  • Beat count is a Beats per step in the bar..lol

  • tempo count.... hmm.....

  • Tempo count?

    what?

  • Not just typical in East-Coast beats, but in all beats. Snare is most likely always placed on the 4th tempo count.

  • even me, with yrs of experience, enjoy these vids... it kinda gets a different perspective going.  i mean. when i make a beat i dont personally structure them in any given way. i build the beat more complex, usually... is that normal for an east coast rapper/producer? lol
