There's no way you could convince me that society isn't on the verge of collapse and that we all aren't going to die immediately when that beat is playing.
Nas captured that feeling perfectly
And to think...that beat wouldn't have existed but for the fact that they didn't have $ to clear the loop of that Al Green record, so Hav got on his shyt and chopped it up (and god knows what else).
Hav sees his beats in colors.
I don't know what that means...because I'm not a musical genius.
I didn't know that. I know Kanye West sees beats in colors too. He painted a picture of what one of his beats sounded like. I think it was MTV Diary? I know he showed one to the camera and it looked crazy.
I wonder how much of that is actual Synesthesia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia) or just creativity. Synesthesia is what Kamye actually has, and it's where pathways in the brain are kind of rewired. So someone literally might perceive letters or numbers as colors, see sounds, etc. People that have Synesthesia are more likely to be involved in creative activities.
Khrysis said he "hears beats in 3D"
“Back in the Cool Edit days we didn’t have the BPMs so you had to cut and paste and surgically arrange the track so it didn’t fall too far off beat. I mix and master every thing out of Jamla so sometimes you have to perform surgery to mix the damn song. Certain frequencies have certain (properties). I read sounds like a graph. It helps with that shyt. When I hear the music I see the graph. Some people see colors or shapes, I see lines and graphs when I hear music. It’s the beat matrix.”
I remember someone (probably you) posting something about this and my jaw was on the floor. The whole time I thought Hav was just talking shyt
Hav said it in the Source article about Hell on Earth. Fun fact, Killah Priest was at the session when the Source did the interview...

Mobb Deep - Still Infamous
http://player.theplatform.com/p/BCY3OC/SS8W_Qlaw7S3/select/media/D7aX0W5Jom_1
In the history of Hip-Hop, there are only a handful of albums that have completely shifted the culture. On April 25, 1995 – 20-years ago today, Mobb Deep’s The Infamous dropped and immediately became one of those albums. In honor of the 20-year anniversary of their Loud Records debut, The Urban Daily presents, Mobb Deep: Still Infamous – a 3 part docu-short we produced to pay homage to one of the most important albums in Hip-Hop history.
Hailing from hallowed grounds of Queensbridge, NY, the home of Hip-Hop legends like MC Shan andNas, Mobb Deep, comprised of Kejuan “Havoc” Muchita and Albert “Prodigy” Johnson dropped the raw and gritty LP as a follow up to their debut album Juvenile Hell. The Infamous was a darker, more brooding production that captured the essence of life on the streets of New York City in the mid-90s. Only two years removed from their first album, the duo completely refined their sound and gave 90’s Hip-Hop one of its first masterpieces.
The Urban Daily talked to a number of legendary Hip-Hop heads about the album’s importance and overall impact on the game. Revolt TV’s Jayson Rodriguez, MTV’s Rob Markman, Vibe Magazine’s Datwon Thomas, hip-hop journalists Kim Osorio and Shaheem Reid, Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg, and legendary DJ’s Cipha Sounds and Funk Flex all make appearances in this three-part docu-short.
Watch part one of Mobb Deep: Still Infamous above and check back with us on Monday and Tuesday as we release parts 2 and 3.

I Am A God
One of my favorite albums of all time
Qu Hectic is still my shyt
I open my eyes to the streets where I was raised as a man
And learned to use my hands for protection
In scuffles, throw all my blows in doubles
I'm coming from Queens motherfukker carrying guns in couples
