Let's speak about beat switches for a moment ..

I'd have to this Above the Law song (2:55) is one of best :




Classic West Coast shyt.

I think given the constraints of a hip hop song. A complete switch up adds a good dynamic to a track.

What's your thoughts? What else do you think? Timbo is pretty renowned for it. Especially on his tracks with Missy. What's the best switch ups?

"Kalifornia" Above Tha Law ft. Kokane - YouTube


Classic West Coast shyt.

Ayo, when I read the title this was the FIRST song I thought of! The 1st beat was cool, but when I used to bump this in my ride I would FF to the second...


Anyway, RBL Posse used to have a grip of beat switches whenever Black C and Mr. C would take over, I always thought that was tight.
