I listened to all the submissions...congratulations to the winner of this round, although the beat wasn't my steez. I liked Why ME the most because of the overall mix of the beat: dope samples and bangin' drums, which is what I like to hear when I listen to beats.

When I say bangin' to describe drums, I'm referring to the punch factor that the kick and the snare have in conjunction with the samples used. Nothing irks me more than a dope sample flip with compressed and/or weak sounding drums period.
