Rhythm Roulette: Erick Sermon

On this episode of Rhythm Roulette Mass Appeal presents the one and only legendary Erick Sermon - 1/2 EPMD and 1/4 of Def Squad.

--------------Mass Appeal--------------

What started as a humble graffiti ‘zine in 1996 would soon grow to be one of the most trusted outlets for youth-spawned urban culture. Today, Mass Appeal is a media collective led by authentic voices and inspired minds. We are a platform for radical creatives who are transforming culture.

The fact he somehow found a Sheena E. Sample saying “E” and sprinkled it in there as a light stab was dope af.

[OSTeez]

You can see in his eyes how focused he is, it's so intriguing ...
He delivered one the sickest beat of Rhythm Roulette in my opinion !

[TasherreRisayMusic]

Erick Sermon is one of the best to ever do it, but for some reason he never shows up on any "Greatest Producers" lists. Shout out to Mass Appeal for making this happen.

Eric Sermon is no rookie. Look at how fast he listens to the albums & captures the sound. He's a master craftsman.

[TonyMahoneybeats]

eric sermon always had the dopest basslines

[zshakur]

3:35 that "oh word..?" face. The golden moment your hear what you've been listening for. Every beat maker makes that face at that moment.

[FinessedAnalyzer]

I've always been a fan of Erick Sermon's production. He's definitely one of the all-time great hip-hop producers.

Finally a Show For Real Music Producers.... Word Is Bond Son....

[The_Word_Is_The_Way]

He could probably go through those same 3 records again and come up with at least 6 more beats and each one be OFFICIAL!!!

[SleepyEyezCarter]

What makes this so dope is he was willing to say I got to do it over. That refusal to be defeated. Loved this episode.
Crockpots and Cook Books.

[FeastTheStoic]

They should put out an mixtape with all the beats from this serious.... that would be dope!

[ArapBayraminOglu]

This is one of the realest RR episodes.

He didn't have those easy records most others somehow seem to find blindfolded;)

Still managed to knock out a distinct and dope Erick Sermon beat.

[Samuraiwavy]

By no means do I know how to make a beat but. But watching these dudes make something hot out of nothing is pure amazing

[IkePhillipRuffin]

This dude produced the classic Dave Hollister album Ghetto Hymns. One of the most slept on producers out there.

[LEGIN]

Erick has a youthful spirit.... A legend and originator in HIP-HOP 30yrs plus and just look at bruh in this video handling these albums to sample, "E" looks like a kid in a candy store. GOD BLESS ERICK

[NathanSander]

Once he loaded the samples & started playing himself, his eyes lit up like a kid at a candy store. He’s very creative! This was great to watch. Brilliant dude!

[josh_rdgrs]

I love it when they actually pick randomly, the beats come out much more creative like this one. It seems like sometimes the producers go to their favorite section and choose what they’re comfortable with.

[MCMozartMikeDavisBeats]

This man is literally a living legend!

[conformconsumeobey]

Honestly the best beat I heard on all of Rhythm Roulette. Actually a fire ass beat.

[GospelMusicians]

The only one I ever seen who knows the Motif like this.
