i've kind of underrated him myself, even tho he is excellent i just refused to put him up there but i mean sometimes you hear beats that just destroy everything, but part of it is since i make beats i look at it from a how difficult would it be for me to make that stand point, or even just the approach itself regardless of difficulty, like how could someone think to do it, LIKE THAT.
i dunno.
shit like that just is incredibly nasty to me. from all angles. the sample itself. the vocal chops. the bassline. the little drum breakdown where he flows in with a little break chop, and the drums themselves are so simplistic. the average dude would bury this in hihats.
its just fucking wizardry that people make stuff so perfect
its part of why i was/am mad that recently alot of dudes just loop samples, or chop and create loops with samples but then don't put drums or bass or anything to it. alchemist did alot of that, and when i know he's such a fucking beast with drum programming and playing basses and just overall producing it kills me
but yea alchemist has a ton of classic beats. i can't put too many names above him. even legends. granted people im putting him ahead of invented techniques he uses. but nobody cares that the japanese invented jiu jitsu yaknow
