Kanye keeps rappers off his CD, Yung Joc goes old-school

by FULLMETAL

MONDAY JULY 2, 2007

Kanye keeps rappers off his CD?

Kanye West seems prepared to make Graduation a legendary cd, following the “no other rappers on my Lp” style, and not including any MC’s on his latest album. Not even Young Jeezy, who supplied the ad-libs for his single “Can’t Tell me Nothin”.

“I don’t have any rappers on my album,” West told MTV. “Not just because I’m trying to make a statement of being an MC — I want people to get into my album and zone out. You never asked Marvin Gaye, ‘You have such and such doing a background track?’

I do have an ad-lib from [Young] Jeezy. That’s because he has that line, ‘Hey Snowman, can I get an ad-lib?’ So I asked for an ad-lib. Where the rappers do appear is on the remixes.”

Yung Joc kicks it Old-School

Yung Joc has done many things to stand out as an artist. From his trademark flow, to his giant H chain, he has no limits on being different. Joc has now taken it a step further, as he’s gone old school with his hairstyle, rocking the infamous “Gumby” cut.

“I wanted my own lane. One thing I’ve learned: You gotta know when the recycling curve takes place,” said Joc to MTV. ” Every 10 years, something comes back in style. Like look at 10 years ago, Master P was the biggest thing out. He was the Ice Cream Man.

“His ad-lib was ‘ugggh!’ Ten years later, Young Jeezy is hot, he’s the Snowman. His ad-lib is ‘yeeeahhh!’ My haircut is older than 10 years, so you can say the recycling curve comes in 10s and 20s [year increments].”

“I knew nobody else was gonna be bold enough to do it,” said Joc of his new -do. “I was on 2.7 million Web pages within two days of me wearing the ‘H’ in public. I did the research.” “I’m going to get people talking about my haircut; that was always one of my favorite haircuts,”

Yung Joc’s sophomore Cd, “Hustlenomics” is due to release sometime this summer.

hip hop artists aint dead. there is still many good artists and music. its the public eye that has killed it and the internet. everyone has a opionion right and coz they can get on the net and forums etc they download everything and talk shit about it. hip hops like a big fucking hurricane sept its getting bigger by the hour . i buy my favorite artists albums and if its not a good album i wont buy the next one

I think what kanye and joc doin is a good idea. Both of them is tryin to do somethin different but that joc haircut aint really gonna do it. I like what Kanye doin though cuz when u buy a cd nowadays every song got them featuring somebody else. He just want people to buy his album for him and not for who else is on it
