honestly. i love a good drama/sad/emotional/angry track a lot more than some feel good club joint...I enjoy music more when it bring out an emotion, or tells a story or somethin...Nowadays that feel good club shit is just bland to me...I'm bored, I gotta hear somethin new from that

Honestly, the last time some feel good club shit really hit me was probably Hey Ya by Outkast

i dont have any direction in mind when i make a beat, i throw on some records and when i find something that strikes me, i record it, chop it up and get down. So i guess i really dont feel any emotion when i make my beats, i just go with the moment and try to make a hot beat. and the fact that i smoke, i get inspired really easily, haha

i think you should always make the beat that suits the mood your in if your pissed off trying to make a party banger aint gonna work bcoz the track is just a way of capturing your emotions at the time !

yeah just go with the flow, i doubt anyone sits down and sais i am pissed i am gonna make a dark pissed off track or some shit like that. Just make music and it will come naturally, if you try to force youself to make a beat like that, you are gonna wind up with crap, never wanna force music, just go with the flow...............

Yeah big, for me sometimes making music IS like therapy. If I'm stressed or upset It takes my mind off of my problems, keeps me busy and relaxes me. And like others said, my mood often comes through in the track. Now if I'm just working on a beat and it's coming out hot I get amped and feel good, but if it's not coming out the way I hear it in my head or it just sounds like shit I might get a little heated, but then a few shots or a bowl usually cheers me right up, LOL. I think you gotta feel your music and put some emotion into it or it's gonna sound dull and lifeless.

Yeah your mood should reflect the trak the trick is to actually convey the emotion to your listeners so they are in the same moment as you were then..

not to show case or some shit like that
but it does convey imperfections and all the feeling.
Beats ARE therepy for most of us.
Listen to a guy named M&M.
I need to make this myself, love or hate it.

Lately I've been making errie, sad kind of tracks so I tend to chop, pitch, and effect to reflect this mood. I also like the laid back chill kind of mood and I'll do accordingly. Sometimes I'll also leave the orginal mood of the sample intact. Lots you can do man.

Making beats is most definitely therapy. anytime anything is stressing me or whatever in life is gettin at me music takes my mind off it completely. I honestly contribute music as the reason why i am STILL in the relationship i'm in right now lol... Music just eases my mind. The beat never talks back or disagrees or anything so thats a plus.

emotion is the best fuel for creativity.


I've always thought that too. I commend all the peeps that write good music/lyrics cuz they're tappin into some juices that comes out sick through music. I wrote one song in my life because I was going through some bullshit with a girl I was feelin. I sat down and just let the words flow. It came out real good. I even sang the song for that chick to no avail. But if I didn't go through it I couldn't have written it. Not to say that some don't play off others feeling about something. Those cats are even more sick with it b/c they can identif y and convey others thoughs.

All in all, my beats are a mixture of anger, sadness, loneliness, somberness, hatred, the desire to be innovative, and cinematic with a funky ass potent groovin baseline over a hype ass kickin drum cymbals tickin beat.

Nope, can't say its like that for me. If i wanna make a westcoast track. i know how one needs to sound so i make it. Need to make Rnb i know what sounds to use what vibe to go for....

Yea, music can be great therapy notice mediation music is huge.

Describes me perfectly....my beats are like that

Except I'm not hurt though...I have no intention of making party tracks...I just want people to feel and to see something bigger when they listen to my beats.

Most of the time i dont set out to create a certain type of track unless its a specific project, I mainly play with the keys or sample for awhile and see where it takes me from there.

My music is very emotional. I have a lot going on within my head and heart and it all comes out in my music. I have some tracks that are so dark that only I can spit on 'em because of some junk I've experience and no other MC could do it justice. Those are the joints that really express who I am, where I've come from and where I'm trying to go. It's going to be interesting what I come up with now...I haven't really made any beats since Christmas 05 and been going through some stuff.
