Learn to play one real life instrument. most "producers" cant do that.
Knowing more about music can make you a much better producer too. Most of these dudes work so hard at their beats because their overall understanding of music theory is so poor. That isn't to say their beats are trash but you can tell they lack fundamentals. Work smart not hard.

Man, I knew it was coming. This sounds like some entitlement shyt. Even though I wasn't dissing the quality or sound of the white producers music or talent I'm accused of discrediting them because I'm not trying to be taught production by them and rather learn from another black person.

its all good doe enjoy dat privilege while it lasts.
...i'm blk...you said white ppl cant / dont have rhythm though.

not every white person is a teenage white chick who cant dance. I'm sure those white dudes must have skill if they have the audacity to make tutorial vidsthough. If you really cared about learning the race wouldnt matter lol

When did I say they don't have rhythm? I said I don't want them to teach Me rhythm.

Never said that I just don't want them teaching me their version of funk because its not organic to me.

Word breh, i mean I give em a chance if the video isn't that long, but I aint really tryna learn how to make trap bangers from some 15 year old german kid. On the other hand a lot of the brothas just dikk around in their vids

Exactly breh! thats what im saying. Check it, I think the hottest beats and production styles we make come from a set of struggles that privilege can't remake.

Some of the strongest purveyors of old soul music over the last 20 years have been white, DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist come to mind, but then again you have people like T-Ray who go way back as well, that really appreciated a lot of the older soul music with proper drum samples and all that. You just don't see it as much, mainstream things started to change around 2000 or so.

Damu the Fudgemunk, obviously Dilla, and ?uestlove are big proponents of the digging scene for production that I can think of off the top of my head.

Why are you rewriting history, cac? Most all soul music's purveyors have been black. Soul music is an historically African American music fashioned from African American gospel music, jazz and blues. Its early adopters were all black including Sam Cooke. My family used to only listen to Soul music. Cacs don't have any footprint in soul. Cac's footprint in anything related is in rock and metal.

In 30 years the roddy right of 2045 will be saying that about hip hop. Cause we invented rock as well. And country, and techno http://theappendix.net/blog/2014/1/technofy-your-mind

so if we're saying those things are white imagine what we'll be saying about hiphop in the next few decades. Black people always shrug the takeover off till we look back and it's already happened, cause white folks always plan the shyt across several lifetimes. Most black folks don't even wanna plan 5 years in front of them, let alone scope a 50-100 year process...

Rewrite history? :mjlol: Nobody is claiming that at all. I know exactly what soul music is, far beyond Sam Cooke. All I said was that it's a shame that you don't see a lot of new/trendy black producers go for the original sampling of soul records and you end up with a lot of trap stuff that sounds the same.

So a few good beats per every million or so produced by whites..whats the fukking point then, and all this happening at who's expense..your presence is desecrating hip hop.
