Once upon a time ‘sample ownership’ meant alot.
I wonder how many people are still listening to Cubin Links 2? Classic?? Me think not.

Its discussions like this that create brilliant albums like GFK’s Apollo Kids.

Post more shit like this!

Umteen years later and that Finesse track for “Jewelz” is a jewel. Don’t know why Marley’s version even made the album. Good thing it’s only 54 sec long. And Raekwon sounds like shit. Should’ve left that alone. Why was “Kids That Rich” not on Cuban Linx 2??? It smothers everything on this album and it didn’t make the final cut? Raekwon is in mixtape mode right now.

Yo Chris calm down son!!!
Using the same fucking beat three different times is a fucking disgrace. The album is type decent but who the fuck wants to hear the same beat rhymed over from year to year from the best producer ever.

Not got my copy on me at the moment, so I can’t recall which track it was, but I’m sure there’s one that uses the same sample as Chino XL’s ‘We Got’ as well…

SHut up, Ya’ll are bitching about the most miniscule of shit. Its rediculous. Niggas hear a dope record, but then don’t wanna give the shit credit. Get the fuck outta here. Peep the tracks for what they are, if you like em, fine, if not, don’t listen to the shit. This is the same bullshit Wu been dealing with for years, meanwhile, niggas can take other people’s whole rhymes and styles, turn around and recite them shits verbatim, and its okay. You gotta be kidding me! Ya’ll kill me

You all are talking about 1 beat on OB4CL and 3 or 4 for Supreme Clientele.

9 or 10 beats with previously used samples or entire beats? That’s acceptable for something so hyped?

Yeah, the rhyming is fire, but still.

all the people calling an album that hasn’t even been released yet “a classic” are really killing the meaning of the word.

kinda like how “peace” went, or telling your boo you love her every ten seconds

I enjoy the album a lot, but I noticed that “Black Mozart” also sounds like Phil The Agony’s “Clear The Lane” and “Have Mercy” that sample was also used in an Atmosphere song I forget the title of.
