I rate 9th a lot as a producer. One of my favourites. But he's work on Jay's Threats was a shocking example of copy my homework and dont change anything.

Personally I don’t see a problem with how old the sample is. The problem is they’re going back and sampling Hip Hop songs and not doing a damn thing with the sample. There’s millions of songs of other genres from 1998 or 2004 to sample from but they’re just using a Hip Hop song and making another hip hop beat out of it. The whole point of sampling is usually to take something and make something ELSE out of it.
People said the same thing during the first, second, and third wave of sampling

nikkas are just going to complain about something

Only 2 years apart and this is one of CNN's best songs. The time ain't the problem...the level of talent is :manny:


that's completely different, the sample is a score from a movie, 9th is talking about cats sampling songs that were already Hip Hop beats and are not changing anything except adding trap style drums.
