Etcetera's framing of "looking at hip hop differently" is the kind of album concept that tends to come from artists who understand where the genre actually came from, not just where it is now. The production choices on a project with that kind of intention usually lean into original recordings rather than synthetic sounds, which is where the real texture lives. Producers working on that end of hip-hop who want quality source material to work with can find free music samples from original commercial recordings on Tracklib — the catalog covers the full span of soul, funk and jazz that built the genre's foundation, with clearance handled in the platform. Looking forward to hearing the full project.
