Have you not heard Rare Chandeliers or Albert Einstein or Covert Coup?


Yeah..but his vibe be the same whole project. Alchemist good for giving you two songs per album. Technically sound, just not diverse enough.

ALC just keeps putting stuff out.
He's recently turned on the ASR again.
He just moves through sounds, he'll be back on the drums heavy again at some point.

I know he likes to not add his own drum sounds a lot and use whatever percussion is in the sample as well. He has never had an emphasis on drums and more on chopping. Kind of reminds me of how 9th Wonder would use the same damn snare on every damn beat. Drums must be an afterthought for these nikkas
Sometimes it can take a long time to find a good snare trust me.
I find myself going back to old records before I use some of the kits that come out.

I disagree, the two albums he did with currensy, the 2 with prodigy and the 1 with havoc were all :fire:

the only mediocre ones he did were cuz of subpar rappers. I'm talking durag dynasty and domo genesis.


Asia, Tri State & Killer Ben are all incredible rappers.
