Thread in trib_Ote of wiz khalifa's alice deejay-sampling 'say yeah'

lol one of my friends went to high school with this dude

Wiz Khalifa - Say Yeah

has anyone sampled Sonique yet???

"a friend of mine from pittsburgh was trynna get me to pay attention to this dude like a year and a half ago and i was all 'lol pittsburgh rap'

-- deej"

he is probably one of the best pittsburgh emcee's ive heard, though he is only as good as the beats he is on. at my record shop (in pittsburgh, obviously) we sold many copies of both his mixtape and his demo, which is wild since we almost never move copies of local shit because it mostly sucks.

this song in particular is very poopy, ive heard him do it live opening for Nas once and TI once, both times it made me want to throw up in my mouth. that said, the cat who does alot of his studio shit played me a track he did rapping on a 9th Wonder beat, that shit was very hot. and of course the joint he did on Nicolay's album is pretty nice. he needs to hook up with some of pgh's better beatsmiths, he could be ridiculous.

for some actually really dope pittsburgh hip-hop (though he is originally from strong island) check armstead brown:

http://www.myspace.com/peacepipeproductions

his "Fieldwork" album is actually very very good, one of the best real hiphop records i have heard in years.

which record shop pipecock?

can you recommend a good fake hiphop record?

pipecock nothing on that myspace is anywhere near as good as 'say yeah'

Isn't this just a rip-off Bone Thugs 'n Harmony over some trancey sounds? Next.

dom yr link is fukt

yeah 412, pixburgh music, what

"which record shop pipecock?

we used to be in east liberty up until 2 weeks ago, our grand re-opening in the Jerry's Records compound will be March 8th. talk about lucking into the best spot in the city to sell records!

"pipecock nothing on that myspace is anywhere near as good as 'say yeah'

-- deej"

it all depends on what youre looking for. if you want good hiphop, armstead brown is your man. if you want some nonsense, then that wiz joint is right up your alley. that shit is barely even listenable, what a fucking joke of a song. it makes me mad because the guy could obviously do some much better shit.

"can you recommend a good fake hiphop record?

-- moonship journey to baja"

no, but i can reccomend you alot of bad ones.

this track is badazzzzzzzzzzzzz

pipecock, can you tell us what jazz record "Say Yeah" is most comparable to, phrased as "'Say Yeah' is the __________ of hiphop"?

thx in advnc

i can't actually think of a jazz record that is embarassing enough to make a direct comparison, but imagine Charlie Hunter covering "YMCA" and i think you could almost get there.

This song is great and the bit in the video where he's on the moon is lolz.

It takes talent to take a half-decent trance song and turn it into a decent rap beat. I'm inspired.

went out last night w/ a bunch of people and this on a CD in my car, didnt listen to a single other song

is this eurodance-hop?

crime mob - what is love

^^^
fave of last year

does "the way i are" count

prob more "eurodance" than "-hop" actually, but yeah

Princess from Crime Mob eurodance-hop

"Say Yeah" is the Charlie Hunter covering "YMCA" of hiphop. SAY IT, MOTHERFUCKER!

xp: welcome to upthread

(I guess no one posted the mp3 yet, so free pass and thanks.)

i'm glad we all agree that this song is the shit

I've always hated the original mostly because of that annoying synth riff and it really isn't that much better with someone rapping on it.

<3<3<3<3<3ing u

i fuck with all these songs

just heard say yeah last week - a+++

ive been playing this out for a minute now - local hit

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVKCDKpSmgI

shawty redd & big gipp - drifter

thats the track snoop said inspired 'sensual seduction'

yeah i know i wrote an idolator thing about it but its not up yet

as the world's biggest dj sammy fan i wish i could like this song more than do, but i support this trendlet wholeheartedly. (i am actually writing about mr. khalifa as i type.)

(ethan are you ever going to return my emails?)

i support the <i>idea</i> of this trendlet i should say. the actual results so far have left me kinda cold.

someone needs to do "call on me" next

twista needs to get on 'sandstorm'

i cant stop listening to this shit, it puts a smile on my face every time

i don't like all the space in the first verse really, but the video kept me watching and by the third verse i was noddin my head

this post is so HOOS!

ha i listened to it for lolz what does rap nerds think is better than kanye now - and i mean its not better but it is better in its own way which is plenty good enough - thx!

and if anyone could shed some light on how and when crime mob became ravers thatd be delightful

lol i heard this on the radio a few weeks ago and thought it was just a shoddy radio dj mashup

the first time i heard it was when it was performed at the Billboard Awards, i kept hoping the cameras would cut to a confused-looking Wiz in the audience

man if you're gonna use that sample, you better ride that sample the whole way through the song because literally nothing u make urself could come close to that sample

lolz this thread

totally creeped out that it's five years old tho :(

LOOK AT ALL THESE DAMES DAMN
