Saw a very eye-opening YouTube video tonight. See it for yourselves.
The video.
While the end product isn't quite what the Usher/Young Jeezy song sounds like, it's still pretty damning. I verified this for myself by going into Garageband on my iBook. Sure enough, the exact same loops that the video creator references are there. Paul Da Don, the beat's creator, straight up stole his synths from Apple Loops, a collection of sounds and loopable clips for Garageband and Apple's Logic (the high end music production software for Mac that PDD was no doubt using).
Does anyone get creative in mainstream music anymore?
I'm cool with this revelation, though, because it brings 2 things to light for me. 1) I shouldn't be ashamed for using Garageband as a music production suite. 2) I hated this song anyway, so now I'm justified.

This is quite interesting and funny at the same time. Way to expose them. Glad you caught that.
I don't have a mac therefore I don't have the luxury of having Garage Band. Though it looks like a fun software.

Kinda makes me wonder about Throw Some D's (which I like quite a bit)
