    for some niggas like Southside it’s like breathing but to make truly great beats it’s tough asf, esp starting out

    that said, if you know what you doing, throwing some trap drums over a splice loop is easy and the beat will be hot but it’s not gonna be a classic or anything

    Real for Southside mention

    When you go to sell your s*** people are gonna go for the more simple ones. Also midi presets from previous beats you made could definitely save you hella time when just trying to lay down a base for your ideas.

    Never be afraid to use midis and presets don’t let these elitists tell you otherwise

    100% agree with you… but if op is that frustrated about that process to come on here and vent, then like i said, he probably isn’t working efficiently

  • What Zit Tooya

    You can't just take different f***ing loops and put them together thinking you're f***ing Pharrel
    I see mfs over there saying that in 2 hours they make a sick beat, no man that s*** is prolly all loops and dirty samples, It takes 2 days for me to make a beat, and not even done, just the idea of it, and if the idea is trash, I have to start over and over again, like f***

    people forget that their favorite artists, producers, hell anything in the world, only got to greatness by being persistent and sucking at it for a long time. I don't think people view it as easy either, they just don't know / appreciate it as a craft.

    Southside been making beats since he was a child though, taught by his Uncle or father IIRC. most of us haven't. people underrate the importance of mentors and knowing people IRL that not only teach you but keep you motivated and on a sort of schedule / track

    how lmao

    multi platinum producers use loops, no artist cares where you got the melody from, only people who will question that is elitist producers who thrive off the fact that they make their own melodies

    that s*** corny to me

    maybe u not a producer so u dont get it?

    but s*** just lame lol. like making ur own s*** will always b cooler. ion hate nobody who use loops i got plenty bros who do that shii. fuk i mean i be selling loops i have nothing against mfs who be looping, but it's lamer than doing it urself

  • Nov 5, 2021

    not what I meant lol. Some producers get a loop, throw some generic trap snares 808s and hats on it and call it a day - it can be a hot beat but that’s it

    that said, stacking loops or actually producing around one and making a classic - definitely possible. Been done a lot. Srry if I wasn’t bein clear

    appreciate the clarification, fasho not wrong
