We know Nas is gonna come correct 
But it's Premo that we need to worry about. Most his shyt sound dated

Nas & Premier Album "DJ Premier Needs to Come Correct because Pete Rock and Q Tip is Bringing Heat to Common & LL"
- Thread starter Waterproof
- Start date
It's the formulaic approach to his beats that had me cool on Preme's beats for years. Lazy drum programming is by far my biggest gripe,the ever present stabs and the scratched hook,we get it. If you go back,his most revered beats are sample loops/flips and drums that were cleverly laid under them, variation in time signatures from clever breaks/sample chopping,full loops chopped creatively. Totally got away from that cause of clearance/pub issues. Pete Rock is the superior producer to me cause he has way more range and this album with Common further proves my point that Preem can't actually carry an entire project with his current creative take on production,it will sound dated and formulaic.

Once guys start getting projects rolling in like rza prino do, you see they go in the studio and make what they make and thats it. Real fast. They dont put the proper time in hand crafting tracks any longer.
Primo in fact never did. He made a beat for guys but onlu one. If you didnt take it thats all you get. So that was always his thing. Prolly reason hes not rza level tbh because tjose early rza tracks were made with no rhyme or reason over years, and then aet aside for each guy as needed instead of just making set tracks and no more. Im sure gangstarr was a diff process.
But the modern primo process. Hed have to make beats non stop for 3 months and pick alm the best. I dont see them doing that sadly.
Qtip isnt that style of producer. His tracks he works on them forever. Its why i atleast give kanye credit he works very hard on getting things right and will redo a song 20x.

You must have listened to a bootleg version in Olde English.
Album is hot fiyah. It's the type of album you could play around any group and not feel uncomfortable.
AOTY. Beats are fresh. Lyrics and delivery are not complex, overly preachy, but energetic positive rhymes. Needed something like this for 2024.
Even this 25 year old hip hop reviewer says it AOTY

Auditorium was one the best projects this year. I got a good feeling Premo will come through for Nas.
