Besides... think about it.. can we really appreciate NAS if he had a album full of Erick Sermon early 90s funk tracks.. It doesnt fit his style..

It could be argued that Nas production held him back from being bigger. A thicker more layered production sound might have given him more crossover appeal outside of NY...

he said 4321 was pretty much Put My Hands.. with the pattern/layout/etc.

He used Put My Hands...as the basis to make 4321

yep, he also used dre and ice cube- natural born killaz as the basis to make How high. i dont hear the similarities there either

the similarities in 4321 was the shakers in the drums & the drum pattern and the bass stabs followed the bassline of Put Your Hands.

he must be talking about this version of How High


you can hear a similarity to NBK, especially the bassline and drums again. i can def see how E Dub could take inspiration from those songs & make his own joints

Its just the answer overall im confused with. That you're literally serious. But whatever.
The process of the modern man:
1. Google Empd billboard
2. Observe the first result
3. Go to the chart you are interested in, Billboard 200.

And voila, it's not rocket science.

Nas on "Natradamus" lead single spit over an entire EPMD song


I'm talking about an actual Erick produced track.. not using the same sample



i need to fix my ear for music. Where are the similarities? what am i looking for?


Its there.. its pretty much the tempo and the drum sounds.. Funny I hear it now that he said something... start by following the "shakers" (whatever that sound is) focus on that then you'll start to hear the similarities


damn e double got me listening to 4321 again


MAkes me wanna here the original version track masters produced... I can only imagine how horrible it was.. and I wonder what was the order

the similarities in 4321 was the shakers in the drums & the drum pattern and the bass stabs followed the bassline of Put Your Hands.

Funny because to me this version is the original because that the versionI heard first from the Show Soundtrack... somewhere the fly robin version became the new origianl and this turned into the remix
