….using a computer keyboard instead of a midi controller doesn’t make any sense to me… there’s no way that’s good for the keys and i doubt it properly represents the velocity of each note since it’s not weighted. and if you don’t know what you played just go to the score editor and it’ll tell you exactly what notes you played, but you’d have to be able to read music notation and if you play only by ear you’ll probably be stuck in 4/4 with no idea what key signature it is so I doubt we’ll be hearing anyone sing over these beats, but they’re perfectly fine for any rapper which i assume is his intention.
and yes, that was a terribly worded run on sentence. and no, i’m not a hater or trying to say i’m better than him, I just think his production technique is unusual.
Invest in a midi keyboard dog! Using the computer keyboard to play your notes doesn’t make you fresh…with that said, I enjoyed the beats myself and can relate to the “playing by ear” technique
The Bin Laden joint was cool n all, but I don’t think I’ve ever really cared for any of dude’s beats. And this hasn’t exactly changed my mind.
Green should stick to mixtapes/radio.
