#3-Style Beat | How to Write Sampled Trap in the Style of Metro Boomin and 21 Savage
Continuing with the series. Inspired by the song "Runnin," today we'll create a sampled trap beat in the style of Metro Boomin and 21 Savage. We'll explore how to cut your own sample for a beat in Slicex, Boomin's trick with hats and cymbals, what runs to use for hi-hats, and much more.
This beat is absolutely free to use for your rap-trap-hip-hop experiments, so I'm sharing it on my VK page and also on Beatmaker.TV - tinyurl.com/lei2hu4x
