Let's celebrate the GOAT producer Havoc still getting high profile placements 2 decades in the game

I never knew where that sample came from, heading how he flipped it is insane.

Hav could be in my top 5 producers, I can't think of one wack beat. Would be dope to see him jump in Alcs lane and start producing full projects for others.

The story behind that beat is that it started as a pretty straightforward loop, but they didn't have the budget to pay for the sample, so Hav had to go back and flip the sample in a way where they wouldn't have to clear it.

that survival of the fittest flip. how did the nikka even hear that melody in there

i had to repeat that a handful of times before i recognized it

I remember when the thread was made on here after that sample was discovered. It was the same for me, without the video of the sample being flipped, there was no way I would have ever been able to spot the sample.

Havoc is a low key genius musically. People sleep but I don't. He gets props but doesn't get his real historical credit cause he's one of the best ever.

Yo that was a lot of work, original sample is quite different from SOTF.

One of the most promising aspects of the article was the part about Hav sending beats to Kanye unsolicited. I wonder if he's sending beats to anybody else?
I'd love Hav to get a placement on the next Kendrick album
Or the next Joey Badass album (although that wouldn't really be high profile )

But let's keep the focus on the GOAT.

I may be in the minority (and not just because of my ethnic selection on school applications)...



... but Havoc > Premo/RZA



I'd bump a mobb deep album in the whip before a gangstar/tang lp.



If you got blaupuncts or factory sound systems... Havoc's shiit just sounds much better. His drums and basslines were fukkin' waves of centures ahead of his time.



Ye knew what the fukk was up.

Another overlooked Hav gem from 96.
Familiar sample...but Hav cooked it up and seasoned it in that unique Hav way

 

[mobbinfms]

These two songs sampled, essentially, the same record.



Hav is a scientist

was about to post this, he also produced this joint too

I thought that album was gonna be the shyt when that first song came on.
Instead it was
