Yooooo, I give up! Haha, this shit is too hard to judge. I'm out yo! jkjk
Going in reverse order from which I listened. Soooooo, here are my thoughts.
Psych,
Ewwwww, very eery and grimy. I love that type of shit honestly. Cool lil vocal chops that you threw in there sparatically. Dug at the end of each 4 bar phrase you kinda changed it up and threw somethin different in there.
Very sick beat.
Lard,
Man, I tried to stay away from those quick bells but I couldn't resist either. I figured cats would be all over those. lol As well as the birds chirping. Love the whistle, good work on the transitions. Only negative thing I heard is that I felt like the kick was a little rushed at times, making it hard for me to groove with the drums. But, it still worked. Nice beat bruh.
Salt Nuts,
Shit makes me want to ride my bike through Central Park, puffin one, on a cool fall morning. Made me feel very peaceful. Nice transitions and variations of chosen sample. Honestly, I probably would never touch that melody, but the way you flipped it was dope. Good work bud.
Kabull,
Dope drums n strings. Str8 to the point type Hip Hop beat. Really dug the haunting piano in the background. Very ill sound. Dope shit bro.
Dez,
Another ill beat for the books. I could hear ODB (R.I.P.) and RZA killing this one on some deadly medley type shit. Drums were simple but very effective. That crazy orchestra type sound just got to repetitive for me. I would have liked to hear it dropped out for a couple bars at some point in the track. That's the only negative thing I could say. Very strong and riding beat. I'd like to murder it. My e mail izzzzzzzz lol
Strike,
Wow! Dope, mellow track with a killer visual. I would be very proud of this piece of work all together! Def made me want to tell a story on some inspirational type ish. Shit is soundtrack worthy. Great transitions. Lovely work homie!
Whiiiiich brings me to the man I picked for the W. Aaaannnnd his name starts with.....W! Mr. Weapon!
Love the violin in the beginning. Shit makes me wanna sk8 or train for a boxing match. It just has that kinda Rocky vibe. That" ohhhh" high pitched vocal sample never hurts either. Great drums and beat overall.
Thats all I got fellas. See ya ll next round. I am really enjoying being a part of this and I wish I knew about it a long time ago. My beats are already getting better after taking a long break. Much love. Peace, love n Hip Hop- Flowsay
