff.
The "I Got Cha Opin (Remix)" is tight too.

― djdee2005, Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:48 (twenty-two years ago)

"Off the Books"
"Tables Will Turn"
"Shook Ones, Pt. 2"
"Bellydancer"

California Love - Dre/Pac
Rock the Bells - LL Cool J
Crossover - EPMD
Grindin' - Clipse
Ain't No Half Steppin' - Big Daddy Kane

again...kinda random but I like these all alot.

― M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:55 (twenty-two years ago)

i sort of picked ones that i love to hear people on, beats that i love to hear flows on, and ones that are popular for that purpose, rather than just hot instrumentals.

― William Wiggins, Tuesday, 16 March 2004 20:57 (twenty-two years ago)

Oooh, I really like Matt's list a lot.

― Broheems (diamond), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 21:03 (twenty-two years ago)

"its hot" would be a good choice for a timbo track, since i didn't list one, but "snoop track" is probably a better one (he really saves all his minimal hard beats for jay, or used to). from swizz probably something like "You Could Be Blind". From Dre maybe "Satisfaction"

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 21:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Also I like Alex in SF's list a lot.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 21:06 (twenty-two years ago)

i can't believe jess is the only one to mention 'top billin'

― oops (Oops), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 21:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Since I hate "all-time" lists, this is just the "first 5 to mind" list:

G-Unit - "Poppin Them Thangs" (Dre & Scott Storch)
Jaylib - "Champion Sound #18" (Jay Dee)
Quasimoto - "Axe Puzzles" (Madlib)
Mobb Deep - "Still Shinin'" (Havoc)

2. Pete Rock & C L Smooth - Straighten It Out
3. Company Flow - 8 Steps to Perfection
4. Latyrx - Lady Don't Tek No

Fat Pockets - Show and AG
Truly Yours - Kool G Rap (Marley Marl)

― oops (Oops), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:11 (twenty-two years ago)

oops otm with "psk"

i might change my timbaland vote to "it's hot" after all

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Holy crap. This is definitely subject to change. As of today:

Ghostface Killah, "Nutmeg"
Beastie Boys, "Stop That Train"
Jay-Z, "Nigga What, Nigga Who"
Ludacris, "What's Your Fantasy"
Cannibal Ox, "The F Word"

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:31 (twenty-two years ago)

gang starr "dwyck"

― dean! (deangulberry), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:34 (twenty-two years ago)

The synth bass in "The F Word" ruins it for me.

― oops (Oops), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:36 (twenty-two years ago)

(details: the Ghostface track is some dude named Arthur Wilson making I Can't Believe It's Not RZA goodness -- it flips this really maudlin/smooth slow jam lost-love Eddie Holman track and through the magic of pitchtweaking makes it sound like BLAAAOUW; the Beasties track is a chunk from that monster 12-minute Paul's Boutique final track and it samples this fuckin' great Southside Movement break, thank u dust bros.; the Hova and Luda beats [Timbaland and... Shondrae?] are the best super-up-tempo crunkulous postcoital shiver beats ever; the Can Ox beat is basically El-P playing Gary Numan, Porn Film Scorer, oops is insane and wrong)

― Nate in ST.P (natedetritus), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:40 (twenty-two years ago)

(possibly i am, but it has more to do with my intense dislike for digital bass, esp anything that reminds me of farts)

― oops (Oops), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:44 (twenty-two years ago)

Incredible Bongo Band - "Apache"

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Talib Kweli - "Get By" (Kanye West)
Ludacris - "What's Your Fantasy?" (Shondrae)
Notorious B.I.G. - "Respect" (Trackmasters)
Fabolous - "Can't Deny it" (Rick Rock)
Freeway - "All My Life" (Bink! aka Bink Dog)

Jess I don't know why you always rep for "VA Banger". I like weirdo super-mininal Neptunes too, but that one just sounds like crap.

― Al (sitcom), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:52 (twenty-two years ago)

relatively old-school...

slick rick-mona lisa
eric b + rakim-check out out my melody
audio two-top billing
main source-fakin the funk
pete rock + CL smooth-They Reminisce Over You

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 23:52 (twenty-two years ago)

The Coup - "Fat Cats, Bigga Fish"
High & Mighty - "B-Boy Document 99"

"general smugness."

― djdee2005, Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:36 (twenty-two years ago)

I consider this very specific smugness actually.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:37 (twenty-two years ago)

Whatever. At least now I know better than to raise an eyebrow about anything, ever.

― djdee2005, Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:39 (twenty-two years ago)

"Cuz the block got its eyebrows down, YAH HERRD MEH!?"

― djdee2005, Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:40 (twenty-two years ago)

rza - wu tang: 7th chamber pt 2: rza becomes even more sloppy = the best rza beat. check the squalling noise that kicks off ghost's verse

just blaze - what we do (free, jay and beans): the cushiest just blaze beat, best ever use of weird chromatic/phased ascending synth line

dj premiere - gangstarr's "work", because it's, yknow, the beat to "work"

mannie fresh - undisputed by cash money millionaires

havoc - i THINK it's "up north trip," it's the beat with the weird spiralling keyboard loop followed by a mournful guitar bend; i chose it because it was once stuck in my head viciously the first (and to date, last) time i worked on a commercial fishing boat in alaska and we had just transferred to a new district; the one we were in previously was grueling and i was reeling from it mentally, wondering about the next two weeks i would be out and in this alien environment, and just looking around the river we were in, at the houses on the banks with that loop stuck in my head, looking up at the sky with that bent note in my head and feeling relieved yet tired and apprehensive. if not up north trip then a song right before or after it

― hj, Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:45 (twenty-two years ago)

"Royalty" by Gang Starr is another one with some pretty awesome production, how one of the samples just does triplets throughout.

