We are giving you a break from the themes and giving you some raw vocals to see what the community can do. There is written vocals, a hook, and a freestyle at the end to use in your entries.

You can use as much or as little of the vocals as you like.

This is a theme that leaves plenty of creativity and interpretation for producers. So let's see what epic creations the comunity can create with these vocals.

The vocals:

Remember the entries for the Beat Battle League are judged on:

  • Sound Quality: does the beat sound crispy, in speakers and headphones, is there cracking or recording errors? How loud can we play it before you notice quality issues? etc

  • Technicality: what are the skills you displayed in making this beat? The technical aspects of the your craft. The layers and sounds do they match? How many? etc

  • Creativity: how unique your entry is. How well it revolves around the universal theme? Holy smokes we have never heard that sound before? A creative video and/or artwork o yeahhhhh.

Also, sharing the story about the creation of your art in your Steemit post helps the judging panel and community gain perspective and knowledge on yourself and the message you are sharing.

@chiefmappster @andrewlyte DamonkIAM is on some knowledge reigns supreme raps and showing us a path, like a guidance counselor. Hence, the title of this track. You will also notice I lowered the pitch of DamonkIAM's vocals. I was testing something, then I forgot to put it back. Enjoy.

Sampled: Yabby You & King Tubby - Oh City of Zion/Zion Dub [Dub Plate]

Very well done!

Mannnnn whattttttt this is so freakin epic.

Love how you play with the vocals in the beginning like extending "isssss" and "dooo" and the effects you have at 1:13-1:18 holy smokes so awesome.

And how you layer that sample with the vocals and the beat is so dopeeeee. I can't strive how much I love this.

I like how you lowered the pitch and all the details in this entry. Appreciate you pushing this community with your high-quality entries.

Namaste

I appreciate that man

good luck everyone! I will be working overtime shifts this week, so I will not be able to get into this one. :(

Awh shucks. Sening ya positive energy buddy. Respect that work ethic

@chiefmappster
Hey dude, thanks for all you do on steemit, I keep stumbling over your posts and calls to loving action ;)

Would love to post my entry but I need more time. At the risk of not having been thorough enough in reading the contest rules, let me ask how long will I have til week14 closes?
7 days from your original posting this, i.e. 3 more days?

Thanks again, I am stoked there is such a lively production community on steemit.
Love!

Wow appreciate you and the positivity.

And that was my fault I didn't highlight the ending date it usually a week long but we are going to extend it until this Friday night, December 8th. Seemed like some wanted more time and that is totally okay with me.

You're welcome buddy and so pumped to hear what you got for the community o weee.

Much love

Not only did this force me to try something new, I also love to get the hang of deadlines.
It really is time I learned that lesson you know?

I forgot to put beatbattle in as first tag, I changed it but it will not update as first tag.
Hope that won't be an issue ;)

Here is my entry:
I changed how this dsound link is displayed because the dashes would kill it otherwise
