So they had DMX re-record his own Best Of CD?

[diggy]

This reminded me of this:

 

[Heretic]

Sounds like them dudes who be posting beats on youtube talking about, "contact me if you want to use this" and nikkas be posting them garbage ass rhymes in rhe comment section. I bet X was un the comment section asking for contact info saying "hit me up at darkman98@earthlink.net or bookdmxxx@herzingcollege.edu"

Thanks for saving me from having to write this. People don't understand how deep the music industry is.

Prince's fans got a little lesson in this around 1999 when his song "1999" Warner went back in rotation and in response to Warner re-releasing the single he re-recorded the song and released it as a single. So it was a re-recorded version of the same song because the label owns the rights to the master (copyright to the sound recording) and he either owned the publishing or licensed it at statutory rate which is like 9.1 cents per record sold (for songs under 5 minutes)


For the people that always talk about Dr. Dre and his attention to detail this is a perfect example of how even with an exact template to reference a lesser producer will still yield a lesser sound. This is why the greatest producers will spend hours finding the right sound and tuning it to perfection. Dr. Dre was talking about the craft behind music production and he said nobody wants to sound wack and a wack record doesn't necessarily mean the artist had a wack sound in their head when they set out to create their record but there's an actual skill involved in bringing a record to life. Whoever worked on these production knew exactly how the record was suppose to sound but was obviously content with making a lesser version. Perhaps due to budget restriction. Imagine how much appeal a Dr. Dre record would lose if it was rushed like this

Sometimes something like this can be completed by an audio engineer

Glad we have the Internet and can bypass buying this trash and just add all the OG songs to 1 folder and be done with it

Edit:

Who cares if its a knockoff beat... The words brehs

 

[Vinny Lupton]

Alot of 90s artists re-record their old big hits..of course everyone else besides X tries to make them sound the same and does it to own a new master. Something tells me he did this very cheap for a bunch of cacs

 

[Ghost Utmost]

Sad.

I can hear the niqqa struggling through alot of parts.

Sounds bored.

And drunk

 

[Day_Walker]

This shyt still better than 90% of the shyt out these days

 

[Prince Mongo]

Who's the market for a record like this in 2016? Anybody that wants to listen to old DMX songs can find them easily, I don't even think this shyt would turn a profit in '06
