@JainalMomin I’m pissed at myself for watching this for as long as I did. 😓 This interaction went way longer than it needed to go. After the photo of her car & plate was taken that should’ve been the end of it.

@eval_hub This was corny

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

Yooooo, I’m trip’n!

I’ve won 3 Grammys (not 2) 😓

Now if the committee would just send my certificates & medal that would be cool

Not even going to ask for the trophies but that would be nice as well

Shout out to my youngest daughter Luca Delaney

Who could buy 3 🔥 outfits, outerwear & a pair of one of a kind footwear…

For $150 USD 🤩

That’s a talent in case you ain’t know, y’heard?!?

@JohnOre78840551 @theskitzo_ an interesting sentence then I highlight it

(If this makes sense) 🙃

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@JohnOre78840551 @theskitzo_ I buy (vinyl) records all the time

I’ve developed a sense of what to look out for when coming across used records

But my selection is very “random” when I’m working

It’s like starting to read a new book. I have no idea what the paragraph’s going to be but once come across

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@JohnOre78840551 @theskitzo_ Funny thing is I made this beat in 12 minutes in front of my guy Que.D who paid me a visit that day

Was his first & last time visiting me

He just so happens to be J. Dilla’s cousin + one of ‘Dilla’s “day ones”. They grew up together

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@JohnOre78840551 @theskitzo_ Second record I did the traditional “kick / snare” drum programming & added the congas for extra “texture”

Then I killed the kick & snare & made the “skipping bass line” to make the beat seem like it was faster than it actually was

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@JohnOre78840551 @theskitzo_ Nope. I own thousands of records most of which I’ve never listened to in my life

I grabbed the “guitar” record first & heard that song for the first time & at that moment I just slowed it down & looped it

Then the “percussion” record I grabbed next

But before I added the…

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

Back in my hey day I used to be the chop master…

Crazy because this was over 20 years ago

Was definitely ahead of my time back then but didn’t know it 😓

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

$OWL I need you to drop about $1.50 because dang! WTH?!? 📉

@theskitzo_ Thanks

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@ItsCR24 @theskitzo_ I agree

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@krackdemarco @theskitzo_ Thanks… I got way more

Like… a lot

[88-Keys @eightyocho]

@bboysburner @theskitzo_ I didn’t “think”. I just grabbed two records & applied my formula & voilà… Grammy
