Alchemist - Hold You Down vs. Jay-Z - Soon You'll Understand (Better use of sample)

[The G.O.D II]

Alec. He flipped it perfectly. The one in Jay-Z was just there and drones on for too long

 

[Microfracture]

One of Alchemists best beats, Soon You'll Understand can't touch it

 

[NVious]

Both songs are great, but Alchemist's is my pick.

 

[Danie84]

You know how I feel about Lord Camel, and I consider ALC the GOAT, but it was just something about Soon You'll Understand I liked more

...that's my Coli confession for the year

 

[Big Mel]

Alc was smashing one of those NINA broads if memory serves..

 

[Capo Dei Capi]

Alchemist
-coli

 

[Boolean]

The content on Soon You'll Understand makes it's sample better.

 

[FlyRy]

Apples and oranges. Ones a head nodder the other is a powerful song. I go with soon. Freshman year

 

[StretfordRed]

Alchemist all day

I find the vajay so g boring as he'll. regularly skip it. Sometimes I listen just for the Beanie verse

But the whole 1st. Infantry album was nuts.

 

[SoulController]

Just

never liked how short Al chopped it, beat always bothered me even when 1st Infantry came out

 

[LevelUp]

 

[Reptile]
