Those boring flavorless beats that have no distinctive qualities to make them stand out. They are just there. Even wack beats have something about them that makes them stand out; even if what makes them stand out is terrible. Those generic beats drain me for some reason. I'd rather listen to pop radio because at least the wackness on there is a lot more tolerable.

If beats were food, the dope stuff would be the scrumptious, well seasoned meals; the wack stuff would be the stuff that's too salty, over seasoned, or overcooked; and the generic stuff would be the foods that have the potential to be good if they had the right seasonings added but since they don't, they're just bland. They're like a plain bowl of rice or grits.

You hear a lot of bedroom producers on YouTube with that generic style.
