One of my Favorite Beats!

Tonight I’m going to give you a beat that is one of my all time personal favorites. It is sampled from an album called “Highlights” by the Boone Sisters. It is a gospel album and is absolutely loaded with samples! I’m not kidding when I say that this album has an abundance of material on it. Enjoy this track because I definately enjoyed making it. I remember the first time I ever heard the sample and I just about lost my mind.

Download this one if you want through the link below the video.

Let Go

Ok so… It’s pretty late right now and I have a 3 hour class at 9 in the morning. This post will definately be pretty short. I like this beat and have gotten some good feedback on it in the past. I hope you enjoy it, please comment!

Another Day…Another Beat

Today’s beat is a pretty simple track but I love it. My step bro, who also makes DOPE beats really likes this one too. I made this beat probably about 6 months ago and have been bumping it in my car ever since. There’s a pretty cool sequence that I added in where things get switched up so listen for that. The sample is actually pretty chopped up even though it doesn’t sound like it.

For the next week at least I will be posting old beats because I let my friend borrow my turntables and mixer. He needed them because he is in the process of buying a new set. I’m getting pretty bored in my dorm room and definately craving some vinyl and my MPC!

Enjoy the track and download it if you want. ‘Til Tomorrow…Peace!

First Beat

Today I’m going to give out the first taste of my beats. While I like this track, it isn’t totally the style that I am all about. I think it has a pretty unique sound and the vocal sample blends well. I made this track from a Dionne Warwick record. Usually I try not to use artists as popular as her but this sample just caught my ear for some reason. If you make beats you know how that is.

Anyway, check it out in the video below. I’m posting my beats as videos on YouTube to try to get more visitors to this page to see what I am all about. Peace!

What The Purpose Is Here…

I love hip hop music and making beats is my passion. The process of finding the perfect record to sample, finding the perfect drums, and laying down the track is something that I appreciate. I will be posting music mostly every day to listen to and a link to download each track. If you are a rapper, these are free beats! If you simply like to listen to pure hip hop, then this is also the place for you.

I have made a choice to attempt to make a living doing what I love and making beats. The way that I have chosen to do this is a little unconventional, however. I want to never charge a cent for my music, I believe that it should always be free. The key to me making money at this and gettting paid to do what I am passionate about is YOU, the listener.

I would like to eventually make a living on this blog/website through advertising revenue, thus keeping my music totally free! I believe this is possible and would really appreciate you visiting this blog frequently and supporting real hip hop music. Feel free to start conversations and comment!

Enjoy the music and make sure to subscribe by email or just visit whenever you want to listen. Thanks!
