Who do you get the best feedback from...

[DJ Xsinna]

I'm with you there Producer_Gyal!!

I don't really share my stuff with too many people ether. Everybody's taste is different and not everyone can get inside your head to see where you are coming from when putting a track together. Why you used the drums you used and what samples (if any) you used. My wife is my best critic! She knows my heart and what direction I'm trying to go with my stuff and if it moves her, then I know I'm on something. I have one other homie who has an sick ear for music. He knows what hot and whats flop. He can spot a hit. So I really value opinions from those two sources. This is really my first time posting my junk. I wanted to see what others thought.

My thing on this whole subject is this: Too much positive feedback can hurt you, too much negative can kill you. So it's up to us as artists and producers to have a balance of both and try not to take it all too seriously.

I will say this for what I've heard from you. Your stuff is sick and very well put together. The track that caused you to win the Beat this contest was absolutly BANGIN'. Rich with ethnicity and creativity. Keep bangin Gyal!!

Question, are you into gospel hip-hop? From what I read, You talk about God a lot. Much props to you!

Holla Back!

All I'm trying to say is that if you trying to bump a RZA beat to a strange who is new to Hip-Hop...then there is a GREAT chance that he/she will not like it. Then how do guys like Rza and Primer go around judging their beats then?? You don't see no 17 year old White girls bumping "Come Clean" in their stereos.

I agree. When its about Art and creativity, it can be hard to receive bad feed back sometime. Even people who's already in the industry could care less about your track if they got hotness in their office. If we are confortable with the people that we look up for to seek feed back, its a blessing.

Thanks DJ x-sinna... i really appreciate your comment. Ill keep banging as far as possible...
I looove gospel hiphop. Their lyrics helps me to feel great. I make beats but the people who rap over it are christians. They dont rap about God, but they have positive message in their lyrics. It happens that my winning track was for God, due to some personnal matters. Pm me if you want.

I agree with Cold Truth about getting feedback from different sources. You never know what kind of bias's people will bring with them or why they have them in the first place. When I give feedback I usually never judge based on sonic quality unless its totally distorted and your monitors or headphones are getting static feedback. First of all I give props just for the effort that peeps put into a beat because I know how hard it is to produce.

Also people who don't produce really don't know the blood, sweat and tears that go into making music. And a beat without lyrics is almost like Kool Aid and no sugar. I disect beats all the time and they are so simple, but the artists lyrics brings it all together. I value the feedback I get from anybody, because I can usually gauge where their coming from with their opinions. Does anyone remember that joke that Method Man pulled on Ludacris? They brought Luda to the studio and gave him this horrible drum beat to rap over. I mean this beat was way off, and Luda still tried to rap over it. Then they let him in on the joke. Point is, even some rappers don't know a hot beat until they let it marinate for a minute.

I think I get the best feedback from my other producers of my peers. There are a couple of cats that produce around my city and we all network. Also from the producer on this site. But most of all my most reliable feedback comes from myself. Holla