― djdee2005, Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Here's my current fave 5:
1-900-Hustler
G-Unit
Aunt Dot
Rubber Band Man
Murda Murda

― Sym (shmuel), Thursday, 18 March 2004 06:49 (twenty-two years ago)

currently, excluding earlier (and um, I know shit about hip-hop or beats, so...):

BDP - "9mm Goes Bang"
El-P - "Deep Space 9mm"
Ice Cube - "Down For Whatever"
Lauryn Hill - "Doo Wop (That Thing)"
Masta Ace - "Take A Walk"

― miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:28 (twenty-two years ago)

oh man I forgot all about "P is Still Free"

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:33 (twenty-two years ago)

wait, that was on Return of the Boom Bap, wasn't it? I meant the one on Criminal Minded.

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:34 (twenty-two years ago)

"Remix for P is Free"?

(actually, I'd never heard anything by BDP until this week)

― miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:41 (twenty-two years ago)

that whole album is great

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:45 (twenty-two years ago)

cept for the AC/DC sampling track. blech.

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:45 (twenty-two years ago)

Based on zero results in an ILM search, "Super-Hoe" is underrated. (Or under-talked about)

― miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:52 (twenty-two years ago)

I was just gonna mention "Super Hoe"! (is that how they spell it?)

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 18 March 2004 07:58 (twenty-two years ago)

On the MP3 I downloaded, yes.

"Scott LaRock is a ho, Scott LaRock is a super-ho!"

― miloauckerman (miloauckerman), Thursday, 18 March 2004 08:02 (twenty-two years ago)

sorry dj didn't mean to call you out so much as tease you and call rollie out -- for this line in particular:

"Considering this is a largely indie rock forum, you can't expect people to canonize their lists with "T.R.O.Y" (which
I've always thought is overrated) or with more obscure shit like, I dunno, "Jingle Jangle" by the Legion or "K.I.S.S" by Diamond D.
I mean, people are going to like what they like, you know, so stop trying to force your views on people like that, dude, you make
hip-hop smarts like you and I look like real assholes."

i disagree with you plenty, but you don't *grate* on me like that post or nothing.

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Thursday, 18 March 2004 10:30 (twenty-two years ago)

look kids jump really isnt worth getting so worked up about, if youve even listened to a funkmaster flex cd you know jump is a way canonised rap beat anyway, this thread has removed all of my enjoyment of the song and i scrap all of my choices except for left right left anyway because choosing 5 beats in the whole world is insane, the question is do you really even need to dig that deep in the crates to choose 5 amazing rap beats, i think the answer is NO

― jeremy jordan (cruisy), Thursday, 18 March 2004 12:29 (twenty-two years ago)

all the same could you please stop choosing the same 5 earnest beats as eachother?

― jeremy jordan (cruisy), Thursday, 18 March 2004 12:32 (twenty-two years ago)

i take that back cos my choices were boring too. i just got annoyed!

― jeremy jordan (cruisy), Thursday, 18 March 2004 12:42 (twenty-two years ago)

swv - right here
juelz santana - monster music
t la rock - breaking bells
david essex - rock on
er... i dunno

camron - shake

― prima fassy (mwah), Thursday, 18 March 2004 12:56 (twenty-two years ago)

oh i know yeah mark spekt - no dessert til u finish yr vegetables (big juss rmx)!

― prima fassy (mwah), Thursday, 18 March 2004 12:57 (twenty-two years ago)

I'm being stupid, but what do we mean by 'beat'? Upthread there's talk of synth noises and stuff...

― Strachey, Thursday, 18 March 2004 12:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Sterling, I'd say you're one person who has recontextualized pretty much everything I've said on this board. I don't see why what I'm saying is awful, it's realistic. You wouldn't expect an indie rap board to be mentioning like Slint or My Bloody Valentine, right? I'm not saying that this doesn't happen because in both circles, there are lots of people who know about each genre. But still, I was thinking that might be a simple reason that people haven't been putting up the shit that dj dee has been expecting to see, I guess.

Or are you implying that this board doesn't lean more to indie rock? Cause I agree that it's a big melting pot, but I'm saying if you blindly click, you'll get more indie rock than anything else.

Or was it just the term 'hip hop smarts' that 'grated' on you so much?

You've really got it out for me, Clover. WE COULD BE FRIENDS ONE DAY

I would also like to add "The Sound of the Police" by KRS-One.

― Rollie Pemberton (Rollie Pemberton), Thursday, 18 March 2004 17:23 (twenty-two years ago)

"hip hop smarts"!

― Sterling Clover (s_clover), Thursday, 18 March 2004 17:40 (twenty-two years ago)

Hahahahaha I totally missed that! "Baby, I like you. You've got 'hip hop smarts.'"
