I'm kidding. fuck all of you. I'm kidding again.), but I'll give feedback as if you did your best because that's the only useful way ik for givin feedback. I hope you find it useful.
I voted for
@Iron Keys cause holy shit, that fiddled with my camel's labia in all the right ways. jesus christ, why doesn't this mf always produce like this. FUCK! drums, vibe, mix, space dynamics, everything. chef's ass.
@RizzakBeats lol ts sounds so rizzakbeats. esp the bass. I can almost hear richi blau on it automatically

. so quirkily eerily melancholic too, esp near the end. it reminds me of neptune's beat for allure. thanks for joining tho, generational friend and producer
@Memento Beats this is so european yeezus lmao. esp the outro. it sounds too... "nice" to be my kind of hip hop (and wayyy too many brass sounds. and everything's too clean imo) but high quality shit nevertheless. but yee thanks for takin the time to enter, all the love man.
@thekoolkrush classic shi. mix on point, everythin solid. lil synth thing chordsing was my favorite detail, idk if it was added or sampled.
@Primz this is so old-school and new at the same time. I can legit a shitload of rappers from 2026 writing a banger on this. rick ross, cole, eazy, whoever. thanks for taking the time to join, ppreciate u.
@guitardep love how new this is. it sounds like the most up-to-date submission. the texture & mix could definitely use some work. I'd use a different 808 for instance. but the drive is there. W.
@DJ Excellence whatever. lesbian.
@allagory finish your beats. this is a 4 bar loop without any context, production or mix. I appreciate that you're learning to make cool 808's but they're not gonna save ur beats alone.
@Bangaz By Boon that shi sounds cool but it kinda doesn't sound very hip hop unless ur like... idk synthwave aesop rock or something? also I'm not a great mix engineer but personally, I'm not feeling ur low end at all. I like that the mix has life and it's dirty and not just "loud", but I do feel like it could still use some more mixing. also the beat has life. I fw that.
@BEATBRAWLER why tf u so mad lmao
@Da Archangels you always drop hq shit. you should be winning more stuff. ig it's not strictly "hip hop" but like, I can hear the game ripping this beat apart (especially if it sounded a little less crowded). actually market your style to kpop or something. imagine Lisa on this shit. could be making billions. great work imo.
@Delta Skeltah ur master sounds a bit hollow to me fsr. this should be marketed to like sync licensing, it has a cinema feel to it. I wish it wasn't sampled.
@Earsblower I can't believe I'm noticing this but I wish ur cymbals were more "inside" the beat. it's all kinda vibey and melodic so the more everything fits together and nothing's "out there" the more everything will work in eachother's favor yk. like the drive. this could be hq shi with some edits imo.
@Ian Hint Fuck ice spice and her stupid hair. cunt. whatever u had going on after 0:25 was fye tho. little less clipping, better mixing & mastering (808 too loud for anything else to be pushed to the limit) and this is marketable to a hell lotta rappers.
@iDeaLoGiK You can Suck my donaldtrump. appreciate the camel sound tho lmao. love
@Leopard Cohen that sounds like 3 different songs playing at the same time. I get the vibe but like, wtf dawg.
@Matincharge you have like 6 more months until your first banger. keep going. good luck g.
@P.A.T. the strings sound a little slimshady lol. it sounds aight but my issue is what's the use of this? it's wayyyyyyy too much for anything to be rapped on it. and it sounds like... solid, but no feelings or anything. it doesn't move me. it's just aight. maybe it can be used as a beat they use on a commercial or something? idk.
@Pcs shorty I FUCKING HATE THESE BEATS. you're not a director. you're a producer. this is an okay beat that I can't hear under 50 million diff dialogues. wtf does that even mean. it sounds like u pitched down the close grand or stage grand from fl studio which is a nice sound, it's shook onesy. drums are cool too. but yeah it pisses me tf off lmfao.
@prodCardellino solid shit. I fw this. good vibe. I Love how when the beat goes out and then it comes back with the 808 it BANGS in. like if u mixed this properly it'd be such a banger. I might listen to some shit like that in my free time. recreationally.
@V.J. Retro this is giving me a headache. everything's so "apart". weird me the fuck out. and your snare is too dry lmfao. I like that it sounds sick. you're a weirdo. wtf is this.
ppreciate y'all again. especially Fade. turnin 22 this week, my 8th year here. hopefully I'll die at 92 and this place will still be running and some dumb teenage mf will count our battle points then and try his best to catch up lmao. cheers
