He was going for that "freeka leak" crunk sound or "my goodies" but he didn't quite get it right. My dog cant take it! haha


Reminds me of the Summer of 88 when PE's "Rebel Without A Pause" was screaming out of Jeeps all over Philly and peircing every eardrum in sight.

I love the song.

that's on my ipod, and that one i don't have to adjust. "black sweat" just has the worst mix ever for a prince song.

it is too loud in the mix....but i guess in his opinion its the only new element that seperates the verse from the chorus...and thus it needed to be a focal point... but it is IMO a little played out in a 1994 dr dre G funk sorta way... confused

Don't get me wrong: I LIKE the track.

But the high synths are bad for my ears. I have to turn down the volume of this track if i hear the whole album!Who mixed and mastered this?

Question: Am i the only one with this problem?



Hell, no! I thought it was just me.

but then wouldn't he need to change the equalizer back so the other 4000 songs on his ipod sound good?

You can equalize one song in iTunes
Select the song, right click it, options and there you can modify the sound level and select one of the many equalizations.
If you select a whole album yo can do it at a time.

Don't forget to actualize your iPod after that.

The good thing is that the file is not modified ( you can undo these operations any time)

i never knew it! thanks! thumbs up!

You want to roll down the windows and pump that thing in your car but you can't cuz it kills your ears!!!

LOL I totally agree. Funny thing is that it sounds great in the venues that i have seen Tamar and Prince at. So DJ Rashida must do something to cool down that high pitch sound.

Yep. Why do you think the old gangsta rap records had that effect in the first place? lol
