>(being more on the hip hop side and all). I like it a lot, but one thing
>i found a little lame was the stuff he was scratching over top of it
>all. I'm pretty sick of all the same samples off of all those DJ
>Rectangle and other assorted battle records anyone can get. If you are
>making tracks you should be scratchin' on all sorts of stuff you had to
>dig for and that hasn't been used a million times. Leave the battle
>records to the battle djs. Kid Koala's mixed tape is a perfect example
>of heading through uncharted waters...There are exceptions to the rule

>and they twist that shit around so ass backwards you don't know what's
>happening. It seemed to me Cam's stuff got slightly gratuitous at times.

>Don't get me wrong, pick it up, it's fat as hell. I might be biased
>cause i practice with those (same samples) records everyday...
