Aiight...next post is for all you OKP loving visitors and as usual, good music lovers in general. I'm gonna pull stuff from the stacks that various OKartist have used in the past. First up are The Roots. Illadelph Halflife is definitely one of my favorite LPs by the group and Ital blew my mind with its weird time signature and the fact that tip, thought and malik b was still able to rip it. Nevertheless, I got 1 of dem diggers smiles when i plopped this Teruo Nakamura record down and.....!Dilated Peoples made some REAL REAL Joints on those first two albums man. Proper Propaganda was 1 of my favorites. this rare New York City piece is just as funky. Many times sampled songs are good for just thse 1,2,4 measures cats snatch up...not this time.
Brown Sugar is the album that started "D" mania. Rumor has it that he did alot of it on an Ensoniq ASR keyboard. Amazing. This is pre-quest love so for "Smooth" he looped up Bill Cosby's (yes that Bill Cosby) cover of Allen Toussaints ubiquitous "get out my life, woman". If you have the attention span..primo freaked the end for "the illest brother".
David Axelrod is no stranger to samplers and the fact his handful of albums continue to show up on contemporary albums is a nod to his production genius. Pharoahe Monch and lee Stone hook up "a divine image" on the new album...SICK TUNE (both of em).
Yes...my infatuation with Badu's "booty" continues...
