Sadat X Speaks On Hip-Hop Having A Certain Vibe Before Rappers Were Emailing Vocals

[nieman]

I think that is one thing that's changed that you really can't recapture. Just think back on all of the great studio stories we've heard over the years; artists vibing off of each other for that perfect track; or the hilarity behind why "such and such" didn't appear on the song. I don't think the lack of it is completely ruining it, but it certain does hurt the end product.

These dudes can fly or hop a train for some BS, then they could certainly go chill with someone for a couple of hours, vibe, and make great music.

Sadat is the epitome of a washed up bitter rapper.

That's pretty stupid of you to say as he's pretty much the opposite of that. In fact he clowns on older hating ass dudes in this interview.

We're gonna act like rappers don't spend any time in the studio anymore....This generation of rappers hasn't had enough time to let their music/age enough to get to the point where people are interested in the makings of their best work.

you'll probably have all sorts of great stories for the makings of College Dropout,GRDOT,Carter 3,Trap Muzik,GKMC etc. when it comes time to reflect on those albums.

I've always been wondering what exactly they're emailing each other

if it's mp3s ... I guess the sound quality of even the master recordings is weak

.wav uncompressed breh

how exactly? where are they storing these huge files? you can't send 100s of mb wavs as email attachments

I hope you're right though

you think cats is that stupid?

lol theres a variety of ways. regular upload sites like the ones we off everyday..or options like Dropbox make it easy to collab from afar.

 

[LionofJudah]

I wouldn't feature or work with anybody that I can't vibe in the studio with, fukk that. Bring the 90's back...

Most studios are using Dropbox now.

But yeah, much respect to Sadat. Brand Nubian's One for All was one of the very first albums I ever owned as a kid. I haven't stopped listenin' to that album since then. It's still perfect. People slept on his Wild Cowboys album. He had some dope production on that.

I'd say Sadat's a legend. He's just on too many classic albums, not to be. Low End Theory, Stunts, Blunts & Hip Hop, One for All, etc. This cat was such a presence during what I think were Hip Hop's best years. Nothin' but mad respect for that dude, and I'm happy to see he has new work droppin' soon.

 

[Big Mel]

Education & Experience, Black October, Generation X were all quality too.

Even Wild Cowboys 2 & his Brand New Bein' album had some cuts.


But I've always been big on Sadat. He's one of the true originals.

 

[360dagod]

Yea,emailing verses/songs has help taken the "heart"out of hip hop imo...

Its just not that home cooked meal anymore...

 

[Broccoli Rob]

So what, he's still washed and bitter. Don't be mad bro, I liked Brand Nubian and even the Wild Cowboys shlt. But he's a angry dude, so is Lord Jamar. I think it's just a 5%er thing.

Sadat is the epitome of a washed up bitter rapper.

your post is the epitome of baseless hate. neg.

 

[The Dust King]

the biggest artists in the game are doing and HAVE been doing it for a long time

since the late 90s, its just the norm now though
