Ok the results are in, check out the battle brackets and also the full archives list.

My FINALS review:

Diamond overall winner @Yrjo Owen - It was a great beat, very smooth. I like what you did with the beat with the synth part in and out. I would have loved to have heard more of the beat.

Platinum winner @1st Official - I was pulling for you all throughout the battle, all your beats were on point. I liked this one a lot but I think the vocal snippet "alright" could have been better. I think it was the sample of that itself was a bit too muffled for my liking. I actually preferred your beat in Round 1 and 3.

Gold winner @huggyHG - You kept the same beat throughout but it was dope enough to hold up against the rest. I think I voted for you on each round, it was a great track. Smooth, clean mix and it sounded professional.

Silver winner @Saadermaster - Very, very smooth. I liked it a lot except towards the end where the strings went higher and that vocal snippet came in. For some reason it just threw me off.

Bronze winner @skinnyknicca646 - Very impressed with all your beats! I liked how each beat progressed in each round. The round 4 beat is really good, you kept it busy but head nodding at the same time.

Other mentions:

@Spuntastic - Round 1 beat was on the country side but you made it work. The round 2 beat was really dope!
@Wazeer Shah - I liked "HEY!", nice build up and you kept it moving along. Very impressed.
@chloetennis2701 - I like how the beat is arranged but I don't think that style is on the Hip Hop tip. Great sounds and arrangement though.
@TCoast - As usual, dope beat. Your beat was super smooth and the piano was dope. I think what was missing was a few changeups just to keep things interesting. I expected this one to be the Bronze.
@Escobar Style - I liked the fact that your beats had the same style, that shows you have your own style. Each beat was really good, well put together. I just think the synths should either sound better or maybe ease off the synths just a bit.
@E_Buddha - That Mobb Deep beat was dope! I was just hoping for a few variations thrown in. I don't know what you're using to program the drums but that's the main thing that needs to be tightened up.
@HardWireBeats - Round 1 beat was of course a great sample you used. Round 2 I liked the fact you used horns but it's hard to pull off a heavily influenced horn beat. I've tried, shit is hard! But I like what you did, you flipped it instead of just looping all the way.
