Beat This! Competition - January 24-25, 2024

[SwayeeBoogie]

I usually don't comment when people start trying to divide talking about boom bap vs trap cuz it's all pointless. It doesn't matter what style beats you make if it's quality then it will stand out for example there's a trap joint with Benny with the big dog Acapella that I think is extremely dope. There's are plenty of trap producers beat I love. Like juicy j or zaytoveen and alot of them use samples too.What some people fail to realize. Is that hip hop started out as a sample based art form. When they was rapping over just drums breaks and no samples. Everything thing is a sample. If you make a original beat if you aren't playing the instruments or live drums yourself then you are sampling too. If your using drums sounds that you didn't make or play you are sampling. To say something isn't creative because you prefer something else over boom bap is just not accurate. Me personally I make the type of music I grew up on. If you love and prefer trap or something else then thats fine as well why does it have to be an issue? I make originals and chop samples and chopping is def not uncreative unless you just slapping a 8 second loop in like puff did to make hits but anyway that argument is tired. Just make what you love whatever it is.

Also might wanna petition fade to do an all trap beat this or something. I'm sure it's enough guys here who make that style and I would even make a beat for it cuz I do actually have like 5 trap beats but still with a boom bap essence.

But speaking about the actual battle there's some joints I'm really digging. The outsidaz joint is nuts the Benny big dog is hard the busta dangerous is dope.

I have a confession. I was intentionally working the people up Its been too quiet and you guys barely interact anymore.

Primz had to stir the pot for attention lol. Doesn't matter who wins, doesn't matter what style of hip-hop you produce, just DO YOU. I've yet to win and I think my beats are way better than 90% of the producers on this forum. I'm not crying about it.

 

[Iron Keys]

I always know the beats that are made by @2GooD Productions @Iron Keys @Armani.

Basically any time you hear a dope, well produced well mixed beat.

 

[Primz]

Next time , imma do a trap beat and not a boom bap like i did this time.

That's that Grime pattern.

I support this.



I've noticed a distinct lack of chatter. Needs more life back. Maybe people are missing my music and I need to bring back that magic

 

[Primz]

See how easy it was to get blood boiling?

We do need more West Coast producers to bring in that funk. Where the Dr. Dre clones at?

My funk stuff and dre stuff are two completely separate styles.

I don't even make dre stuff anymore

 

[freezee]

This is 1 of the few little I had but my mood was DR DRE when I created it

Nothing here yet.

 

[Iron Keys]

There were 2 solid ones in there. Difficult to choose between.

 

[Delta Skeltah]

Pretty dope.

 

[freezee]

Got my pick but that was tough to choose
