Sounds Like: Sample-based beats, sort of like some early-mid 90's shit or some Roc-A-Fella kinda shit. On the rhymes, just peep my influences for details. I tend to use a lot of rock samples, mostly that 70's style with the BANGIN' drums.
I love these vintage synthisizers, I love fuzz guitar, I love wah-wah, I love REALLY compressed drums that pump n' breathe. I love snappy snares and claps (big time). I love shaker and tamborine loops when I can find them. I love these horn blasts. I love drum machine swing. I love to chop up cool samples but I'm NOT a crate digger shit head who cares more about whether or not a a record is an origional pressing/SUPER rare than what he can do with it. Music is about fun, leave the nerd shit at school.
Record Label: Yeah Right, Man!
