My mans!! Keep working–

 

Chose to do Hey Arnold! for this video!!  One of my favorite episodes too–  It was always dope that his best friend Gerald was black.

The CBE 2 is shaping up really well!!  I had it down to 20 beats but as of late I’ve been adding to the batch!!

Stay tuned!!

 

 

keep these videos coming jeedo!!!

Last summer Stik and I drop’d our record “crown and coke”– It record #4 of our “and” series!  Our first leak off this album was a song called “sheepskin”-  This song has one of those long stories behind it but imma make it as short as possible.

We recorded the song in one take and we probably had too much to drink during our studio session… so the night we recorded it– it sounded great but the next morning it sounded like shit!! hahahaha

The joint is super simple– I chopped ERRRRR…looped the drums from kanye west’s “heard em say” and found some dope brass sounds from a Boots Randolph record.  This is the only song on that record i made with my asr 1O and it shows. peep

It was the last song we recorded to finish the album and i wasn’t happy with just letting that version fly-

so i loaded the asr up with some moog and synths sounds and kinda recreated the joint so that i would ride a lil more.  Stiks flow on it is so simple and relaxed and i wanted to make the beat more interesting and arpeggiated.  I wanted it to feel like a dream.

Hit the discography tab above and check out the rest of the record!!

peace

This is a couple years old but– Had to revisit it.  Hip hop needs more of this!!  …This is why rap is rap!!!

Peace

Here is the second video from my cartoon beat emporium series–  Decided to go with Animaniacs because its another show that as a shorty i was absolutely hooked on!!!

So dope!!! I forgot all about Animaniacs until my mother reminded me–  So happy to share these memories with y’all

enjoy!
