The GOAT Nasir with a rare mistake

"Leaking like Henny through plastic cups"

I'm sure he meant paper cups on The Foulness part 2

Lol, I've seen Hennessy and other liquor chew through plastic cups as well ..that isn't inaccurate.

Nas on Take It In Blood, he says "snakes slither like Sharon Stone" The name of the movie he was referring to is Sliver, not slither.

That's a good call

One obvious one recently was Kendrick's Joel Osteen line

Chamillionare talking about the Governor of Galveston

Im more inclined to believe hes referring to her career defining scene in Basic Instinct but you could also be right...

I posted this over 10 years ago on a music engineer forum about mistakes in songs never fixed

eric b & rakim - "step back" : at 1:22, rakim is rhyming and the whole track just mutes and then continues. I dont know the reason for this and i'm sure the only person that does is the guy that mixed the album.

method man w/raekwon - "meth vs chef" : during raekwon's verse, it's obvious he messes up and just keeps going and messing up even more but they keep it in the song.

craig g - "ready set begin" : this is a 2003 track produced by primo. the beat begins normal, then after about 20 seconds or so, the pitch of the sample changes and stays that way through the rest of the song.

raekwon - "criminology" - at the end of the song, the hook is going and it is very much off beat with the drums playing and sounds off when the loop restarts.

gang starr - "capture" - on the last verse, bumpy knuckle's verse is horrible. i don't know how primo and eddie sancho didn't notice this. they were peaking like crazy thru the whole thing.

a tribe called quest - "can i kick it" : the first time the sample restarts, it's off beat. the problem doesn't happen again for the rest of the song.

epmd - "it's my thing" : at 2:41 during the hook, the track sounds like someone was flirting with the pitch of the sample constantly. i think the reason for this may be for the way they used to sample. they exposed this in interviews and on their Unsung show of how they had tape wrapped around the room for more sample time..

jeru - The Sun Rises in the East entire album : tony dawsey has mastered a lot of hip hop classics, but i feel he dropped the ball on this one. i first bought this album while still in high school when it came out in 1994. i bought it again in 1998. the album was mastered at an extremely low level that you have to crank the volume of your car/home stereo to borderline max levels. never understood why this album was never remastered. strangely, the mp3s i have downloaded of this album online don't have the problem.

gza - "investigative report" - at the beginning of the song, when gza says "here we go", the lady begins to speak and the sample of her dialogue is restarted when she began. don't know why rza didnt fix that
