Think about a Preme track its the majority of times a 4 or 8 bar loop the whole song. And when u get to the hook its just some scratches and simple hook because the lyrical rapper wants you to just pay attention to his 16.
Where u got a beat from Drumma boy, Timbo, Swizz, etc. they might change the beat up every few bars to keep ya moving and u got a build up to the hook where the hook is dam near the celebration and u just waiting for the hook to come around cause its the most memorable part.
Basically lyrical rappers just like loop based beats because there easy to rap to and they want there words to articulate and flow. Thats why u had alot of people jump on Amillie or swagga like us because it was a loop the whole song where only a handful of people jumped on a song like Put On.
Best post in this thread so far, but would a really good rapper be intimidated by a beat like that? A good beat makes me focus on the song more. I hear a wack beat and its on to the next track for me.
I agree with that but a lot of lyrical rappers have ripped these "Super Producer" Beats...
Lloyd Banks ripped a timbo/Danja beat = I'm so Fly.
Nas ripped a Polow Da Don Beat = Hero
....and another one by DJ TOOMP = Slave and the Master.
Big Pun ripped plently of Just Blaze beats.
Jay-Z on Dre.
The list just goes on and on...Seems like you guys are listening to wrong stuff...
