Description
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.

Cool textures, they add to the warmth instead of distraction from it like a lot of them do.

gorgeous piece, gotta love Pete Rock and CL, but the black blots behind his head makes it look like he's been shot.... might want to do something about that, but otherwise this is gorgeous bro.

i'm jamaican
and didnt know he had jamaican heritage
then again
a ton of important people in hip hop were jamaican/decended from jamaicans

You're damn right... Hip hop itself has deep roots with it too.

yep yep
quite so
almost too much music can attribute some relations to jamaica
you know punk and hip hop share some of the same roots because of that?

the only song on the album that I don't feel is with Chip Fu & RenΓ©e Neufville. though people say 'We Roll' is awful I think the beat is superb but you know Jim Jones can't rap for shit haha.
great piece man. I ordered the 12" today, should be here next week!

I dig that track... It gets a little weird toward the end, but I like it. Best Believe is ridiculous!

Yeah. When I crank Pete Rock it makes me wonder why people hug Kanye's nuts so tightly. Shits beyond reasonable.
This is ill man. Slick per usual.
