I want your hip hop tunes in the BOOM BAP hip hop sub genre.

Boom BAP was a 1990s distinct production style built on
contrasts. DJ Premier practically invented it.


MUSIC PRODUCTION OF BOOM BAP HIP HOP:

.1 The drums and Beat : Were dirty, dusty. Snares lined with sand paper
Sometimes you can hear the crackle of vinyl or other distortion.

.2 the music above the drums was clean, pristine, jazzy
, cool.


IMAGERY IN BOOM BAP HIP HOP VIDEOS :

Reality and Realism of everyday life.Rap stars walking around wearing their winter coats,
normal clothes.NO Bentley, money, or bling.A preference for black and white.Grimy , dirty, winter.
Blocks and poverty, no day glow clothes. 1980s MC Hammer was long dead.

My contribution is a perfect example...


Milk Bone- "keep It Real!"

Boom Bap producers were into Jazz.Contrasting Cool jazz with harsh
Hip Hop beats.

here's some better examples...


INL ft Pete Rock - "Faking Jaxx"



A perfect example below.....black and white..
winter, everyday new york life ...


Tribe Called Quest - "Electric relaxation"




One hit wonder below, but there's still, the Upright Jazz
bass line, the jazz horns, the murky dusty drums...


Simple E - "Play my Funk"




"Play my Funk" lifted it's sample/reinterpretation from
the opening seconds of the jazz record below by Herbie Hancock
before adding the dirty hip hop drums...

Herbie Hancock - "Oliloqui Valley"

they picked a sub genre of rock.

If it was just the rock thread
it would encompasse everything from dylan to black sabbath
and Europe.

Fallacy feat. tubby T - Big n Bashy ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9707&Focus=289410#Comment_289410 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9707&Focus=289410#Comment_289410 Tue, 05 Apr 2011 14:07:38 -0700 arklight that Bashy song.

Back to the classic jazz/hip hop Boom bap...
This was last time Female MCs didn't have to take their clothes
off to promote records and realied only on their MC skills....


Bahamadia ft. K-Swift & Mecca Starr - "3 the hard way"





Black moon did a sort of more spacey jazzy take on
boom bap, but the lyrics were as new york
orientated as normal....

Black Moon - "Who got the props?"




Black Moon - "I got cha open?"




The song that always reminds me of bitter winters,
on the bus, head bobbing to a mellow hip hop song...

Mic Geronimo - "Masta IC"

How has Nas not been listed yet

Straight Out the Fucking Dungeon

And a seconding of Mobb Deep, fellow denizens of Queensbridge.

After 1994 it is hard to think of this sound as a distinct thing because it inflects everything else. Particularly anything New York. Very blurry. Mos Def's first album uses it, in fact a lot of his style seems to come from trying to carve out unique territory beyond the 1994 sound while still being based directly off of it. Like "New World Water." The texture is there but the tone is new. Really, anything spare and jazzy borrows from here.

Anyway here is vaguely fitting entry from a more deliberately revivalist Brooklynite, the fucking brilliant Von Pea:

Death metal, black metal, folk metal, doom metal, sludge metal, grindcore, metalcore, numetal, power metal, glam metal, hardcore, thrash, progressive death metal, pop punk, post punk, emotional hardcore (not to be confused with emo as we know it today), crust punk, folk punk, psychobilly, etc. And I don't even know that much about metal/punk, I just listen to it sometimes.

Metal subgenres

Punk subgenres


Sadly, wikipedia's entry for hip-hop isn't as well organized. Someone get on that? ]]> http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9707&Focus=289917#Comment_289917 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9707&Focus=289917#Comment_289917 Sat, 09 Apr 2011 06:18:35 -0700 William George http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9707&Focus=290128#Comment_290128 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=9707&Focus=290128#Comment_290128 Sun, 10 Apr 2011 14:00:08 -0700 arklight @dorkmuffin...

yeah, there's sub genres within sub genres within some forms
of music.

I mean most of the genre lists for hip hop
aren't complete.It's too big.if we really want to be pedantic House music
is definitely a sub genre of Hip Hop looking at it's production.
It too has a huge amount of styles

@William George...

Mad love for the teacher KRS1!

But back to the beats! The alt hip hop group, The Pharcyde
made this song below which is on pretty much everyone's
mixes of hip hop love songs.

awesome song...


Pharcyde - "She said"






With Queen Latifah There's a generation gap,some people
have always known her as an actor , and don't know
she was one of the great female Hip Hip MCs.

The track below uses a particular hip hop production technique
of the 1990s boom bap era. That is pass filtering most of
the high frequencies in a song leaving a rumbling distant
wash which the MC rhymes over.

Last modern occasion this was used, was in the break of
the song "American Boy" by Estelle ...



Queen Latifah - "Just Another Day"






Digable planets, cruelly forgotten, over talented group
from the 1990s who liked jazz.Alot...

Digable Planets- "Where I'm From"





Hip Hop production fiends who took their
logo from a Jazz record. The Beatnuts...

Beatnuts - "Props over Here"
