3 of the worst songs you'll hear in your life.

[We_Love_Lime]

Hey guys. I recently recorded some songs with some rapper that I know and go to school with. I'm not a real...producer. I just make beats on an MPC, so pardon the mix and everything, but I wanted to know what you guys thought about my instrumentals?

I heard mixed things about this one...But I personally thought it was my favourite beat.

and

All of them except the first one are under 2 minutes long. I'd love your feedback. Also what do you think of the lyrics? They seem too political for my liking, but idk...

listened to berlin walls still up
samples are cool, that snare ish sound is awful doesn't really sound right with that beat. something a bit fatter sounding would sound better

rapper sucks

Fair enough.
Unfortunately I got rid of all the samples I had when making the last two, so I can't go back and edit them (which also explains why the songs are 1 minute).

But I hear you on the snare. I just used some stock one I downloaded from the internet, because at the time I honestly didn't care, and was mixing using iPod headphones.

Thanks for your thoughts though. I'm going to try to definitely get more into making sure all the individual instruments SOUND good, instead of just making some samples go together and then nonchalantly applying some drums over it.

The one you heard was Donny Hathaway, the other two are Ahmad Jamal.
