#RIPBIG 

The best way I can illustrate Big’s impact on the game to you is with his own words…

…spoken by the “next big thing”…

Putting this out there for y’all that don’t remember it. It showed up on mixed tapes and was really “provocative…gets the people going!” It’s a buncha examples of Jay ‘quoting’ Biggie lyrics with Biggie’s originals immediately afterwards…for SIX MINUTES.

The innanetz hadn’t gone as crazy as they are now yet when this first hit the streets. I don’t even remember who put it together. it caused some controversy back in the day. Now, of course, biting is the thing to do and no one thinks twice about it, but there was a time where if you said a rhyme that someone else said, you looked like an asshole…and if you KEPT doing it, you looked like a thief. 

Question; if Jay was “bigging up his brother” by chewing up his lines one by one, did he give Big or Big’s family songwriting credit/publishing/royalties behind ANY of the examples you will hear here? I really have no idea, but I would think THAT would be a fitting tribute. That’s just me tho..

Don’t get me wrong; Jay is one of the greats and honestly, I never felt like he blatantly plagiarized Biggie…but there are some times when I did feel like this..”Bruh, please stop with the Biggie lines.”

#RIPBIG tho. Consider this more of a history lesson than a scolding of Jay on the anniversary of Big’s death. That ain’t what this post is about. This is about Big’s true impact on the game, as heard through the voice of a dude who’s been on top of it damn near since Big left this mortal coil. 

I’m bigging up my brother.

Oh. Hi. 
‘EP’ equals ‘Evolving Project’. Continue reading, please…
Here’s an ever growing and expanding project that I think is gonna be a lotta fun;remixes of ‘Speak Monster Speak’ from ‘The Tinkerer’ and tools for my minions to use to craft their own.  
Click the pic and you’ll be able to download the first four tracks; a remix of ‘Speak
As I receive more remixes of ‘Speak Monster Speak’, I will add them to this album/project. This is a continuing study of evolution AND creation. 
I have placed the ‘Speak Monster Speak’ acapella on this album with the hopes that producers, remixers, DJ’s, and fellow Tinkerers download it and do whatever it is they see fit to make it their own. The first one from the mighty @Defame1982 is included and it is indeed, a monster. Please add on. 
I’m very interested in hearing what people create along with me. If you feel like you have made something you’d like me to hear, my Twitter is @RustyMK2. Talk to me, if we aren’t talking already. 
‘The Tinkerer’ is available on iTunes  
…and here’s a link to go to the Daddy Real website to order the CD 
The crew is #ATFU and so is the plan. 
Follow @ATFU_ on Twitter. We add on and build every day, all day. 
Thanks, have fun with this and holler back.

#AddOnRemix #TheTinkerer #ATFU

This is a remix from a project that I plan to release at some point. 

Here’s the original version for your own comparison and contrast. 

Rusty Redenbacher (#ATFU) - ‘Add On, Part 2’ (Youtube)

I was thinking I would do a remix project of some tunes from ‘The Tinkerer’. I’ve remixes of ‘Speak Monster Speak’ and ‘Add On’ done for a while. I started on one for ‘The Funk’ which eventually became a new song and led to me crafting about 17 more. 

As it stands right now, I have about 20 tracks that could be considered for a follow-up to ‘The Tinkerer’. Once I realized I was in a zone again in terms of creativity, I just kept going. The working title for this album is ‘Lower’, inspired by my favorite David Bowie album, ‘Low’.

I plan on forging ahead with more new music and still may include these remixes on ‘Lower’. I wanted to share this with you to let you know that the work never stops for me, it’s feeling pretty good and I appreciate your interest. If you dig it you can download it. 

The original versions of ‘Add On’ (Parts 1,2, and 3) appear on ‘The Tinkerer’, which is available on iTunes, wherever you buy digital music and in your favorite independent #Naptown record-stores. You can order the CD at DADDYREAL.COM

Thanks again.
