Talk:DJ Premier

message: No need to merge them. It would make either article incredibly long and unassimilated. Lajbi 18:10, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

message: As I think, he uses Primo as in Spanish "Cousin", I wonder where you got Premo from. Coming from Premier it would be pronounced differently, wouldn't it?!
Primo/Premo is just a nickname shortening of Premier. There's no specific spelling I think.. PCP MC 12:23, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Premo vs Primo 

message: Why is it listed as New York even thought the article states that he is originally from Houston, Texas? Is it because stylistically he is seen as a New York-esque producer?
Some say DJ Premier is one of the (if not THE) greatest producer of all time. What are your thoughts on this? - Srivatsan
:You are free to believe what you want as long as the article itself stays neutral and objective. Not that I would not tend to agree with you... --80.132.224.254 21:47, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

message: in the track mos def makes reference in the track Mathematics he says ...Beats by Su-Primo.. is he refering to DJ Premier? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.15.183.0 (talk) 06:46, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  suprimo? 

message: It says in the article that he plays the melody backwards during the second part of the song. This is inaccurate. He uses completely different samples in the first and second parts.
Multiple beats
“Jay-Z's "A Million and One Questions" (flips halfway through changing from a light preemo beat, to a dark bass headnodder)″
This is also innacurate as this is not two beats in the same song - there are two different songs on the track and it is a progression into 'Rhyme No More'. The track is 'Intro/A Million and One Questions/Rhyme No More'. I removed this text.

message: the article in about.com is actually written by 1 editor and those are his favorites. One guy isn't notable enough to add as saying that Dj Premier is the no 1 producer.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.166.189.2 (talk) 18:57, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

message: "When DJ Premier sampled an obscure electronic funk song (Jean-Jacques Perrey's "E.V.A.") from the 1970s to construct Gang Starr's 1991 hit "Just to Get a Rep," he achieved a water-like effect."
The "water-like effect" is already in the original sample. DJ Premier may have equalized or otherwise processed the sample to bring out the effect, but that's it. If no one objects I am for deleting this misinformation. Anyone who would like to check if I am right or wrong can listen to the sample, for instance here: http://www.90bpm.net/users/monox/mp3/eva.mp3

thread_title:  water-like effetc created by DJ Premier? 

message: The section concerning the use and manipulation of samples is vital to understanding how DJ Premier works. Why was it deleted?! Peace. —MuzikJunky (talk) 07:14, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Why was the section about his use of atonal samples deleted?

message: you dont describe mozart as a white composer.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.73.107.226 (talk) 04:29, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  why state that his african american. 

message: Although I agree that primo is indeed one of the best producers, some of the statements in this article are very obviously biased. Here's one example:
"Also from the Gang Starr Foundation, Premier would produce and supervise Group Home's Livin' Proof; although overlooked at the time of its 1995 release, the album has since come to find similar acclaim.[1] Many Hip-Hop enthusiasts talk of Premier as a legend because of his contribution to Hip-Hop music."
I guess it's mainly the weasel words that are the problem - Drthatguy (talk) 10:08, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  A bit bias 

message: Why does MoSS redirect to DJ Premier? They are 2 completely different producers... 
MoSS produced tracks for Vinnie Paz, Eternia and other underground MCs like them (Category:albums produced by Moss) This should be fixed.
Thanks, FOsk8 (talk) 04:20, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I have already tried to write a stub on MoSS for people to add to, but it just got redirected here again. Maybe someone should devise an informative MoSS page, with references and a discography, and post it up. Maybe then it won't get redirected. MoSS and DJ Premier are not the same person, redirectin MoSS here is just misleading; I would much rather the article just be deleted rather than redirected, if we can't get a decent MoSS article written. -220.245.253.81 (talk) 03:04, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
