Primo is soooo over-rated IMO... almost all of his beats follow the same formula... make a loop, add some boom bap drums and scratches on the hook. I'm not saying that the formula doesn't work, he has made classics, but for me it gets old real quick.
I'd much rather listen to someone like RZA, who even back in the 90's was experimenting and pushing the boundaries. Yeah, sometimes the experimentation goes a little too far, sometimes it doesn't work, sometimes it's whack.
In 2014 I'd much rather listen out for what RZA is doing rather than listen to the same sounding beats that Primo has been making for 20+ years!
That's just my opinion though.
Peace!
