Pete Rock speaks on Andre 3000s new album :
"Now im a producer, and what i hear on this album
is amazing. Some of yall ears been lost but as a
producer what i hear? Sounds INCREDIBLE! Sometimes
embracing a different side of a person isnt a bad thing. In this
business when you been doing the same thing forever you can
get tired of it and wanna go left, nothing wrong with that. We
all need that support sometimes. We had jazz musicians put
albums out like this, why not except when 3 stacks do it? I
mean i hear amazing samples on this album (fire) BEATS!! I listen
to his last raps on that kanye joint all the time. One of the
souths greatest MC's. But i copped this album and im listening to it and you know what? I like it so far. Congratulations on this new journey and i believe real
musicians will like this"

What was the first Hip-Hop album you bought?

In 1995, 2Pac began work on the infamous "All Eyez On Me" album. As reported yesterday, Pac recorded "Ambitionz Az A Ridah", "2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted" and "I Aint Mad At Cha" during his first studio session since being released from Clinton Correctional Facility.
After the historic recording session, Pac met up with Faith Evans and spent a nice relaxing night with her. (Via Bomb 1st) 👀 Faith ran after 2Pac to his hotel room multiple times.
It was in this moment 2Pac told Faith about wanting to make a diss record against The Notorious B.I.G. Pac told her the sample he was going to use, which was Dennis Edward's "Don't Look Any Further." 2Pac would later go on to record the original "Hit Em Up" later that month in October 1995. This version remained unreleased and wasn't used for "All Eyez On Me."
When Faith went back to New York, she told Biggie that Pac was going to make a diss record over that sample so Biggie and Junior Mafia took the sample for the "Get Money Remix" which dropped a week and a half before "All Eyez On Me".
This incident would infuriate Pac to the point where he went back and had the beat reproduced by Johnny J and recorded all new lyrics over the beat with the Outlawz. And then he would flip the "Get Money" line into "Take Money" as a direct shot towards that record. Long story short, it was these actions that spawned the "Hit Em Up," we all know. If the Beat was never stolen, Pac would have left the 1995 version unreleased and would have never remade it in mid 1996.
