don't fall for this other fake snippet: http://vocaroo.com/i/s1FiRW66ReDL
its from an unreleased featuring lol

daaamn .. that cupid song sounds crazy

[King Lance]

500K in today's climate is almost impossible tbh, Even drake needed 2 HUGE hits (1 rap & 1 rnb) before the official release date and he"only" did 600k... kanye hasn't been able to do it since LR/808, jay-z struggled to reach the gold plaque first week and lil wayne is struggling with his singles (album pushed back)

[Josh]

who gives a shit about drake.
i think its possible b
Kendrick is the most hyped rapper with EM atm

[King Lance]

500K is a lot tbh, Even drake needs 2 HUGE hits (1 rap & 1 rnb) to crack the 600k

Yeah, in today's standards I think 350k is a pretty reasonable assumption.

Only difference is if different demographics vibe with this it will take him approximately 6-7 weeks to reach platinum.

yeah I def agree. He successfully blended several hip hop styles with gkmc and this is what made the album that popular imo. You had the weird outkast stuff from the south, the typical west coast music (2nd part of maad city), the club song (swimming pools), the song with drake, the story telling songs, the lyrical songs, the ignorant banger(backseat),..

Anybody wanna hit me up with some of Rahki's work? Don't think I've heard his production before

[King Lance]

Holy Shit if this is for kdot album...


Kendrick x George Clinton (prod flying lotus) ????

[Raul]

I'm sorry, but... who is George Clinton?

[King Lance]

I'm sorry, but... who is George Clinton?

rly? ^^ hes a fucking p-funk legend. Dr Dre sampled almost all his beats for Doggystyle/ The Chronic.

"Rapper Dr. Dre sampled most of Clinton's beats to create his G-Funk music era. In 1999, Clinton collaborated with Lil' Kim, Fred Durst, and Mix Master Mike for Methods of Mayhem's single "Get Naked".

Displaying his influence on rap and hip hop, Clinton also worked with Tupac Shakur on the song "Can't C Me" from the album All Eyez on Me; Ice Cube on the song and video for "Bop Gun (One Nation)" on the Lethal Injection album (which sampled Funkadelic's earlier hit "One Nation Under A Groove"); Outkast on the song "Synthesizer" from the album Aquemini; Redman on the song "J.U.M.P." from the album Malpractice; Souls of Mischief on "Mama Knows Best" from the album Trilogy: Conflict, Climax, Resolution; Killah Priest on "Come With me" from the album Priesthood, and the Wu Tang Clan on "Wolves" from the album 8 Diagrams."

Can't C Me is fucking dope. Also, definitely looking forward to this.

Clinton couldn’t help but rave about Kendrick’s comprehension of music, which was what he says immediately blew him away.

“I loved working with Kendrick Lamar, it was like working with my old friends. He’s so young but he’s done paid attention, he done studied. The same way it was with Eric Clapton and hearing him talk about blues, I felt embarrassed,” Clinton explained, before adding, “Cause they knew more about Robert Johnson then I did.”

As the principal architect, better yet, Godfather of the P-Funk movement in the 1970s, Clinton has churned out a flood of stone cold classics, from works with his P-Funk All-Stars to being recruited by Red Hot Chili Peppers, 2Pac, Ice Cube and the list just goes on from there.

Earlier this year, word began spreading about the icon possibly being involved in Kendrick’s new album. And though he was reluctant to share any details about the music they worked on, Clinton couldn’t stop raving about the good kid MC. “Styles change like that, paying attention to Eric Clapton or Kendrick Lamar or any of those people that’s got information about other genres in a lifetime, which Kendrick Lamar got. He knew so much about not only us, but [also] Sly [& the Family Stone], the Ohio Players— he pays attention.”
