@ 03:58 " So What you sayin" The DJ goes off! I learned to scratch off that record , could never duplicate the DJ's skill though!

EPMD= underrated

Why nobody talk about E Sermon as a producer?

 

[son of 1973]

fav group ever along w run dmc. wu's main influence (rza says so). put redman on. das efx too and they went plat. biggie said he was influenced by sermons flow. influenced the west coast heavy too (beats and slow flows). their albums are classic, influenced how i rhymed (flow) and dj'ed (used to rewind dj scratch and practice over and over). sick beats, pioneered a lot of samples and concepts. i miss them dudes

28 responses without one mention of EPMD? OK well....

EPMD

 

[king hassan]

Peep the Eddie Kendricks and I know the guitar lick, it will come to me later. But this shit hit like hammers on this beat, fucking sick with the echo flow[video=youtube;S0w3xbGoqKI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0w3xbGoqKI[/video] the echo made this song dope as fuck

 

[Freshonia]

really underrated......i listen to my neighbors Unfinished Business cd like a year ago....listened to that shit for a week straight no lie....

 

[snappa]

Never would argue their place in hip hop. But I'm gonna be real... never was feeling 'em.

Not saying they are wack. Just wan't into their shit growing up.

Man, "Unfinished Business" is the best one to me, that was the second album. That shit had like 8 heaters on there[video=youtube;wGDVC_KZxbA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGDVC_KZxbA[/video]
I pretty much know all the samples, ask and I can put them out there

Real niggaz get dapz. *extends upwards palm* that's the thing right there, if you were'nt into them you just was'nt, people can't get past that. I never was into Pac like that, that's just me but you damn near have to fight a nigga if you say you don't. People like what they like, my man...

I felt the 3rd one better, my bad Erick Sermon did flip a lot of wild samples, he said he did'nt want to do the customary James Brown samples with EPMD, he used a lot of rock and funk with the samples
