Fuck a beat...

[The Honeless Beard]

-yeah yeah, so, man, you got the on beat, and the off beat, you know? you got that boom-boom, right? when the beat goes up, you hit the stressor note - the hiss, the pop, the snap crackle of it - and you let that happen when the beat hits, right? you hit that shit square on, you feel me?

but then some people like to make it behind the beat, like, a bit behind it - trailing, you know? you listen to the new shit, the new shit from new york or los angeles, yeah, it's all trailing - that's the way the game is heading, you know? so guys like DMX and Mac Dre, those dudes - man, they flow all over the beat, feel me? i don't think this DMX guy is gonna last, between you and me, but Fiend - man, you heard There's One In Every Family shit? that Smokefest Underground shit? ah nah, nah, that ain't Fiend - that's that young blood, Snoop Dogg. anyway yeah man, Dogg can flow over the beat for sure, too.

anyway man, that's all i got for you. god bless you, man, and god bless americ-
