I forget the name, maybe it's the Volca, but @thedreampolice didn't you get something like that recently? There's also the discontinued Akai Rhythm Wolf, maybe that?
He's talking about analog gear drum machines, very different than an MPC.
That Supernatural vs Juice battle is EPIC.
I agree with @Tarboosh Record said about Eminem making Pop. This is why it's good to specify what "GOAT" means. Genre? Style? Flow? Era?
It's like basketball - I say Jordan is the best of all time, but that's also because so many things he brought to...
@thedreampolice Rap God is really good, I agree, but that beat sucks. I'd love to hear that vocal track on something so much better.
I've listened to Dropout but I've just never been a fan of Kanye, I hate his voice and flow. Something about it. The only thing that I like about Kanye is his...
I think there were some good tries and I can hear the influence of different styles, but it's not just the theme itself but some beats just didn't place.
Doing themes is great but I think sticking to something like just an instrument is best because if it's "boom bap" or "orchestral" for...
I'd have to go through them again but the top 5 is good. There's a few others that had the theme but just didn't place. I just don't think most people took the theme seriously, just like the previous Trap one. Maybe everyone is going through a midlife crisis right now?
Just to clarify @Bangerz8888 your beat was really good, I just don't consider it Boom Bap.
But still, I don't want us to take anything away from @Face Valid and his victory. Well deserved.
I just still don't understand some of the votes on here. It's either Boom Bap or not, it's not about a certain style of swing or whether the beat sounds like something you'd listen to while shopping at the dollar store in a seedy part of town. Boom Bap or bust. If no one can tell what's Boom Bap...
Yeah but I feel like some votes are not even voting based on the theme. I listened to the entries a few more times, most are not even close to Boom Bap.
I have no idea why everyone rides Eminem's dick. Same with Kanye with his production (which sucks balls).
Sure, lots of rappers double vocals, it doesn't mean it makes them better. Eminem took it to a whole new level. I just wish everyone would stop making excuses and just enjoy an MC for being...
Very surprised there weren't more actual Boom Bap beats in this one. Some nice tries but I find most had more of a mashup of a new vibe, which is okay but just didn't seem right.
Congrats to @Face Valid !
