[@slickymgill9062]

Facts

[@MrYoungangel22]

I feel like when he says granny crib was made in 6 min is cause while the beat has to slap, a lot of todays rappers are so experimental with autotune and melody in their voice that the beats can be pretty skeletal. not to say that the bass, snares, drums dont have to be on point and well places, but they are rhetorical and the attitude of the song is largely placed on the vocal artist

[@maxreaper25]

In part, in some cases, sure!

[@Trontaneous]

This kid is phenomenal and organic af!! #atljacob #atljacob

[@michaelbyrne6166]

[@TheNattyking]

You can’t think to hard about making beats shit easy

[@bignutbussa3917]

This is the reason most producers don’t make it, OVER THINKING..... Bein a Artist is 5x harder, I think Artist turned Producers usually make it because they know how a good beat should sound

[@JavTheRipper]

Stop playing!! I need that Drumma Boy interview!

[@f67739]

his tag is annoying but the beats are fine

[@Trontaneous]

[@slickymgill9062]

Dude next to Jacob is a lil off I don’t fw his energy. Glad I don’t see him on episodes now

[@fts1981]

He is of reasonable intelligence and he was having a hard time talking to Jacob cause that nigga sounded slow. That's why they had to switch interviewers, they're interviewing mostly trap producers and they needed people that speak that language
