Kanye & Jay-Z sample Flux Pavilion

[Maccaveli]

Off the new Kanye & Jay-Z album. Not a huge fan of Flux but I've always thought this was one of his better tunes...

Thoughts?

[pompende]

shit verses. and fucking slow.

"black cars, black on black," is jayz biting wiley?

[fractal]

Or the dream? "all black, everything..."

[NRHc]

thats complete shit wtf

[ChadDub]

Dude the mixdown is fucking terrible, I hope it's just youtube making it sound like that because if else that is some serious bullshit.

[MKRUGGER]

I love how they give no credit to Flux on MTV ; http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/166770 ... onds.jhtml

They didn't even sample it, they basically just took it and rapped over it.. I hope Flux gets some cash for it / publicity at the least? ..

That was also my favorite Flux song, he ruined it.. Just like he ruined Forever Young by Alphaville.


If this is how they are trying to bring Dubstep into the mainstream, it won't work, because it sounds like crap.. So no worries about that.

Didn't they just sample the same tune as flux, lol

[aesthesis]

Not a fan, as i can't stand Kayne' vocals. Not diggin' the sample (Flux in general) as well.

[mymatedave]

i swear music is becoming so dumbed down.. This is awful.

[-[2]DAY_-]

bad (and not in the good sense)

[Dub_freak]

pretty terrible

[wobbles]

sounds shit

[Sexual_Chocolate]

wow.... i had a fair idea that it was that tune.... and somehow theyve managed to take shit TO THE NEXT LEVEL!

[vishes]

Massive wank tune.

[triggy]

Terrible,
And that panning on the sample is the most irritating thing I've ever heard,

Im not a fan of Flux's track but its 10 times better than this, Even the production seems crap in this

[prism]

need a puke emoticon

[Naan_Bread]

shit in -> shit out

[pompende]

Didn't they just sample the same tune as flux, lol

i was convinced flux had recorded that vocal himself for some reason?

from what i can tell from that MTV article a producer simply remade the flux p song at a different tempo and so that it had more of an "ill hiphop feel."
the production is very very poor, however, so that's quite the joke to me.

[reprisal]

Sounds cheap and pretty lazy, really bad record! Hating aside bet Flux is pretty stocked.

[Inanimate]

This can't be Kanye AND Jay-Z...It's so poor.

I never knew Flux recorded those vocals himself.
