Roc-A-Fella In Talks To Sign dead prez
   

Contrabandit.com has learned from sources that revolutionary rap group dead prez may be soon be signing with Roc-A-Fella Records. Apparently, Roc head honcho Jay Z was intrigued with the possibilities of signing M-1 and stic.man after recently appearing on a song with the group. The group's newest album RBG: Revolutionary But
Gangsta received rave reviews from critics and was slated to come out later this summer on Columbia Records, however the group was unceremoniously dropped.

who knows... the ROC signed MOP. I'll believe this. Be funny if they signed the Roots too.

yea but they probably wont...if they sign to the roc then the chances of us ever hearing a beat from them that was as dope as "You'll Find A Way" will be very small...their production will change, etc...i think the only thing they'll have control over is thier lyrics.

This must piss you off Jome, cuz the ROc already fucked up MOp(puttin them with that Spice Girl !!).....i dont wanna hear Dead Prez over those lame sped up voice samples (that shit was tight on Blueprint, but its overdone now)......

By the way, Dead Prez also supposedly talked to puffy, that would be fucked up too....

This isn't good news, I can't see them being politically minded on the ROC. However, if they just leave Kanye and Dead Prez together to make an album then  :o how dope would that album be? Is the RBG album actually gonna be released by the way?

Not really, M.O.P. have released about 10-12 fire-tracks, and 3-4 average/wack ones after they signed with the Roc..

Exactly.. but their "political minded"-image doesn't fool me..
It's been done before.. better too.

you're trippin Jome, dead prez is real with it

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.
