I've now given up hope for Oh My God
« on: February 11, 2003, 08:39:39 AM »
According to WCAftershock.com Timbaland will have some beats on Oh My God. Firstly, Rakim over Timbaland? I thought this was gonna be a classic hip hop album, not a shit album. Unless they are a completely different style to his normal ones then i no longer rate Dre's ear (actually while i do think he his the best producer in hip hop he has never produced/executive produced an album where every song has been 5/5 and that ain't my opinion, thats a fact)
I just hope that Dre decides to take them off.

Hiphopsite said that Alchemist is in the studio with Dre for Cube's and Rakim's album too.

I don't believe Tim will be on Ra's album.  I think it'll be just be Dre, Prime and Al.

Yeah if this is true that Dre is totally messing up this album. Rakim will not be able to spit fire over a Timbaland beat. I still think Rakim would have been better off signing with Rawkus or some other label like them, cause the whole Aftermath style just doesn't really suit him at all.

a dream rakim album for me would be let's say 15 tracks...8 produced by primo, 3 by alchemist, 2 by dre, 1 by erick sermon (would love to hear that), and 1 by jaymastajay (never happen, but i think if he got the chance to work behind some real expensive boards magic might happen, plus give a brother a break)...there's my dream album, peace.

i gave up on this over a year ago......

Most hip-hop is now keyboard driven, because the majority of hip-hop workstations have loops and patches that enable somebody with marginal skills to put tracks together,...

Unfortunately, most hip-hop artists gravitated towards the path of least resistance by relying on these pre-set patches. As a result, electric guitar and real musicians became devalued, and a lot of hip-hop now sounds the same.
