the greats means whoever u like and embodies the sound u r tryin 2 recreate

like i hate RZA and would never conciuosly do nything like him

same time, i like kev brown, but he can get monotonous...so he is a one in a while influence

dony like dilla, except 4 a few...the 1 i like the most from him, gobsmaker, its a clean 2 part 1 bar loop...just sayin...dont be afraid 2 loop

keep it simple (rappers need that)...layered...and complicate a beat once in a while/or during the hook

like one of my better beats is a 4 bar loop of a south american song
