I was listening to this the other day and it seems like there are two different takes panned to the left and right vocal channel.

op just discovered 90s-00s rap

Perhaps the vocals were layered and they did a hard pan on both vocals like they used to do with The Beatles music.

op just discovered the stereo field

Yall some funny lil niggas, but its cool ill let it ride for the humour of the thread

LMAO

Real ass thread op I fw it

But yeah the vocals are panned. Rap in the 90s had some interesting vocal layering work going on and a lot of cool panning techniques

This is common in music bro. But yes for Big Pimpin you are correct

Its crazy because i guess ive never listened to the chorus like that before.

I am 90's rap c'mon son...

You produce on an asr?

😭😭😭😭😭

Soooo... Is it two different takes or 1 take filtered differently on each channel?

You said that like it’s some crazy anomaly

Said what?

yeah it sounds terrible when rappers do this and i can't believe some artists still do doubled over verses to this day

2pac did this a lot

Didn’t TI do this a lot when he would layer a yelling take over his regular take? Or am I misunderstanding?

I remember my first time going to a studio the engineer recorded me like that

I was like ? that’s not how Youngboy does it 🤨but said f*** it and kept going

Apparently it sounds bad when you duplicate a take and layer it over the initial one, for the layering trick to work u have to actually record a whole other completely unique take

It’s not that it sounds bad it just cancels it out and makes it all sound like one louder take

Not necessarily to both of your posts, if you were to filter each of them differently you can achieve something that doesnt sound bad

And if there both panned hard to a different ear you wont get those harsh effects

Ah yea
