ok is there anybody on this funkin website that isnt trying to produce that crunk bullish like young jeezy, lil wayne, lil bow wow, thrree 6 mafia, lil jon and all that other lil' bullish

what about some real ish like j-dilla, madlib, pete rock, dj premeir, brother ali, abstract rude,ant from atmosphere, apathy, celph titled, MC Esoteric, Canibus,Planet asia, Gang Starr, Eyedea, DJ abilities, Lootpack, Quasimoto and the greatest, Dilated peoples

^ LoL respect err'bodys taste for making music... If you have trouble appreciating crunk listen to pompeys beat in the beatdown... (still think it's the best beat in the whole beatdown)..

I don't have anything against crunk, yet I try to make my beats as good and authentic as possible, as I like that sound better... been sampling a lot more than usual over these last couple of months. I don't think I have ever used a synth. I'm a sucker for that fat vinyl/analog sound too, relaxed vibes and oldschool drums. Striving to be better and make my own sound... pretty much I'm inspired by mostly DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Dilla, Nujabes and Kno - though I am nowhere near a quarter as nice as anyone of them.

Here's some examples:

I feel you man, it's like 99% of the internet's beat makers try to do dirty south, crunk, pop and mainstream beats. Even I do that from time to time, but I like making old school beats, an beats like in the 90s.

Some examples

-=Rate My Beat=- (I think this one is pretty old school-ish)

awwww ish dog i was feelin all those tracks on ur page man     reminds me of some old skool tribe called quest ish         ill no doubt man

those beats.......ishs off the chain dog    props

-=Rate My Beat=- (I think this one is pretty old school-ish)- sickness im really feelin that bass line
-=Rate My Beat=- (This is pretty underground IMO)- this was a heater as well

thanks, I'm glad there are some old school/classic hip-hop heads around here... I'm tired of all these sounding-the-same-synth-beats with no character to them.

trust me, way more people sample than you think. i just find that those into the synthy stuff tend to promote themselves more, whereas those into sampled stuff just know every1 they wanna know, if you follow me.

I know that, and that's what I don't like.

LOL i think i havent heard any crunk beats here on WB.....but you can find every genre/style of beats XD very cr8ive cats round here

Crunk or "commercial" beats are just easier to do...that's a fact.

First of all...not every beat-maker has the skill to flip a sample and make something totally new out of it that actually sounds good.
You see ppl like Lil John adding 808's and a stupid whistle sound to a pattern and danggg...the beat is done. It's obvious why everyone is following that trend...cuz everybody could make such a beat if its a catchy melody.

I don't blame ppl who make "commercial" ish with all the crunk and 808's...i'm cool with other music taste...i would consider most of my stuff "newschool".

But if everyone is following the newschool ish, the real underground hip hop will go down...

And that means ppl like DJ Premier, RZA, Pete Rock and many other cats would go down...or atleast their music. And those legends made the biggest hip hop hits ever...

^ thats not a fact at all.

sure theres lots of simple c major lil jon vocal crunk whistle 808 kickin snare roll having crunk out there
but theres also alot of stuff thats actually composed and mixed nicely
same goes for sampling.

its not about what you do, its about how you do it.

I aint hatin on the beats of that dirty south/ top 40 bullish im just pissed that some wack muthafunker like soulja boy or lil jon gets on the mic to scream YAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYAAA!!!    and YOOUUUULLLLLLL!!!!!!!!! and sells 5 million records        that ish is SO wack              but what pisses me off the most is there tryin to call it hip hop and its not....     its some dumbass yellin into the mic is what it is yo

exactly!
