What did you think of Q-Tips process for song concepts? Let us know!
@wisdombeats44765 жыл бұрын
I love how Q-Tip has utilized 3-bar loops and time signatures other than the traditional 4/4 for creating timeless beats/production. He is a huge influence on my production to this day. We are from that same generation of hip hop so he speaks my language fluently. Let's make certain we give him his flowers RIGHT NOW!
@KardiFan20005 жыл бұрын
Q-Tip's space technique changed hip-hop. It's one thing to sample a jazz record and make that the foundation of your music, but it's another thing to borrow a formula from jazz, apply it to hip-hop, and apply it WELL. That technique was also brilliantly adopted by J Dilla, The Roots, etc.

It was commercially well-received, while being musically so high-tier. Isn't that all musician's dream? To make something that you are proud that you made it (or at least, not shameful about it) and still loved by most.

When I was 15, I made a pause tape out of Spinning Wheel by Blood Sweat and Tears. I had no idea it was actually a thing with anybody else. It was just the only way I had to turn BS&T into some hip hop. LOL

This is my first time seeing this interview, I'm just 45 minutes in as I'm typing this up. So far, great conversation 👌, I'm a super huge Tribe fan their music is so phenomenal. I love how Qtip incorporates jazz music into Tribe and his solo music. I love jazz music. I have to say this audience is so mundane, I love the part when Tip asked "am I boring, sorry if I'm boring you guys", I would have yelled out "no way thanks for being here!!". I love the part at 1:28:44 mark when he started going over, "Life is better." I love that whole CD by Tip "life is better" is my song. That is a shame the audience don't really know his music or don't care to know.

'Real' record collectors know, Joni Mitchell makes amazing music. I'm with Tip, it's OK to make beats and have broad musical tastes.

Hissing Of Summer Lawns was the one that blew me away. Had been meaning to get into her work for a while, but that was the one that REALLY hit. She’s a genius.
