I don’t think they could ever prove it. RZA prob has nodes what it actually wa we other these days. You could bring up a bunch of different sound that “could” be the sample so I’m not sure they could successfully sue.

See shyt like this is why I had to move Dre from his number 1 spot and place RZA there. Especially once I heard the og tracks he's sampled/ Replayed. He doesn't do hardly anything other than add a baseline. I see why ppl have been discrediting him a lot over the past few yrs.
RZA is the GOAT in my eyes as far as hip-hop production goes. I gives a fukk about sound quality and good mixing like that. Some of the best production is grimey and dirty and that's the allure of it. Not that it doesn't matter but I wasn't bumping NWA because it was so clean and perfectly mastered. Which it wasn't anyway.

Dre beats Rza with quality, that why he's celebrated so highly

Dr.Dre has way too many examples of mixing perfection


Rza's best mix out of all the projects to me was iron man
Rza best mix wu album to me was the W album and all the others after

We don't fault him because we loved Wu for not sounding polish so it's a niche type thing.

It's for another thread probably and I said it before, but Dre gets the goat label for mixing qualities and not the creative part and it seems like a double standard to me.

Besides that, props on this thread, if the find is correct it only shows how amazing the production on this was, possibly my favorite beat on the album too :wow:

rza is the goat creative in the ENTIRE genre its not even close

Mans got atleast 5 all timers to his name alone

And like 10 other gems. Only dre is on the level and yes its because of sound quality. Noone put their own family/friends like the rza and made them superstars and thus became one himself by way of doing so.
