While I respect ALL of DJ Premier's classic production, I skipped posting the last couple episodes of his web-series, So Wassup?. He recently covered the D'Angelo and Janet Jackson tracks, which aren't amongst my favorite cuts from his catalog. BUT... we're back with Episode 11, where Premo breaks down the making of the Gang Starr classic, "Take It Personal." So, let's get into it... DJ Premier breaks down the equipment he used - the SP 1200 - which ended up being the very last time he used it in his career. That dirty drum break he claims to have had going back to his time in Texas, and that he never made a cadence of a drum break like that! He got Ralph McDaniels (Classic Concepts) to do the video for the song, as well as "Code of the Streets" later on from Hard to Earn. He also explains the role "Take It Personal" played in also making the track "DWYCK" with Nice & Smooth, as well as moving from the A Room in D&D Studios to the legendary B Room. So much history, DJ Premier is a wealth of knowledge; one of the most impressive and most humbling things about this legendary producer!
