(1) The sampling is not bad..

(2) WTF were you trying to achieve with the drums...? Why didn't you just use a nice breakbeat to complement the piano loop...?

(3) Most rappers wouldn't know how to flow on that beat, and as an instrumental, it doesn't work because the drums are all over the place...It is hard to listen and just zone to that beat...

(4) Keep working on it...

1) There are no samples.
2) IDK, IDK
3) Who said anything about anyone rapping over this? My music is a creative expression, nothing more. Don't judge it by music industry standards, view it as art.
4) OK

(1) The keys are dope...I thought it was a sample...Great job...
(2) I have listened to your other tracks, and I find your drums rhythmically "weird"...Almost chaotic...
(3) That's my own bias...In order to critique the music as honestly as possible, I have to use a template...If I simply listen to it as "art" then I can't really give you any constructive feedback...

With those drums, it would sound AWFUL...

Hip Hop is best suited for 4/4 time signature...You rhyme on the 2 and 4 when the snares are hitting...I know some people can tolerate weird rhythms and have a preference for it...

But to most of us it sounds "off"...

The keys are nice on that beat...I guess if you rapped according to the keys, you will have a good rhythm, but drums are typically used to accentuate the melodic instruments, in this case, the drums are not helping the melody (in my opinion)...They sound like two conflicting ideas...

I am hearing a boom bap boom bap boom bap boom boom boom-pause-boo boom boom bap :lawd:

Me changed the snares but I'm still using two different ones. I hadn't even noticed the madness until you pointed it out.

I was thinking the beat would be good for a photo portfolio. The beginning could be a series of slides detailing info, then when the beat drops the photo slides until the chorus part where some contact info could be shown and then it can be repeated. Something to that effect. I've seen alot of videos on youtube where no ones talking but there is music and text or photo slides shown. Audio Jungle has a market for that sort of thing to.
