You can’t see me!
I'm glad I know how to find things on the internet.
Call it practical. I can find 99% of samples on funky town, funkmysoul, neverenoughrhodes or vinyl frontier. Why would I get my fingers dusty?![]()
I call it being cheap af
1. The history, being able to connect with producers of the past. DJ'ing/Turntablism is one of the foundations of hip-hop. And don't give me that "Serrato CD scratching" bullshyt, because it sounds nothing like a guy who knows what he's doing on a Tectonic 1200.
2. You already answered your own question, you buy vinyl because labels have been pulling their shyt offline. As Madlib says, "It's getting hard to find the fat plastic, but I got my stacks in case it gets drastic."
3."I can find 99% of samples" no you can't. And you don't crate dig, so how would you even know. You can find a lot of famous samples, or expensive records online. But that's not why I shop for records. There's dollar bin records that nobody knows about that still have heat on them.

I still have a CD with BP on it to this day. Pulled into the gas station last night bumping Song CryBlueprint is the most essential Hip-Hop album of the 2000's IMO.
It's 1 of the earliest rapalbums that i played out. It never gets old.
