You know, most people think Prince started with 97 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 4: Purple Rain, and that's just not true. 98 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: It's four or. 99 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 4: Five albums in, like most people think Michael Jackson started 100 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 4: it off the Wall. That's four or five albums in 101 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 4: as a solo artist, right, So it's a weird conversation 102 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: to have. I remember having that conversation that somebody was 103 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 4: talking about the keyboard that Rick James stole from Prince, 104 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 4: but then he made Super Free and Prince didn't have 105 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 4: no Super Freak in No. 106 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: Nineteen eighty two eighty three. They have a cut like that. 107 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 4: So I think it's hard for people to look at 108 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 4: it like that because they'll look at it Rick James 109 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 4: like they'll look at Quick and they won't get the 110 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 4: brilliance of it. 111 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: I mean, people look at Rick James like. 112 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 4: A almost like cause like a joke because of the 113 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 4: Day Chapelle show.

I think he's 185 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 3: always wanted something like that to work. But his production 186 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 3: is very much rooted than Funk. Well. 187 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 4: I mean initially it was like dope breaks, right, it 188 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 4: was dope breaks. 189 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: But the death row time, you know, you could hear 190 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,359 Speaker 1: the Funk get loose. 191 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 4: And a lot of his ideas, the chronic you can 192 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 4: see he kind of stuck his foot in the water. 193 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 4: But I mean, I like to say he don't listen. 194 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 4: Somewhere along the line, things worked out for doctor dre 195 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 4: I mean, minus his years of studying. You know, he's 196 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 4: even before you know, his single comes out, g thing 197 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 4: comes out. You know, he's ten years deep in making records. 198 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: I think Doctor here is a phenomenal I'm gonna tell 199 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 3: you what, Doctor Drake got a thumb up on a 200 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 3: lot of people that too. What people don't understand is 201 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 3: that Interscope was a label that was ran by a 202 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 3: producer and an engineer. Jimmy Ivien is probably one of 203 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 3: the greatest engineers of all time. I think people don't, 204 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 3: you know, the average common person don't know that Jimmy 205 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 3: Ivien was engineer. 206 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: Well, he was greatest, one of the greatest. 207 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 3: He was one of the greatest, dude, he was Bruce S. 208 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 3: Brainstein's engineer. 209 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 4: I just wouldn't think of that as one of the 210 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 4: best mixed albums. No disrespect to Bruce Brainstein's music. 211 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 3: Man, Bruce. You know, that's a whole different genre of music. 212 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 3: So that's a whole different conversation. But Jimmy knows sonics. 213 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: Jim Jimmy understands Jimmy Jimmy bad as motherfucker, and. 214 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 3: Jimmy also understood the importance of having producer led camps. 215 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 3: He noticed that he recognizes the importance of the producer. 216 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 3: That's why if you notice that interscope for a long 217 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 3: time when they were in they hate they when they 218 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 3: had their successful run. He had gave all of these 219 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 3: producers these imprints and let them, you know, kind of 220 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 3: do their thing. He gave Timberland, templand had beat Club, 221 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 3: Doctor Dra had after mathun Older Don had his thing 222 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: over there. So he was very much in the given 223 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 3: producers because he understood you have to have a conductor. 224 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: I mean, especially hip hop. You know, starts with the DJ, 225 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 4: the producers, so that makes sense. But even all the 226 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 4: greatest musical labels, you know, Motown is you know, it 227 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 4: ain't just Buriers, Smokey Robinson, Smokey Robinson and. 228 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: The Funk Brothers. 229 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 3: It's that whole. 230 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: Backing band that they was writing and making the records with. 231 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 4: You know what, that's the court, the chef, the cook 232 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 4: is every dying Tenny restaurant that the actual recipe is important. 233 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, Shug didn't make a record, dude, But I think 234 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 3: Sugar understood the importance of the street aesthetics. 235 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: Well, I think Sugar was really a marketing genius to 236 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: his credit. 237 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he was, you know for him to kind 238 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 3: of take because I remember Snoop rapping before he became 239 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 3: you know this worldwide Mogo, you know this worldwide just 240 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 3: you know, major entertainer, probably the most the most popular 241 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 3: brand in rap music. 242 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 1: You know, not you can say the greatest hip hop 243 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: parties ever. 244 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 3: It's okay, you know, the greatest hip hop you know, 245 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 3: the greatest hip hop artist every right outside of Too Short, 246 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 3: But that's the whole nother conversation. But you know, Snoop's 247 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 3: lung Chevy and everything all goes back to pointers he 248 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 3: took from Sugar to Night. You know what I'm saying. 