To commemorate his new album... This dude, in my eyes, is the undisputed king of the beat. NO ONE does it better than him.
I credit Pete and C.L., the track 'T.R.O.Y.' more specifically, with being the first hip hop joint that got me into really paying attention to the lyrics, as opposed to just vibing to the music. I was about 10 or 11 when that came out, and it just spoke to me like nothing I've ever heard before.
I decided to go with the Jamaican flag in the background as it's part of his heritage. That, and I wanted something more iconic so it wouldn't clash with him so much.
This is dope....Da Chocolate Boy Wonder!!! I got to see Pete and Little Brother live in Charlotte last September....that show was sooo dope! (LB puts on one hell of a live show!!! If you haven't already and you ever get the chance to go and see Little Brother live....take it! You won't be disappointed!) I knew Pete's LP was droppin soon, when does it come out?
I love me some Pete, but I must say that IMO DJ Premier is the king of the beat! (Love his mixes and gotta love Primo's extraneous use of the bells!) Pete's definitely up there, along with Dilla, 9th Wonder, Madlib, Kanye, Timbaland, and The Neptunes.
I will admit, one of the only other dudes I hold in such a high regard is Preemo... And that was the best back in the day, like the early to mid 90's, when they were almost having this sort of quiet competition... They were doing and remixing EVERYONE'S beats back then, including each other's. That was seriously the Golden age for me.
