...in the current Hip-Hop songs?

I would like to know so that I can fornicate him with a fencepost. I'm not a massive fan of Hip-Hop, but the line seems to be randomly inserted into every Ciara/Pharrel/new B.I.G song made. Each time it is sucessful in obliterating any hopes of me liking it.

For those who are wondering what I'm talking about, take a constipated sheep, make it bleat out the words "Ladies and Gentlemen", and insert into new hip hop song at an interval of roughly every 30 seconds.

Argh.
 
Oh sort of like in the Jurassic 5 song (Quality Control - Jurassic 5)where it goes:



"ladies and gentlemen.... next we have a very very big group by the name of [vinyl scratch]."



I dunno who it is, more importantly I want to find the voiceover man who does the cheesy 1950s soundbites that are in loads of J5 songs like "from planet to planet, from solarsystem to solarsystem", "phenomenal cosmic powah".

:/

It's hardly immature music!?

Jurassic 5 are awesome, proper hip-hop stuff. Listen to the Chali 2na solo album, or the DJ Format collaboration, it's friggin' amazing.
 
Aye, when I look at the huge amount of albums that I don't listen to anymore its kind of depressing.... But then again some have stayed there for around 10 years, such as Stone Roses.

Would have been difficult seeing as the J5 LP is barely 8 years old [/pedant];)

That first album was lyrically fresh compared to the vast amounts of wanksta rap that was washing about at the time. The vocal rythmns were unlike anything else that broke the mainstream.
imho Quality Control only built on this, even improving on old tracks (Concrete Schoolyard/Concrete and Clay) and Power In Numbers showed how the maturity of their sound had developed.

Can't say I'd ever get tired of listening to any of their records. Fair enough your musical tastes have changed, but it's unreasonable to say that you've outgrown them!

EDIT:
In answer to the OP, you'd probably need to go find yourself a breaks specialist or a breaks site to find that one out. It's such a short sample I wouldn't imagine it ever gets credited.

OP: I have heard the sound you mean now on the radio, more than likely it is just a quick recording from a live session at a hiphop club or somthing similar.
