Hip Hop Forward

Post by ochaim » Wed Jun 17, 2015 1:24 pm

"Down For Whatever" was forwarded for this major label pitch, it's on my Taxi profile page.
HIP-HOP INSTRUMENTALS are needed by a Major Record Label that’s looking hard to find some great beats for their artists. They’re looking for Mid-Tempo Instrumental Tracks that could be heard on the same playlist as some of today’s top Hip-Hop acts, such as Kid Ink, T.I., Kendrick Lamar, etc., etc., etc. Please listen to the below references to get an idea of the vibe they need: “Be Real” by Kid Ink: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TvfG6IzBa0 “Project Steps” by T.I: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3garcJgPtco “Swimming Pools” by Kendrick Lamar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt0hLBF0rN8 Quoting the source: “Interesting production that pushes boundaries is always welcomed. If your track is chosen, your existing sessions will most likely be built on for the commercial release if they are competitive. There will be other co-writers on this, so if selected be ready to be flexible.” Even though the above references have vocals, please submit Instrumentals that are structured like songs, but with no vocal or lead line. Well-produced Tracks that are multi-layered and have innovative, repetitive motifs will make you stand out for this pitch! Having some instrumentation such as strings, pads, or piano on the top for some flavor could work well for this pitch. Please do not copy or rip off the above referenced artists in any way, shape, or form. Your overall production needs to be really competitive for this pitch!
