Bruh, this shyt TRASH. shyt sounds like a lazy ass first draft of the "Change the Game" beat. :dead:

Beat sounds like it was used in almost every episode of the And 1 Streetball where they wandered around a city. :mjlol:

:wow:
I give props to Rick Rock for making it out of the gump to produce for A-listers… But repeatedly hearing different variations of the same sound effect/synth, after change the game, turned me off to the point where I would avoid songs if he was posted in the liner notes. Change the game was a classic but I couldn’t take anything else.

Clue/Duro and Rockwilder had me feeling the same. Eric Sermon too after he kept trying to do the same thing as “Just like Music”.

Yeah, man. As much as I appreciate producers from the past, there's a LOT of brehs who have extensive credible work, but have large chunks of their library that was just them trying to recreate their own hits.

Erick Sermon's production fell off hard in the late 90s save for a few gems like Just Like Music. And you can't even blame it on lack of sampling since a ton of his mid-90s shyt didn't use samples either. Dude just hit a wall.

Nah I know I already addressed this song but this shyt is horrendously bad, the "booty" adlibs during Benzino's verse and the "I see booty" chant after the hook. And Benzino's pops at the end clearly looking like he did not want to be there. :laff:

And that G Dep verse is wild. "Too Young is a man in China" :wtf: :sitdown:
