XK west - i dont think the drums fit this at all....that snare sounds like the snare from in living color...lol..the theme song....real early 90's and not really feelin...choppin is good....but i dthink the drums are not goin with this at all...plus that snare sounds like its 45945495 feet in the distance...

passwerd - WAY TO SLOWW....i hope you dont keep the sample liek this..its to slowed down....wow...no...

STOP, STOP, STOP, STOP...

Xkwest - Dope. ye..i might change the beat breaks a bit but other than that i though this was chill for sure. masteful work on the vocal cut.

Passwerd - Not bad. the cut is okay but the problem is that it keeps repeating over and over, which would be tuff to rap over. If u only have the cut at the begining of every 2-4 bars and used other pieces of the track that didn't include vocals to make up an additional melody then this would work. it would also benefit from a harder snare hit.

xkwest... I actually like this... it reminds me of house party part 1 for some reason, its real old schoolish... you flipped the shit outta this sample...great. i dont like that snare however... reminds me tooooo much of the bad-side of the old school...the quality. The filte cut on the break is a nice touch... and the way you got the vocal sample repeating to sound like a instrument. Pretty creative all around... just kill that snare...

passwerd - the sample sounds ugly slowed down, your getting a ripple effect... and the instruments cut in awkward at the begining... ok.... i thought i was waiting for the beat to drop, but this is the beat... lesse... the snare is in desperate need of a switch.... the high hat is good... the drums are in need of work... when you play the remaining part of the sample in that break...its off-key.... next time try cutting your samples into perfect loops... and dont go for the obvious as far as sample selection... thats the only real advice i can lend my friend...
good effort...

I agree, the sample is wayyy to slowed down sounding. It sounds like you pitch shifted it up then time stretched it, which is really unneccesary. You shoulda just left the sample at its original pitch if thats the tempo you wanted. When you let the sample stop looping and you let it play out it goes really offbeat. The snare is kinda weak, and the kick drum sounds like a hiccup. This one needs some work. Good attempt tho, keep elevatin'.


xkwest::

Dope shit as usual. The snare does have a lil too much reverb, but other then that I don't got a problem with it. You flipped the sample nice. The vocals aint out to much to keep someone from rappin' over it. Oooh, it just went in reverse. I'm feelin this. I think this could use some hi-hats tho. Good shit.

XKwest:

for some reason the beggining reminded of biggie lol, i however disagree with everybody, i like the old school drums adds a nice up beat feel to the beat. chopping was nice. The little break down at 57 seconds was nice, liked the way everything flowed together very nice work man.

Passwerd:

didnt like the chopping form intro into main beat, and i agree the vocal cut shouldnt be every bar, as well as makin it hard to rap on it takes away from the melodic potential, nice wok though, i dont like hte kicks, they sound kinda cheap but so does everything in lo-fi, one part i didnt like was after the the main part when the beat goes into that part at 1:29 it sounds kinda off, the drums and the melody don t go at that point

Xk you ill with the drums dog, even tho this sounds a little bobby brownish, it's pretty o k

P-dub-This shit is draggin dawg the sample sounds out of place. The beats sound redundant rather than rhythmic. Like a record is skippin while you on the toilet...and you can't get it so you just let it ride until you can get to it...and it just plays over and over and over and uh oh..is it gonna play through...nope over and over and over..nice attemp tho
