peepin mavs...sample is cool, eit dropped..hmm, this is aiite, drums are ok, not a big fan of vocal sampled beats but this is cool, nice chops but that kick drum is really puttin me off the beat..ok beat

kos...nice melody, likin the atmosphere...kick drum is wack, is it the encoding of the files...peeped 6 battles and i dislike all the drums...bassline is hot, i kinda like this, its growin on me, lovin the vibe given off..nice beat

nice battle

vote-ko

Maverick - Beat seems like its too empty. Needs something more too it.

K.O. - I got the same feeling from this track... Its needs something more to it. Maybe with some vocals it would sound ok, that happens sometimes.....

Cleverwon ProdukshunZ vote - undecided...

bro, what are you talkin' about!?

at least in Mavs case... that track is a hummer... he's definatley on some Kayne West jazz... keep it up Mav, you got some comp coming from StraDiva's in the next round...

KO, sounds like youre just starting... find your rythme and keep it up... bold move to enter a contest but just that is enough to get my respect!!!

maverick: i can only say 2 words "DAMN GOOD"

ko: your stuff was awesome too. just didn`t grab me long enough

 

[Ash Holmz]

yo i thopght both beats were real nice....

mav - intro was top notch.... great beat overall - needed sum bass i thought.... i liked thi beat.. my only complaint is that ive heard so many beats just like this lately from pros as well as everyone here in the forum that it seems kindof cliche

ko - yo i really liked this beat... you gotta get into kinda...it grew on me.... the choir sounds very cheap ... erything else is nice

vote goes to ko - i dunno i just see myself layin a hot ass ryhme over kos shit... just need to change that choir sound

 

[WingsOfAnAngel]

both beats were very very good.
good luck!

 

[JBE]

definitely feeling both beats. i think both are pretty equal when it comes to the technical stuff, but in the end, i think mavericks sounded more professional, or more "finished."

vote- maverick

Ok... I was undecided all day, but i've made a decision. I'm feelin K.O. a lil more. Mav sounds too much like Kanye. Holla!

Cleverwon ProdukshunZ vote - K.O.

 

[Louie Lou]

mav - had more substance

KO - sounded a little empty

 

[maxveritech]

nice beats by both producers, im just feeling maverick's a little more - the vocal sample is well nice! good luck to both of you!

 

[K.O.]

I think the reason people say my beat sounded empty is because it wasnt a SONG.....his beat sounds like a song i mean gosh a few vocal snippets here and there ok but damn it sounds like a song.....if yall herd the song to my beat all of you would have a different opinion cause all its missing is vocals.
