Default New Music For Ya Soul "Taking Suggestions" Leave Feedback PLEASE, You know I like it

Let me know what you think.

This track has been finished for a while...Had to wait till copyright stuff came back on this track before I released it. (was advised, due to the HOTNESS of the MUSIC)

Hope this is variated enough for the ones that like variance, and looped enough for the ones that know TRUE HIP HOP MUSIC. (no pun intended)

Was up dancing around while making the track...(similar to Kanye in the studio session video that is on YouTube.

Bass line is ME
Keys (piano) is ME
strings are sampled and chopped (can you tell me where from????)
drums are ME

Do you believe in the HOTNESS!?!?!?!?!?!?

here is the link:

It's DA APEX!!

I know what you mean now about the way hip-hop is looped. Sorry, it didn't click in my mind that real hip-hop is like that. I listen to NWA, Brand Nubian, BWS, Dr. Dre etc. every now and then so I know what you mean, it just took a while for the penny to drop.

I think that this one is your best so far, I really can't reccomend doing anything else, it's perfect IMO, and if you get a decent vocalist that'll totally rock.

Yeah, well glad we are on the same page!!...maybe you should go back and listen to the old tracks with that frame of mind.... may change your mind about which is the best.

Anyway, thanks for the comments. I appreciate it. I think I already know who is gonna be rapping on it. The guy that I wanted to do it...I sent him the file the day I finished it...he swore that he listened to it on repeat from 12:00 a.m. till about 5:00 a.m. maybe he over exaggerated but still....

He was just completely amazed at the sound. And he was just picking the track apart listening to each and every sound that I put in it.

I love it too!!!!

Keep em coming. I'd love to hear what the community has to say.

You just gotta make those drums stand out man, make em' bang. Also try some eq on that bass, I can't single the problem but the bass doesn't really fit in with mix. Otherwise dope track, you keep getting better and better, great job.
