Kendrick and Drake are really over doing these beat switches.

[Pure Water]

Aubrey's Angels are out in full force today.

The production has been pretty bland throughout this whole thing.

Diss tracks just don't really hit the same in the trap era I guess.

Ain’t no way you can say Family matters beats are bland

 

[LOST IN THE SAUCE]

I thought it was okay. Pretty generic sounding for the most part. 2nd beat was good, 1st beat okay, 3rd beat was blah. They all just blended together in the end.
Production wise Meet the Grahams is probably the best one to me, but it's such a boring beat for a diss song. Euphoria probably had the worst beat out of all of them. Kendrick's ear for beats seems pretty shaky nowadays.

Hold up wait a minute,.....Meek Mill did it best

 

[Ze Pequeno]

They're just peicing together multiple songs as a cheatcode now. There's use to be some similarities between the beats like maybe the same samples chopped differently with new drums,but now it's just random songs put together. Drake is the worst ever since sicko mode,he really lost me putting random future songs at the end of his.

Kendrick did the beat switch on DNA which was released 7 years ago and went 3x platinum.

He also did the beat switch on Maad city which was released 12 years ago.

Both of these songs had beat switches that sounded nothing alike.

When was this "use to" period that you are referring to?

even first person shooter had a beat switch. I guess that's kinda thing cuz he been doing it for many years at this point.

fukk are you talking about? Drake been doing the beat switch way before sicko mode

 

[MoveForward]

Drake made it corny when a beat switch was always one of the hardest things in rap.

I'm no music nerd, but I KNEW when Drake was doing that shyt I thought...

"Aren't these different songs?"

I agree, the beats should be a remix of each other, similar or something...2 or 3 different songs n one is Lame...

 

[boogers]

if a beat switch or two makes yall that upset, stay away from progressive rock music. that shyt is all over the place

personally i love beat switches when they're done right

the maad city beat switch in particular was great. like kendrick hopped in a time machine back to 93 in the middle of the song
