DJ Premier Speaks On His And Jay-Z’s Musical Partnership (Video)

Jigga knows what he wants in a beat, and Preemo always knew how to deliver it. That’s what’s up. And that’s why the two always made beautiful music together!

There have been a million and one producer and MC combinations over the years, but none are quite like JAY-Z and DJ Premier. The Marcy legend and Gang Starr icon have produced nothing but fire over their brief stint of collaboration, first exploring their chemistry in 1996 for ‘Reasonable Doubt’ (“D’Evils,” “Friend or Foe,” “Bring it On”) and again for Hov’s sophomore LP, ‘In My Lifetime,’ Vol. 1. That album’s multi-part opening, “Intro/A Million and One Questions/Rhyme No More,” is a favorite—a song that Premier broke down in the latest installment of MASS APPEAL’s new series, “Off The Record.”

Torii Wolf – “Big Big Trouble” (Prod. By DJ Premier)

Sheeezzz! The scratches and that beat come in so hard. Dope out the gate, like a DJ Premier beat is apt to be, but then Torii Wolf coumes in with that haunting airy voice… nothing like the combination. Nothing can beat it. DJ Premier and Torii Wolf in “Big Big Trouble.” Torii’s “Flow Riot” is now available for pre-order at iTunes.

Mobb Deep – “Cop Hell” (Prod. By DJ Premier)

This joint is so ’90s! A step to the left style-wise for the Mobb. Up-tempo flow. Preemo beat work from Havoc and Prodigy (RIP) to beat up! Previously unreleased heat that was shelved when Ice-T caught mad bad heat for dropping “Cop Killer.”

THIS SONG WAS PULLED FROM THE “JUVENILE HELL” LP AFTER THE WHOLE ICE-T “COP KILLER” SONG WAS SHOCKING THE WORLD; SO MOBB DEEP’s LABEL 4TH & B’WAY REMOVED IT AS WELL…

SOME COPIES LEAKED, BUT MOST DJ’s DON’T HAVE IT.

ME, PRODIGY AND HAVOC GOT PULLED OVER BY THE COPS IN 1993 AND THEY WERE ON SOME FOUL SHIT, BUT WE WERE ABLE TO GET AWAY WITHOUT THEM FINDING OUT HOW DIRTY THE CAR WAS BACK THEN…

SO WE WROTE THIS SONG ABOUT IT…

HERE IT IS UNCUT…

WE ARE GONNA MISS YOU PRODIGY…(R.I.P.)

CONDOLENCES TO HIS FAMILY…

MC Eiht – “Got That” feat. DJ Premier (Prod. By Brenk Sinatra)

The push for that forthcoming “Which Way Iz West” is on. MC Eiht is out with another one. And he has the homie DJ Preemo with him doing the most on the Brenk Sinatra-produced track “Got That”… but not how you think. And WHY isn’t Premier scratching on this??? Well…

I’ve loved this track ever since the rough draft. When I was mixing the song down, Eiht kept saying “Got That” after the verses and I was going to put some scratches on it. I’m sitting at the board, saying the three lines to myself because I felt like it would fit in the blanks. I decided to go in the booth to record it and see if it would blend with the song. I’m not a fan of my own voice so I sent it back to Eiht for approval and his replay was literally GEAH.

Miguel – “2 Lovin U” (Prod. By DJ Premier) [Video]

Man hellyeah, HELLYEAH! Miguel and DJ Premier HAD to do a video for that “2 Lovin U” banger! Straightforward shooting in its approach and its messaging. Not subtle at all. It’s like if Michael Jackson (RIP) consulted on the video and said put some it don’t matter if it’s “Black Or White” (or gay or straight or Muslim…) in there. Get into this and groove with it. You KNOW you want to!

Miguel – “2 Lovin U” (Prod. By DJ Premier)

Wowwww…DJ Premier is an executive producer of VH1’s “The Breaks” series AND he is scoring the entire series. BANGING!!

Oh, okay, this post is supposed to be about Miguel on the Preemo-produced “2 Lovin U” song. And how do we know it’s a track by Preemo? It’s the signature scratching baby. You hear those ‘damn’ samples scratched into the hook? Well, the rough, eventually shelved, early version of this song was called “Damned.” So, naturally, Preem scratched the ‘damn’ thing the f**k up like you know he do!

They decided to keep that element. Dope music was the result. Nice collaboration!

Busta Rhymes – “Grinch 2000” feat. Jim Carrey (Prod. By DJ Premier)

maxresdefault

Ha! This is fun! Busta Rhymes this “Grinch 2000” for the “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” soundtrack back in 2000. Even got a feature on it from the film’s star, Jim Carrey. Produced by DJ Premier to boot. So how could this have not made it onto the final release? Who knows? But now it gets dropped, and appreciated. Happy Holidays!

DJ Premier On The State Of New York Rap (Video)

Preemo ONLY plays the bangers! That’s his lane, and it is not for the wack. And he is DEFINITELY qualified to be a gatekeeper for real Hip-Hop. To be clear, DJ Premier is not hating on that artist you like, but if he or she is wack… Oh well.

That sounds harsh. Preem explains it better. How he has always been, what he is into nowadays and more in the sit-down above.

A documentary with Jay Z and Nas is in the works, and DJ Premier also has a solo album—‘Last Session at 320’—on the way. He also discusses Desiigner, Dave East, Young M.A., and how he’s stayed relevant for multiple decades.

MC Eiht – “Runn The Blocc” feat. MayLAy (DJ Premier Remix)

Yessir! Brenk Sinatra, DJ Premier and MC Eiht have got history with each other AND on here. Let’s see what’s popping above with this “Runn The Blocc” joint stream. And check out Eiht chopping (with XXL Mag in an interview) below.

When I originally got the beat from Brenk (Sinatra), rather than do something that glorified hustling, I wanted to drop something more along the storyline of how it’s so stressful in the streets. Then Premier sent MayLAy and I a beat and it just fit my vision of how the game used to be perfectly; knowing hustling is still a necessary evil and having to deal with everything that comes with it. Preemo heard the final product and said it needed to be on the album; so now it’s official.

DJ Premier – “Tiimmy Turner” (Preemix)

dj-premier-flips-desiigners-timmy-turner-w-south-park-sample

Okay, so a significant portion of the blog-o-sphere considers this rehash of Desiigner’s “Tiimmy Turner” a ‘shots fired’ situation…the shots being let off by the legend that did the joint, DJ Premier. Listen for yourself, and make up your own mind. But the track bangs (with that “Twilight Zone” rip in there). And dropping in that South Park sample, “TIMMY!” Well, that’s just… dope!! Haaaa!

Torii Wolf – “Shadows Crawl” (Prod. By DJ Premier)

I’m talking in my sleep
And my shadows crawl out of me

Wooooo! That’s a cold azz way to start a jawn. Well, those lines, and that scratch-attacked beat Primo put down a-la classic Group Home ‘Livin Proof’ style. Enjoy the alt Hip-Hop/Soul chill Torii Wolf is putting down online as “Shadows Crawl” up and down your spine in the dopest way!
