I hate to burst some bubbles, but...

IP: 1ADC A69C

When a emcee on RV posts a track with a famous sample on it, and tons of people drool over the track, it's mostly because of the sample. I'm specifically talking about Black's "Loving You" song. Now, Black is my dawg and is a dope rapper. But, that track was average at best as far as "rapping" goes. The song that sample came from is a classic and loved by MANY, MANY people. Therefore, it's no surprise it would have a similar effect on people when it's converted to a rap song. Black, you got skills on the mic, but, that song was mediocre at best with an AMAZING sample.


The same can be said about Ike and Trip's "Close my eyes" song, which was good at best. The song that sample is derived from is very nice, which gives the illusion the song is better than it actually is.


So, as a whole, a song might be "enjoyable" to listen to. But, that doesn't necessarily make it a dope "rap" song because the "rapping" in it is nothing to write home about.

see, i find that a really smart thing to do, because maybe they didn't want their emphasis on the music, but to blend the rhythm with the words to create an overall effect that captures to listener....thats what music is all about

Well, I just wanna take the time to thank you, I really appreciate you taking the time to listen & formulate opinions about my music....However, I must apoligize for not being able to return the favor...I dun listen to enuff of ya music to have an opinion of it.....the few times I vaguely remember listening, nothing made a big enuff impression to secure a place in my memory banks.....but plz..don't let that discourage you from supporting Triple_N's music......as long as u add to the plays on my SC page.....you koo wit me, buddy!
