I'd hardly qualify Esham too, He only had like a few rock/rap songs on that album.

 

Crib Death was dope though.

i dont really know what qualifies as rap/rock to you.. i just know the vast majority of both of those albums are heavily laden with rock samples.. im just sayin.. its harder to claim "devil without a cause" as rap/rock then when half that album sounds produced by esham..

lol why would i claim that if they sound nothing alike? and yeah im aware rock's is much more rock oriented and dude eventually got a band.. let me look around..

Limp Bizkit. I dont fucking care how much if a douche fred durst is, you simoly can't fuck with their chocolate starfish album. Linkin Park fucked it up when they did it. And korn's early rap rock shit is fucking certified gold. "Play Me" is probably one of the best examples of rap/rock done right. Just my thoughts, I didn't live through the era but my parents were huge into korn, limp bizkit, linkin park, etc. so I grew up listening to shit like that.

holy fuck this makes me feel old..haha

Definitely Rage did it right.Korn was the first band that got me in to rap/rock or whatever.I was also the Korn Kid in High school.I was all about that shit back in the day.Limp dick and linkin park are embarrassing imo.But I did like 2 dollar or 3 dollar bill album when that came out but I cant stand them anymore .durst voice is like nails on a chalkboard.

Maybe he did bite it idk. They bit metallica for the 'american bad ass' track. But just because they both have a similar porn guitar vibe going on doesnt make it the same. If you listen close you can definitely tell a difference. Like I said though, maybe they changed it up a bit and made it their own.....Which is probably the exact same thing esham did when he made it.

 

There are only so many sounds and riffs you can make, which is why rappers like lil jon(how dare he butcher crazy train)and eminem jack classic tracks and rap over em cuz at this point most of it has been done before

i hate the terms "bite", "jack", & "steal" when it comes to sampling.. This is hip hop..hip hop music was literally created from sampling.. shit just comes across as mad disrespectful to the culture i love.. idk maybe im just a nerd who takes this shit too serious but damn haha.. & personally id say rock was inspired by E not that he bit him.. just like icp, rock did his own thing with e's inspiration imo..

haha wrong thread..im sick as fuck today.

im thinkin that perhaps you being a rapper who never owned any of the beats you rapped on may have something to do with it.  

  

damn your going IN on me today haha.. possibly i guess who knows however ive never had a problem admitting all my beats are jacked/stolen.. except for the few I used with the producers permission or a simple lease..

it aint me, dog, its you.  

  

youre fuckin with me right? or do you not see the clear difference in what i said.. i meant I stole them from producers.. not that the producers instrumentals are made up of "stolen" samples..
