I was just listening to MPTOM,no actually I was listening to the inferior MOP spin-off of the song called Nine and 2 Clips On Me but they used that beat. That beat is dope on so many levels. No other hip hop beat is in its league, You got these 100,000 dollar producers like Kanye and Neptunes and Swiss Beats but they can't even touch that beat. They couldn't even sample a beat that dope. The only beats thats remotely on its level is Snoop Dog's Shiznit,BDPs Bridge Is Over, and Megalon's Street Soldier and 12 Disciples. Anyone agree?

Mind's Playing Tricks is up there but The World Is Yours, or Luchini, is probably my favorite beat.

I know, but you usually only bump West Coast bay ish. I guess because that song is old as fuck that you'd bump it, but still...
Also, you agreed with Hyphy (not sure if that was just because you knew him) on the Nas thread; I though Illmatic had a couple of beats better than that

Back in the mid 90's rapcity played good east, so we knew what to look for, now we are pretty clueless to what's good.

Yeah, EastCoast is pretty booboo right now. I'm way more into the Midwest boom-bap sound right now. But if you're looking for East Coast dopeness, checkout (songs) Say Goodnight (prod. DJ Premier) by REKS; it has that vintage Preemo sound. Also, check out the album "The Blaqprint" produced exclucively by DJ Premier. If you like old school Preem ish, you'll like both of these

That Say Goodnight is a good track, his flow reminds me of someone, but I can't place it. Is that a Ben Davis shirt he's sportin' in the video, I thought that brand went out of buisness.

I listen to what ever sounds good in my car which slaps fosgate 15 sub and that east coast ish don't got long/low enough bass line for 15s. they are good for 6x9s and 10s i like low and ground shakin shit. southern and west got that shit on lock and occasionally the other regions drop some stuff like do or die but for the most part it lies in the west and south

That beat is CLASSIQUE! Definitely a Top 10 contender. TROY is most definitely competition. With both all you need is the first few notes and you know it when you hear it.
Dre, Timbo, Dilla, Pete, Primo, Muggs, & 9th have given us some wonders to behold haven't they.
However Statik is my favorite beat on The Sun Rises in the East.
