This track is definitely hot... Drum programming is nice with the little shaker pattern and sh*t... Mixing could've been better, but still pretty nice... You should chop that sample up a little bit and see if you could flip it another way... I think it would sound awesome if you could... Keep it up Andreas

I wish this joint was on the Radio, OMFG this joint is right up my alley!!

Andreas, you got a Fan in me bro, yo, with all these remixes you ought to make a remix mixtape with all these released acapellas and shop it to the Underground spots and stores and shit. Just boom it in the park and I bet mad cats will come up and buy that shit. Send one to Stones throw!!

A great way to showcase your beats!!!

What acapella is this? Somehow the beat really matches their rhyme style and brings out a really good mesh.

The mixing isn't bad at all, just get them drums popping a little more with come compression action and you'll be tight.

thats the g unit " stunt 101 " horrible song

Eh, man that joint is on deck for real I'm feeling your skills on the MPC.Your DJ skills shine through big time on the intro where you scratch in the vocals.Producing bangers and stuff is sooooo much easier when you come from turntables.I got some cats pissed off at me for how quick I picked up beat making/sampling and stuff when I got started...Keep up the good work man...also I'm getting ready to make the move out to Los Angeles in about 4-5 months so maybe we can hook up...

Nice beat, though I feel you should have been more liberal with the hihats/shakers. The track seemed a bit sparse because you cut them out prematurely.

Also, you brought the acapella in too late (you brought it in at like the second bar of the 4 bar sequence) and it completely threw off the remix.

But all in all nice work.

If you were to hear a professional remix done like that would you say that it was interesting? I highly doubt it. Don't let your admiration for Andreas' work preclude your better judgment.

I like Andreas' work as well but it doesn't mean that he is perfect and should be free from rational critique.

He may be "closet hatin" as you say... But I agree... A lot of these sites like Futureproducers.com and UGHH.com have favoritism... I'm not sayin that this is the case necessarily (although I agree that the vocals came in at an odd point and sorta threw the thing off. And I still say 50 doesn't fit your style Andreas)... But I mean I seen dudes that were horrible but just because they have friends on the site they praise their "skills"... Andreas I like a lot of your sh*t, but I do agree wit Bassline in sayin that the Vocals were a little off on this one... Which is a shame cause I think this is one of your best beats to date that I've heard...

i think he knews when he brought the vocals in and that is how HE wanted it

there is no set formula that says " when remixing, you must bring the vocals in at the start of the loop instead of 2 bars into the loop"

every one can have an opinion without it being called hatin

That what I'm sayin... I don't think it's hatin... It's just an opinion...
