I don’t get why more people aren't reaching out to that dude for beats.
Quoting again for a legit answer, or at least a guess.

I've noticed that a lot of the "sample flip" producers where they truly do crazy shyt with a sample and do more intricate stuff seem like they're getting less placements than some of the sample based producers that mostly are finding loops or doing more subtle chops, and leaving a lot of room for the rappers. It seems to me like some of the trend with sample based producers that are doing a lot of projects with rappers (as opposed to just beat tapes) are leaving lots of space in their instrumentals. A lot of them are less focused on making a crazy beat and more focused on creating an aesthetic or an atmosphere.

It's made me kind of sad the past couple of years, but I've definitely noticed that the type of beats that really sound like someone is really flipping a fukking sample are getting rarer and rarer outside of beat tapes and instrumentals.
