Kno › A Bold Statement!

Ok, so Iv’e just listened to Strange Journey Vol.2 in it’s entirety and I’m fucking speechless.. This thread is not to hate on any other producers in the game or something but just to show my appreciation to Kno.
Am I the only one who feels this way: Kno > Dj Premier, 9th Wonder, J.Dilla (I mention these 3 because they are very popular and respected). And this comes from a person who admires all 3 of them and Iv’e listened to almost all of their work!

I know they have produced some classic tracks and I give them props for that, but today, in 2009, I think that Kno is the producer who is cooking up the best beats (maybe it wasn’t fair to mention Dilla since he is dead but still).

Seriously, the beats on the new mix tape are ridiculous, for example Heart, Streets and Tear Trax. I mean, you fucking killed those instrumentals, revived them and then murdered them again in the most brutal fucking way I could imagine (yes, I like using these kinds of metaphors).

Anyways, I know that people on this board are giving props to QN5 artists like every second and maybe all these appreciation threads are annoying (what do I know) but as a fan you feel like you just have to show your appreciation, sometimes buying the CD isn’t enough Smile

Peace!

P.S. That Pit Stop skit was fucking hilarious!

I agree 100%
Kno is a genius….by far the best producer ever IMO.
What really sticks out is Knos ability to stray from what genre everyone else is sampling.
I was hooked from the first time i heard Will Rap For Food.
Now that album brings back so many memories it puts me in a different world when i play it.

kno has definitely surpassed all others in the game. its been hard for me to admit that he’s the GOAT (since i was partial to others), but the more I listen to his work, the less I can argue the fact. Kno is on his own level and no one can fuck with him