249 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 4: I think I think it's a combination of Doctor Dre's 250 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 4: music and should nice marketing, right, sure, I mean, I 251 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 4: mean I remember for sure, I remember Stories d seeing 252 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 4: them talking about you know, it was supposed to be 253 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 4: death Roll like Death Jam, and Sugar understood what it 254 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 4: needed to be called Death Row right as far as 255 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 4: the whole prison aesthetics. I mean, Sugar was smart changing 256 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 4: Snoop's name to Snoop Doggie Dog right, and Sugar understood 257 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 4: that you needed to bring the streets. You know, It's 258 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 4: crazy because I had a really deep thought that Boys 259 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 4: in the Hood was instrumental in what Death Row was 260 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,479 Speaker 4: about to do from a branding perspective. 261 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: Like once they saw the success of. 262 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 4: Boys in the Hood being this kind of inner city movie, 263 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 4: but it showcased certain parts, they realized at that point 264 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 4: they had to really showcase the culture because before that 265 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 4: you didn't see No Riders in music video. 266 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,720 Speaker 1: They wasn't the centerpiece. But after the movie Boys in. 267 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 4: The Hood and g Thing came out and they had 268 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,119 Speaker 4: all them low and you would just see Los Angeles 269 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 4: and all his glory, you know, the greatest points of it. 270 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 4: So I think that was a separation between Quick and 271 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 4: Dre at that time. I think the records were just 272 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 4: as good. I think Tonight is just as great of 273 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 4: a record as G Thing. I think Born and Raised 274 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 4: is just as great of a record as uh, you know, Dred. 275 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: I think he made the right records. But I think 276 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: what Dre. 277 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 4: And them did really well versus what Quick in them 278 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 4: did is Drake captured the essence of the culture visually. 279 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 3: When you think about DJ. 280 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: Quick too, remember he directed the video for G Thing. 281 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to think about it like this too. 282 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 3: Man one of the Quick's biggest records man out here 283 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,119 Speaker 3: in the West coast. Man, you know, outside of his classics, 284 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 3: Man was a Tony Tony Tony record. Right, Let's get 285 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: down record, Right, that was a phenomenal record, And I 286 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 3: think that that showcase quicks range man Quick also, man 287 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 3: had a lot to do with fifty cents record in 288 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 3: the club then the club record. Damn if I can't 289 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: do it record. You know, he's not mixing in there, 290 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 3: but he did put his hands on those records. And 291 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 3: me be being in the studio, you know, me being 292 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 3: in the studio real quick. I could hear certain things 293 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 3: on the records, like he kind of got this. You know. 294 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 3: He don't quantize his snares, just certain little things on 295 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 3: those records that make those records special that the average 296 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 3: person may not pay attention to. But that's just the 297 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 3: stuff that makes him great. Man. He is very, very 298 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 3: meticulous at certain things. Man, like his snares he actually 299 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 3: you know to where it'll be sound and fine. But 300 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 3: just the way he got a certain swing to him, 301 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 3: the way he coached the vocals in there. It's a man. 302 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 3: You get a lot going in the studio walk quick Man. 303 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 4: Style, you know, a lot of mixing, A lot of 304 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 4: producing is style. No, mixing is very much a part 305 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 4: of producing, even though it's not credited that way. But 306 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 4: it's all about style. Like Dre and Quick style is different. 307 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 4: But obviously when they come together, they meet in the 308 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 4: middle somewhere. 309 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: Man, that's my thing. Man, I'm gonna good days man 310 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 3: on games to rac chronicles this year.

Man, that dude is just he's 313 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 3: a brilliant dude. And I think a lot of times 314 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 3: him not getting the props he necessarily deserves kind of 315 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 3: his fault to a certain extent, to a certain degree, 316 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 3: it's his fault because to me, these dudes man out 317 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 3: here just don't produce enough records.

Right, they leave that and you know, 610 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: maybe they experienced success in the business. 611 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: It happened to Jelly world. 612 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 4: What happened in Battle Call where these guys are getting 613 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 4: fifty and one hundred thousand dollars a beat and then 614 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 4: that becomes the status quo. It's happening, honestly, big bro 615 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 4: in boxing, where you look at some of the like 616 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 4: the Deontay Wilder last fight.
