Haven't watched yet, don't care what folks say, but that Amil album is nice..:wow:.... also he didn't produce Parking Lot Pimpin'. That was Rick Rock, along with Change the Game.

great interview, but Just Blaze is clearly lying about the "girls girls girls" shyt. He said he made that beat in 2000 for Ghostface and then sat on it for a year. Jay Z recorded Blueprint in 2001 maybe 5 or 6 months before its release. If you listen to the beats Just Blaze made and were released in 2000 or even anything in 2001 prior to the release of Bluprint, it sounds nothing like Girls, You don't know, or song Cry. He was sampling a bit and most of his stuff sounded like Swizz Beatz knockoff keyboard beats, but then he changed overnight. Bink's story is believable. Bink said Just Blaze heard what he and Kanye were doing on Blueprint and switched his style up. If you don't believe it, listen to his production PRIOR to Blueprint and then after. So yes, this was a great interview, but he's fukking lying.

here is just a sample of his style prior to Blueprint






Now listen to a small sample of Bink prior to Blueprint





Just Blaze is still great, but he needs to just admit the obvious and stop lying. No way he made that Girls Girls track in 2000

when you're in the studio working on a song, it's 3 people you turn that shyt off when they walk in.. Just Blaze, Master P, and Ice Cube.

I would add Jermaine Dupri.

Because he's gonna leave and then go home and do his version of whatever you're making, lol. That dude would make a bootleg version of your artist or group in a heartbeat!

I clearly said he was sampling in the time, but even that doesn't sound like the songs he did on Blueprint and beyond.
I'd say those are some of his favorite drums and drum patterns that he started to use during his soul sample run

And tbh each song he did on the Blueprint sound totally different from each other. Outside them being soul samples, if you told me Girls, U Don't Know, And Song Cry had different producers I would think nothing of it.

Kinda playing devil's advocate but.....isn't it possible that Just is telling the truth simply because if he was imitating other producers it stands to reason that Song Cry could have been an imitation of something in 2000? Maybe RZA, who knows. I don't think it's crazy to assume he was creating shyt in all types of styles but the ones that got placements pre-Blueprint were the ones that were most in vogue with the times. IE Swizz shyt. So that's what people were picking instead of the Song Cry shyt.
