    R.I.P. Prodigy of Mobb Deep

    Holy shit! I don't believe it! Mobb Deep was right alongside Wutang as my favorite group growing up. We lost a legend today.

    Showcase - May 1-7, 2017 - Post your beats here!

    2 in the morning and dead tired, so I'll get to everyone else's tracks later this week. Klypse, Nice mellow beat. Didn't think the snare fit the rest of the track. k0d4R, no complaints, everything about this track makes your head nod. Great job. Matt-D I love the sample flip though the whole...

    Gonna review these beats later, just popped in to say what's up, I had a recent promotion at my day job and have been busy getting up to speed, so it's been a crazy last few weeks. Can't wait to see what you guys have been creating!

    Thanks for the feedback on Blocks. It's actually an old beat and I'm trying to think of ideas to spice it up.

    @Marc Duncan good job with the mix and orchestration @Matt-D Love the sample and effects. At first I thought the beat might need hihats in the percussion but then I got into it. Doing D-block this week.

    @NONONSENSEBEATS That's a great smooth club beat that I can see quite a lot of rappers on, I'm thinking a collab with Lil Wayne and someone else. @Marc Duncan Great instrumentation on this. If I had to nitpick there are two hi pitched synth melodies at 0:55 that combined sound a tad loud in the...

    Great competition everyone, I'll finish listening to everyone's beat this evening. Glad I made it to round 4 again, just missed the mark.

    Do you all make other styles of music? Please share if you do!

    I know this is primarily a hiphop site but I was wondering if you guys delved into other types of music? Especially if it influences your hiphop or vice versa? I recently tried my hand at movie/ tv style soundtracks cause I love tracks that sample them, like Raekwon's Knowledge God, Remedy's...

    @S3oulC1ty I need to sit down with you and learn basslines one day. Amazing work with the sample chops as always. @Marc Duncan Great work with this, I can also hear Pusha T on this as well. I'd bring in the low pass filter variation earlier by the 2nd verse. @lloopz NIce chops. Snare seems a tad...

    Marc Duncan, dope beat, good job with all the effects Matt-D; great sampling. Interesting using a dubstep wobble in the transition instead of using a drum fill. --------------------- Different style beats this week.

    Mass Appeal Rhythm Roulette (your favorite producers sample random records)!

    I've been subscribed to this series on youtube and thought I'd share it her. We here at illmuzik have sampling competitions all the time, so it's cool to see the producers we grew up on doing the same thing.

    @Matt-D : great sample work@ Thought the bass volume was a little weak on the first track. @DEEZ BEATZ : Love the sample chops for the 1st beat. I know it's supposed to be experimental, but I think it would those chops would be serve better with a better drum pattern. 2nd beat overall was more...

    What Beat Types Do You Prefer

    Top of my list are: 1) Sampled old school beats: beats from producers like Havoc, Rza, Alchemist, Pete Rock, and Primo. I like similar styled beats from cats like Kanye and Just Blaze, but there's something simple and amazing from those older cats that just make hiphop what it is. Primo chops...

    Production 8 Things You Might Not Know About DJ Premier

    This was a great read. Primo is my favorite producer alongside the Rza in his prime. I didn't even know about his collaboration with Christina Aguliara. His recent work with Joey Badass is amazing. This is what inspires the end game for my production. Anytime you hear a Primo beat with...

    @Beautiful Noise: Nothing to critique, sounds like a track Kool G Rap and Mobb Deep would go on nicely. @Marc Duncan: real creative beat, I love the spacey feel to it. @HouseOfBeets: again, another creative beat. Only thing I can say is that the horn sounds a bit flat, might need to modulate...

    Teejay Sounds: Wow loving the acoustics of that drum loop. Good job with the beat.
