How is his name insulting to black people? He's actually paying homage to the Egyptian ? Thoth who the greeks call Hermes Trismegistus. Alchemy (Greeks definition) is mixing base metals and trying to turn them into gold. Alchemist the producer uses that as a metaphor of how he mixes records and turn them to gold (banging hip hop tracks).
I think Thoth is not even the right Kemetic name. I think Thoth might be Roman -
It takes an elite producer to use a sample that's already been done to perfection yet remake it and its arguably better
What Alc did on Hold You Down, with the sample used for 'Soon You'll Understand', blew my mind. Id vote 'Hold You Down' as his best beat

It should be Techu. Thoth supposedly brought about the word thought due to what he represented and the spelling of his name in this particular instance. Techu had a myriad of ? represented factors and wisdom happens to be one of them. -

Yes!!!! -
KEEP IT THORO IS HIS BEST BEAT FOLLOWED BY THE REALEST (MOBB DEEP/KOOL G. RAP)

Alchemist is a dope producer but I never liked how he played Ras Kass.
He sold a beat to Ras Kass for "Home Sweet Home" which was recorded and put out on mixtapes. It was to be a single off of Ras Kass' forthcoming album "Van Gough" (hmmm... wonder where Kanye got the Pablo Picasso idea from? but I digress...)
Ras Kass' record label decides to push back his album so, in the meantime, Alchemist sells the same beat to Jadakiss for "We Gon' Make It". That is some ? ? ...
