Do you prefer Dj's or Live Bands? Do you think more rappers should have live!


Question: Do you prefer Dj's or Live Bands!? Do you think more rappers should have live bands or stick with dj's!?
Answers:
It all depends on the chemistry between the emcee and whoever is producing the music (whether it be a DJ or a live band)!.

Guys like Black Thought or Lyrics Born, who normally tour with bands and have thus developed a rapport with the bands members, wouldn't sound quite as good with a DJ!. Additionally, the music of Lyrics Born (for example) is heavily funk-based which just sounds better with live musicians!.

In general, I think I prefer live bands because it's more organic!. And I LOVE when they go in all different directions with covers and jam sessions!. That said, I also really dig when there's a really talented DJ on stage as well, as long as the chemistry between he and the emcee is there!.

(By the way, I'm assuming you meant for live shows!. I have slightly different thoughts about for the studio!.)

EDIT
Sagsoulstar: you're right, of course!. But how does that difference change my overall point!?Www@Enter-QA@Com

I prefer a DJ but a REAL DJ that uses turn tables!. I dont really like "bands" cause im not really into the type of music a band would play!.

LOL @ the thumbs down maybe im not understanding the question correctly!. but i dont like rock music so i dont like bands!. i have been to weddings where the band played marvin gaye and stevie wonder and it was really good but i guess wen i see band i think of rock music sorryWww@Enter-QA@Com

humm depends on who it is!.!.!.!.!. i like to see real djs (with 2 turn tables and 12' viynls) at real hip hop shows ie: KRS, Rakim ect bcuz back in the days the dj was part of the show, the dj had a spot light where showed off their scratchin, and dj skillz, along wit the hype man and the emcee it was worth the money to go to a show!.!.!.!. but certain artists/groups are prob better wit live band ie: the roots, common, talib ect so i guess it depends but overall i enjoy real djs (wit the whole show aspect) more :-)Www@Enter-QA@Com

Depending on the Song!

I would like To here Nas and Jayz Perform Black Republicans with a Live Band!!! My man !?uest love on the drums

But I want to here Nas Is Like With the DJ!.
Rather if it is DJ LES or PREMO himself

Can you dig it!?!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

There is only one ILL live band that's well known!.!.The Roots, so if it's them then yeah!.

EDIT: FOR omagus, Black Thought doesn't TOUR with a live band, he is IN a live band!. There is a difference!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Definitely a live band!. Look at Jay-Z and Kayne, they always flow with live bands!.!.!.!.yes they always have that faithful DJ but the ability to perform with a live band just gives them a musical edge!!!! Heck, look at the Roots!!!Www@Enter-QA@Com

I love the live band, remember when Jay-z performed with the roots on MTV right after he dropped the blueprint!? Even made Diddy sound good when he performed Press Play on 106 & Park!. I prefer the live bad for the soulful feeling!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

i prefer DJ's at parties and live bands at concerts!.

for example snoop with a live band was 4000 times better, than with a dj!. it really flashed me!Www@Enter-QA@Com

Live Bands are much more intimate, it doesnt suit alot of rappers

but the right rapper with a live band is greatWww@Enter-QA@Com

I like Dj's because I think it helps keep the focus more on the rapper,and produces a better sound overallWww@Enter-QA@Com

No preference!. It depends on the what DJ or band you're talking about!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
