[...] really odd samples. First and foremost, that Rihanna track has been buzzing for it’s pure hilarity. Just Blaze mixing that annoying O-Zone track? Wow……. (C) Flav. Then we’ve got [...]

um, ok…. I don’t think T.I. as an artist (or emcee, for that matter) was the issue. Take away T.I. from the track. The article is referencing the sample used in the beat. A beat produced by Just Blaze. Explain to me again how this is not hip hop?

I have a lot of respect for your work Kevin, but how can you call your blog “This is hip-hop” and post on it song like this ?

These new so called “hip-hop artists” ruined this music form.

Funny you say that… I heard 9th may be in the studio with Celine Dion working on her new album. No joke. Unless I heard wrong. Same source told me he was working with Luda too and that turned out to be true.

Yeah man, I could def understand for you cats in Europe.

And yeah Jayski, maybe a little late on the song, but it’s called promotional timing. If everyone talked about Paper Trail weeks ago when it leaked, they would consider the album old news by the time it’s due in stores. The article was written a couple weeks ago, but we chose to post it now to coincide with the album release date.

Paper Trail in stores now… go cop that shit, if you’re feeling it.

I was talking to my boy FredNukes (who is a huge Kanye fan) about this trend the other day.

This particular song sucks IMO, but then I don’t like either T.I. or Rihannah

It’s nice that US hip hop tries out new things, but my main gripe with this trend, is that for (my) european ears it sounds dated almost before it is released.
The thing is that, that the electronica/dance/techno sound is being heavily used and developed over here.

So when US producers sample something that’s a year or two old, it sounds like they’re reaching for a hit with a dated sound.

I was voiting a bit when i heard the track first, cause the original track was the worst song ever. But now it’s more funny to me, like a little gimmick, the rest of the track is pretty dope anyway!

yo. kev. i noticed the same thing. you know, im from germany, and – well, mhh- it was a huge hit over here. but i think it sounds cool when rihanna sings the hook with the same melody.
