Teach yourself and stop begging for help. That's not how life works. If that was the case, i would not be working and just ask people for money.
Boy I tell you, why is it when anyone asks anything about rap/hip hop a bunch of assholes have to come reply with a real stupid remark? and you people know who you are! If you dont want to help the man out then dont post and shut the fuck up!

blueroommusic said:ha...I kid, I kid...I wasn't making a stupid remark because he's asking about hip-hop...I made a stupid remark because he's asking how to fit a vocal into a mix where everything is panned up the middle....that's like asking how to fit a cat meowing into a 3 piece metal band...
here's a solution for you...STOP SAMPLING!!! Beats are cool and all that, but why do most beatmakers have to use samples? I'll tell you why: it's because they are too lazy to come up with something of their own, and because it's faster....I can't tell you how many times I've been asked to record rapping over a beat made with samples...and then asked to mix it in 15 minutes...and then these guys wonder why it sounds like shit when they put it on myspace.
the hip-hop cats out there that are doing it right, 1) have been doing it for a while, 2)take the time to CREATE something from scratch, 3)if they use samples, it's done tastefully, and with the correct licenses and rights to do so.
Let the remarks begin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

now as far as sampling goes, its not a matter of being lazy, its putting sounds together that sound good that the normal joe does not have access to, such as, i don't know, a full orchestra!!!!! you're still creating music with sampled beats. listen to some DJ shadow or RJD2 and tell me that they are just lazy.
