mind-blowing? that's a bit of an exaggeration...[/quote

I don't think so homie but I respect the opinion. I listened to the album straight through the other day and came to the conclusion that not many producers are on his level. Speaking of contemporary producers of course.
 
Nothing was the same was all around trash, from his weak ass lyrics, to the horrible production all the way up to that stupid ass album cover. Worse album I've heard in a while

Even Hold On slaps, just think about what Cole could do with a producer like 40

It was an average album. Fuck outta here

I'm speaking strictly on terms of production. If Dilla made those beats a lot of y'all would be co signing

 
Yo, [Cam'ron]'s the best. Cam’s music is so R&B. That’s my influence. Fuck everybody. I love those R&B/rap crosses. Especially if they’re done gangster enough—it’s this juxtaposition that I’ve always loved. We don’t achieve that with Drake because he’s not gangster. But instead of being on a street rapper with an R&B sound, we push on good music.

^^^^^That quote needs its own thread!!!!!
 
40's a cool producer, his body of work is pretty good for a guy who's only been producing seriously since 2009....also he's real inventive with a lot of his samples.

i'd respect him a lot more if he ever manages to break out from drakes basement though.
 
The irony is I don’t listen to music. When it comes to 808s, for me, that was an influence of “Say What’s Real.” Drake rapped on [Kanye’s “Say You Will”] and it sounded so good that I just ran with that, which developed into something that me and Drake embellished upon moving forward. But ultimately the sound of Nothing Was The Same, to me, is moving backwards, going back to some of my roots and elaborating on what we created through So Far Gone, which of course had direct implications from Kanye West and a lot of other music as well. It’s not like I was listening to 808s when I was making that. I was listening to The Smiths, Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks. That’s what I had on repeat. I’m not focused on what other people are doing because I’m concerned with elaborating my own musical palette and trying to discover something new.
