This was a tough one for me, well, many of the Battles are gonna be tought,,,but I had to go with Class on this one. I liked both tracks alot, but Class stood out to me. Tha1AndOnlyDJT was one of my votes for the last Beat This so I had a rough decision! Yall did what I expected and more, nice!

 

[VAKSEEN]

tight track class. def has a lot going on sound wise. i wouldve like to hear a lil more layering on the horns and guitar (to be more realistic) but it was still def tight.

funky guitar samp Tha1AndOnlyDJT. i dont know if its cause of the 64kbps quality but i could barely hear the bassline u got going. cool track tho.

overall i think classic's joint stands out more.

i liked both track here actually, DJT your track is a good beat but theres not much thats gonna stand up to class effort here its a beast imo so its gotta go to class ! but good work by both guys !

Reviews

Classic
Nice intro. Good use of that guitar, really nice low-end, nice changeups. No complaints.

Tha1AndOnlyDJT
Good laid back track, nice use of the guitar. My only complaint is that to me it seems like a loop, instead of being fluid throughout. Maybe the reverse cymbal made it sound like a 4 bar loop? But very nice track though.

DJT-
- You had a nice beat. I love that. But you just got put up against the wrong person.

Class-
Rawest shit i heard from you so far. Dope track, i expected you to come through and you did.


Class gets my vote.

 

[tricky spinz]

well class, you been talkin it up for a long time now. and i gotta say, you came prepared. this is slick. only thing i don't like is the tom fill but yknow, everything else about this track is just so slick, i can't complain.

well djt, i like this beat. the only problem with your beat, is that it got matched against classic. lol. it's a good beat, but class just came a little harder.

 

[Tha1AndOnlyDJT]

I have always been a fan of Classic's work. im more a sample type guy. hes not. if i could pick it would be classic. but our styles are so different. only if you guys could hear the last two beats i had loaded up for the battle.

I hear what you're saying, but I don't vote based on the 64kbps issue. If it's dope, it's dope!

True. i took that link out cause its not fair. i want to play fair.

 

[chewbux]

both good solid beats on this one, i have to go with class tho, that beat is just more style gets me hyped up

Classic: Pros: Nice constructed track with variations, toms fill and such. We can see the work on the sequencing part.

Cons: The master is overload, so the beat clip digitally, losin points here.

DJ : Pros: Great overall loop, sounds clean and punchy.

Cons : Almost only one loop, that is...


Verdict: If DJ would have made more sequencing, sounding more professionnal and detailed, that would be my choice even if i prefer constructed songs than sampled.

Classic always do nice tracks, my point goes for him on that round altough the fact the track is clipping.

For this round, I chose - CLASSIC - ...

Class, real tight beat which changed beautifully man, great work, liked it a lot. Nice drums as well. Ended really well too!

Dj T, this was also heavy, good work man!

Going with Class on this one!

Good Luck Guys!

Peace

ummm damn these are both dope to me... ironically both went with the rock vibe... djt, respect. this is a tough one.

i have to say.... class showed, overall, more versatility... there were progressions instead of loops... but better? damn. DJT gets my vote on this..... i just like it better, but class showed more, uh, "skills" i guess you would say, but overall i dig this the DJT beat more.

 

[Producer_GyaL]

class!!! love that track.

Tha1AndOnlyDJT!!! i love your track because anyone can seduce me with the sound of the guitar... but to me, is too much a looping... even if its good, i think im with class on this one....

 

[Shonsteez]

Dam. this ones tough too...........Class, i really think u came out big on this one.....But DJT was bangin too!......That guitar riff was nutts man.....I think class jus was a little more Diverse.


STEEZ

 

[Tha1AndOnlyDJT]

Thanks For the comments guys. Congrats Classic, Good luck. We need to colab so i can get some of those keys on my samples.

Class' ; Composition is quite hectic, more subtly would do good. Try blending the instruments a bit so they don't sound too "preset" like, it gives a corny touch like that.

Tha1&OnlyDJT ; Too repetitive, the guitar becomes annoying.
