Hip Hop producer 9th Wonder on his trip to London in April 2009. He talks to SoulCulture.co.uk about the art of sampling, why producers that sample are misunderstood by older generations, current work with Wale and David Banner - and why putting his face out there is so important now in an age where, often, music is seen before it's heard.

    wanna start off saying your one of the BEST producers to ever to chop records and i think you style is dope. i make beats from scratch and i also sample. when i sample, it's just for fun and i got my style from studying you, Madlib, *J Dilla* and MF Doom. right now i'm working on a mixtape and spreading the word around the internet about what i'm doing. i hope people take notice.......1

  • hey man, i phrased ...

    hey man, i phrased my statement wrong... i'm not hating on 45 king... i only used stan as an example because its so well known, and most people talking S**t on here wouldn't know what i meant if i referenced something not so mainstream. 45 found a nice sample and used it well, but he didn't chop it up or anything, and the point i was trying to make was when a sample gets seriously chopped up, it practically becomes an instrument in itself.

    but no disrespect to 45, he's definitely nice.

A lot of cats don't know Fruity Loops can do 1/2 the S**t it does because they don't know what they're doing! PLUS U GOTTA BUILD UP YOUR SOUND BANK! I know cats w/over $10 g's worth of gear & their product sounds like $2!!! Read your manuals & study your tutorials...then it's all on u! 1 LUV!
