Now this is dope. During the Stupendous Adventures of Marco Polo beat showcase in Toronto; Marco Polo, Rich Kidd, Frank Dukes and MoSS were all given the same sample (Steve Davis’ All Because She’s Gone) to flip. Some of the older dopeboyz/girlz will recognize the sample from Gangstarr’s The Planet.
Hip Hop, Video

Frank dukes was ill…but the standout was def. mr. marco polo..flip was 2dope
Rich Kidd snapped
Rich Kidd’s flip was my favorite.
FUCK YOU SHAKE
Marco fuckin polo!!!!!
That announcer dude is annoying as fuck.
frank dukes and moss were fucking nasty
whoooo marco was nuts too
DAMN 3rd guy went off! all were dope though. agree with GR marco’s did stand out the most
that lupe bmf freestyle is so dope
:)
Rich Kidd’s was the best imo. But they were all dope.
Not really feeling this video. They should have had thought about getting their swagger levels and gear up a lot more before they made this video. I mean, how do these cats expect to mess with top lyricists like Lil Wayne, Flocka or French Montana?
^ gotta be the most random troll ever. can’t even just ask where max b is.
shit was too sick tho. the scene in toronto is bangin every weekend.
Robbie with the SMH post in this thread.
Duke Not for nothing, but I agree with Robbie Maynard. I mean, yes we do work together. I mean he is my boss since robbie is the CEO of Hood Trife DVD. All I am saying is Hip Hop is not about this low budget isht. Now you are only hot if you got fly cars dope women all wild gangster isht going on in your videos. Dont hate the player I mean. Just hate the Game!
HoodTrife DVD…..Coming to a Hood near you. Will you represent your hood the trife way? August DVD out now!
wow most ignorant shit i ever read, anybody know the acutal sample they used i wanna try and flip it myself.
im into the producers n stuff, but i dnt think i could have made it thru that whole set with that host!
Rich Kidd’s was the best, I could imagine a rapper like Dom Kennedy spitting over that shit…. MoSS’s was the worst, other two were just as great as each other really.
Shiiitittttt. Who went last? Moss? Kid is bananas I mean damnnnnnnnnnn
Nah I think MoSS was up first man… Marco Polo was last.
^
Marco Polo. Dude is insane
Sampling is dope and all but I personally prefer in composing your own stuff. Maybe I just find sampling kind of tough and irritating, but I enjoy arranging my own stuff more. Marco Polo’s went the hardest probably, but I feel Rich Kidd had the dopest one.
Damn! they were all dope and unique with their drums and sample chops. But if I have to…
Marco Polo > Rich Kidd > Frank Dukes > MoSS
Their drums were boring to me. Very simple patterns used. Simple snares and kicks. Only thing they did was switch the samples up some.
I like how the first minute of the video is just the host repeating the same shit. I’m pretty sure they understood you the first time, you fuckin irritating motherfucker.
HANDS DOWN: Marco Polo and Rich Kidd had the two cleanest beats on that stage. Period.
RichKidd’s joint was intricate and creative. So was Marco’s. But Marco’s had the energy you need for a battle. A producer always considers the circumstances and the objective before makin music for a particular occasion… THAT’S why Marco won.
But the crowd was gonna vote for him, no matter what. Know that.
How do these no-name rappers (Heck, I never heard of em) expect to sell looking the way they look. I mean, I did not really see anyone wearing a shirt worth over $100. Their ice on their necks and wrists and earings didnt shine bright. And Is it me or did you see at least 1 exotic car in this video?
When will these lames learn, swagger sells. No one cares about lyrics or beats. Its only about swag! Swagger is here to stay, and this video is out….next!
HAHAHA im bangin my head hard on the left
shut up ^
Marco Polo is a beast. There are some dope posts on him @ http://www.sacredstitch.com
