    That bass line in nasty... love it! The only thing I'd suggest working on is getting a dirtier piano. To me... if the piano was less bright and had some dirt on there, it would be perfect. (for the record... objectively, I love a good, bright, clean piano). Here's a joint off of a beat tape...

    This is so close to being outta this world funky. The drums could use a switch. I like them... they're good... but If you made 'em super weird with that boom bap pattern, this shit would be seriously hot. Makes me think of Madlib. Check out this link and listen to the first drum loop.... titled...

    I'm going to go off of memory here because I can't listen to the old mix... but it sounds much better... at least that's how I feel. Spice up the snare a bit and I think it'll be a perfect. Something that just goes thwap... not crazy knock... but definitely something. A good, thick hand clap...

    This is dope... I really like it. I feel like it's harder to slow the sample down than it is to speed it up. You definitely got it right. That being said, if you work on the mix, it will be even better. The drums are a bit dominant. Eq the sample a bit and widen it a little bit... that's where...

    Yo.... this is nasty... I'm feelin' it. Love the drums... love the texture of the sample. Only thing... I don't like the synth in the hook. Take that with a grain of salt... I think that's more of a matter of preference. Having that synth there would go really nicely beneath some vocals...

    This is really dope.... I like it. Made me think of "The Sun God" By Hi-Tek/Common. The only thing I would suggest would be to smooth it out some. It's a little jerky... but part of that is by virtue of the chops. The kicks swing nice... maybe find a way to get the hi hats to have a little more...

    daaaaaaaaaaamn duude..... daaaaamn.... Those drums knock hard and the bassline is fat as hell. I like how you reverse a few of the chops... it's real subtle... but really helps make the beat more interesting and more dimensional. Nice work, I love it. Here's one I put together last week.

    I like the hi hats on it. Here's one that I made over the weekend.

    I like the sample, the low end, and the drop. I'd work on the snare and the hats. I think that the hats need to shimmer a little more. The snare definitely needs another layer. It doesn't need to smack like crazy, but it needs to be thicker and more dynamic,,, otherwise you're missing out on a...

    This is really good man. Love the sample, love the vibe. The mix is really nice, too. I wish I had more feedback for ya, man. I mean, it's ready to go!

    Actually... I made the sample myself, from scratch. The low end on your beat is dope... snares too. The kicks and bass are all mixed really well. I could take a few pointers. Personally, the low end is tough for me. You really nailed it, much respect.

    Here's one that I've been sitting on for awhile. Could work for an interlude or something. I'm not really sure where it woud fit best.

    WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?!?!? that shit was wild... I hear Ras Kass on it. Drums bang. Only thing is that it's hella repetitive. Find a way to break it up and you've go something. Here's something that I finished up today.

    Has a nice low end to it. Here's a little clip of something that I've been working on. Trying to finish the whole beat up, today. <blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-version="7" style=" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0...
