Dam Clever....

Clever that ish is mad ill!!!!!! I never heard that sampled before!!!! Keep on and good luck to both of yall!!!


Peripheral- Hot man,,,This is a tough one!

 

[Loose Cannon]

Cleverwon, i like how hard your beat was.

Peripheral, i love your strings, but your beat wouldve been better if you would have put your own drums in instead of a drumloop.

Nice beats though.

Peace All,

My vote is for Cleverwon:

Peripheral you gave Cleverwon no competition with that track, c'mon man bring THAT HOT SHIT!!! Much props to both cats, but Cleverwon took this round, in my opinion.

Cleverwon had a hot sample (good diggin), rough and rugged drums (the kind I like), and a good mix, which made him far more superior in this round. Hot shit yo, keep up the good work!

Peripheral had some good quality samples, violin, bass guitar, and drumloop, but your mix was the primary weak spot, which probably caused a lot of people to become disinterested (bored). Mix your instruments up better, your chorus or hook didn't create any excitement either, so my tip for you is work on improving your mixes!

Cleverwon got this on banging hard nice drop playa
Peripheral nice shit hot strings not my type still tho


Stra's vote - Clever1

 

[Louie Lou]

cleverwon - even tho that track sounded like it wuz mixed with a dj mixer (track and diana fade in's) it wuz better than peripheral's.

Peripheral - that violin was kind of nerve racking.. alittle mo change ups need on that track.

 

[peripheral]

Yo, thanks for the feedback...I'm going back to the lab ....watch for the comeback!
Cleverwon: Nice joint...I even found myself humming the hook.
