You know what, this IS a Fabolous thread lol. Not even a diss, but that type of sound he was a big part of. I can’t hear Can’t Deny It, Superwoman and Young’n just by clicking this thread

Fabolous definitely had bargain bin beats on his albums for the most part. Some of them were hot at the time, but don't sound as good now. I still like "Young'n" and maybe "Right Now, Later On".

Honestly, Fab's whole career has been throw aways from other artists.

Loved that album, and Sigel was a favorite for his entire run, but yeah, in retrospect, that is a terrible beat. That whole era, had those really cheap, video game style beats, that aged horribly, even a few years later. Already pointed out but Clue, Duro, Rick Rock, were flagrant violators.

Trackmasters had the horrible handclaps and cheap guitar riffs. For example, the production on Best of Both Worlds

Guilty Untll Proven Innocent
Change The Game
Beanie Mack bytch
Ghetto Fabolous whole album
Street Dreams most of the album


Kiss probably spit over a couple of these on his debut too, there's some hilariously dated production on that one.
Those handclap snares were so ass 90% of the time. Only Alc, Ye and Just used them well.
