one of my favourite albums ever

4 Ant Fly Coltrane May 5, 2009 at 2:23 pm

Goooood Looking on this one….I learned a few things from this set, 1, i didnt kno that someone ever covered “Give Me Your Love” (Barbara did much justice 2 it IMO)…2, i didnt kno that Dre used that “Sir Nose D’ Voidoffunk” also for da “Niggaz 4 Life” track. Many may say that “Strictly Business” was their “classic album”, but BNP was their best 2 me. “Strictly”,although good, jus had da classic songs…trailed off 2 much 4 me on side B, but thats 4 anutha discussion

GHYOU MAN FOR REAL HIP HOP

What is the loop on the intro of Scratch Bring It Back? It’s only by it’s self for two bars (with the BDP – rewind!!! – over the top).

Here’s a useless fact for you – the rewind noise on Duck Down is Led Zeppelin’s Whole Lotta Love.

Yeah this was; wait it still is the shit yo! Thanks for the EasyE and NWA. Hows about some Too Short samples, I know that he has some hella cool beats right? I want to try and work on some Lost Boyz Lifestyles of the rich and shamelass 1995 samples! I bet you forgot about that one.

The scratch “master on the beat down” on “Scratch Bring It Back, Pt. 2 [Mic Doc]” is taken from “Redman – Wach yo nuggets” (Whut ? Thee Album. 1992).
And “don’t forget i’m crazy swift” on the same track is taken from “EPMD – I’m mad” (Business as usual. 1990)
