The production on that album was so dope. I don't hate on Lil B, he does his thing...just not a thing I'm into. But damn I'm mad this beat didn't go to someone who could blow it out the water.










He'll always have my respect from sampling one of the goat bands
All great responses in this thread. Very based and historical
that beat is fukking incredible. I remember the first time I heard it. I was like 'whoa.. what is this?!' I think Lil B is the first rapper to ever use a Slowdive sample, or even shoegaze in general. Maybe I'm wrong. But it certainly blew me away.
When I tell cats that Lil B is probably the dopest overall hip hop artist of the new school, they laugh. But they don't realize that Lil B has routinely done shyt I've never heard before. Some of it trash. But the great stuff is like: 'wow... this is creative as hell.'
since souvlaki is in my top ten albums. Could do no wrong after that. And yeah I won't lie and say my nikka doesn't have a lot of disposable tracks. but if you take the ones where he really spitting on, get some good mixing he could have easily had like 4 or 5 great albums. Myspace alone deads the whole he cant rap shyt.
People forget my nikka quite literally started that cloud rap wave a few years ago that got nikkas like clams and rocky paid.
Also shoegaze is dope as hell but really difficult to sample. too much high end noise.
when that shyt came on I was likesince souvlaki is in my top ten albums.
