    Top Hip Hop Drum Kit?

    imo every hiphop drum sample cd i heard sounds weak, the release on the sounds are to short and they have little impact, plus they sound very digital. i would much rather have a collection of my own vinyl samples.

    4th deciple Killah Preist Beats Style..

    just cause kanye produce's for 'everybody' don't make him greater than the rza. rza isnt in his prime as of late, but the production on his last album was greater than kanye's whole career(and i like kanye). give kanye and rza the same soul sample, its a fact that rza will flip the iller beat...
