do you remember the 1st time you heard clipse's grindin'?

[Jigganaut]

I was posting on SOHH when that shyt first came out.

 

[Pop123]

Same with "Ruff Ryders anthem", during the first listen there's the "yo, this is the illest shyt ever" moment

 

[the cac mamba]

Malice the deeper and more complete rapper. but he ain't touching Pusha's one liners.

"I put this on my Lord, my niece was four when she felt chinchilla"

"I'm the best since he died and he lied The spirit of competition, one verse can start jihad"

yo i was bumpin this (fukkin classic) track the other day

is he talkin about biggie and wayne? that was my guess

 

[Sccit]

I THOUGHT THE BEAT WAS INCREDIBLY BASIC AND THAT ANYONE ALIVE COULDA MADE IT .. JUST BASIC DRUM PATTERN W NO ADDITIVES. I DINT GET IT AT FIRST .. LOOKIN BACK, ITS HIP-HOP DOIN WHAT HIP-HOP DO. SURPRISED MORE CATS AINT TRY TO JOCK THAT STYLE N RELEASE JOINTS OVER BASIC DRUM LOOPS AFTER THAT POPPED.

Yep!

Funny thing is you can find the exact sound on the old korg triton...as a preset

The Neps stayed using Triton presets before everyone realized and tried to bite their style

Not sure who used presets more, them or Swizz

 

[raoulduke187]

[DoubleClutch]

[WavyHair ChippedTeeth]

Was a young brat when I 1st heard it. I was like

That beat is the sole reason I've stanned Clipse/Pusha's whole career - I've seen all the ups and downs.

 

[Menelik II]

Both of them flexed on the track, prose and quotables.

Because you gotta rap your ass off. Welcome to the 90's

When grinding dropped the game was so flossy so it was definitely a shift. Everyone was talking about the song and video. The impact was huge. The song stood out and made people take notice.

 

[SirBiatch]

"From ghetto to ghetto, to backyard to yard..." KILLED the joint from the opening line.

When you get a raw ass beat, you gotta go in raw.

 

[Complexion]

My grinds about family, never been about fame...

 

[OHSNAP!]
