In my opinion, after seeing them all? Erick Sermon. That shit was flat out amazing. Ski and Black Milk brought it too.

I saw 88 keys episode and I wonder why they even bother posting it... it was horrible...
You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

with 9th right behind him. But I think 88 had the worse end result.

>how was 9ths bad?? he made three different beats... > >2 of em were dope... 1 was borderline flames. >
The other guys made better than he did, in my opinion.
>what did i miss? i mean he was using the maschine... but...he >always used DAWs lol
So did Ski, I'm not really sure why his choice of equipment would be brought up in a thread about who had the best beat.
>88 keys has always been wild overrated IMO. right place right >time cat
I agree. I mean I like his music when he's on, but he was in a situation that afforded him a lot of opportunity. That isn't bad at all, it's a break a lot of people deserve. I could say the same for 9th in that regard.

10. "Obviously not the best, but the Oh No one is really underrated" In response to Reply # 0
First of all, I love this show a lot as it caters to exactly the type of thing I'm into and I'm super glad it exists and continues to get big name guys on it. Props to Mass Appeal for this.
But I wanna touch on the Oh No episode. I would say most viewers were rather disappointed--or even downright disgusted from seeing his studio setup--but that one is exactly what rhythm roulette is about: challenging yourself. 9th Wonder, to me, clearly made a mental note about where the soul section was and I kinda consider this cheating. Oh No went for n64 cartridges... now that's bravery. He got really rough picks, too, but if you really give the beat a chance, especially with at the part with the muted "cheers", I can really see some genius at work. Oh and when he added that ghost snare, it was easy to see how naturally beatmaking came to him.
Anyway, I agree with Erick Sermon probably having the best end product. Large Pro is there as well. Lotta great beats came outta this series.

Has anyone checked out Against the Clock from FactTV or On the Spot from Maschine Masters? ATC is the better of the 2, but not better than RR. Both are still cool to see the "something from nothing" beat making approach.
