    1: Curtis Jackson(50 cent). Havok and Prodigy (m-o- double b, i dont know why they wanna trouble me)

    2. Nigels last riding clip in the edit was a hop over duble peg grind down a 8 set to barspin out bitch

    3. According to the alchemist making beats and riding street is simular because in both your taking something that is not intended on a particular use and using it in your thing

    1.50 and Mobb Deep
    2. Over double to bar
    3. When you ride street you see a different perspective on obstacles that aren't meant or designed to be ridden on like Alchemist puts a different perspective from sounds and samples that aren't meant to be hip hop beats but he makes it happen.

    1: Curtis Jackson(50 cent). Havok and Prodigy (m-o- double b, i dont know why they wanna trouble me)



    2: hop over double peg to barspin on a 8set (looks like such a butter spot to ride)



    3: Alchemist compares street shredding to his beats because they both use things that arent supposed to be used for what they love.

    for example nigel shutting down a park bench, or the alchemist sampling a mo-town classic.

    on the real tho my shoes got holes in them and smell like shit throw some 10.5s my way i would be forever gracious.

    nigel rules!!!!!

    1) Curtis Jackson III a.k.a. 50cent and Havoc/Prodigy (a.k.a. Mobb Deep).

    2) Hop over double peg grind to Barspin out down an 8 set

    3) Beats are not intended to be used for what he uses them for, just like rails, ledges, stairsets, etc. are not made for BMX riding, but they are still used by riders

    In the past, the Alchemist has worked with 50 cent and Mob Deep.
    Nigels last trick is a hopover double peg to barspin out. The Alchemist and riding street both use things not meant for making beats or riding street and use them to do just that.

    1. he mentions 50 cent (Curtis Jackson) and Mobb Deep

    2. The last trick is a hop over double peg barspin out on an 8 stair hand rail

    3. Alchemist compares making beats and riding street as a parallel because they both involve everyday objects that are used for one thing and Nigel and the Alchemist both are creative people so they are smart enough to realize that they can use something for more than one purpose and thats why they are recognized as such talented and creative people, whether it be cruisin' the streets of NYC or mixing up sick beats for groups such as Dilated Peoples and they will forever be remembered for their accomplishments.

    a hope over double peg to barspin
    The Alchemist uses beats for things that are not what there meant to be for just like in the sport of bmx where we use handrails, banks etc. for riding which is not there purpose.

    1. 50 cent and mobb deep
    2. over double peg, barspin out
    3. street riding you're riding things that weren't intentially built for that use, and with music, alchemist uses samples that weren't made for what he does.

    Fiddy (50 Cent) and Mobb Deep
    Over double peg on the left side to barspin out, I believe it was an 8 set.
    He said its close to the same because your taking something thats not ment to be anything, and making the best out of it.

    2. He does a double peg to barspin down a handrail.
    3. Like riding street, making beats takes things not intended for a particular use and transforms them into something rad.

    1. 50 cent and Mobb Deep
    2. Bunnyhop to over double peg grind down an 8 set rail to barspin off
    3. It's similar coz when you are riding street, you don't use things as what they were ment to be for, and so you do with making beats. Just making some dope shit!
