METAL GEAR BEATS is a classic sample-based Hip-Hop production collective founded originally in the 90's by S (Shawn Lov) who has been an active New Jersey MC and producer since the late 80's and also a mentee of the legendary Tony D (PRT, YZ fame). The other half of MGB is RAIDEN who is a very talented and experienced beat-smith in his own right, and has become a full partner in the METAL GEAR team over the course of many years and collaborative projects. The sound is early 90s East Coast, and the main tool for both producers is the legendary SP-1200. This collection is a generous helping of beats to serve as a free library of inspiration and place of respite for Dope MCs, young rappers with nothing except their homies trap computer beats to groove to, our friends in the hip-hop community, and all my Brothers. These are YOUR Beats. Please use them for your freestyles and projects or commercials free-of-charge, as long as its Quality! CREDIT: METAL GEAR BEATS, and please spell it Right and Exact.

I remember making this beat and it got really late cause I got mad immersed in what I was doing, and I spent ages getting the first flip down and how I wanted it. Then at like 2am I decided to try and flip another part of the sample cause I felt like I hadn’t done everything I could with the first, and when I came up with the 2nd flip I lost my mind on a different level, but had to keep it low key cause everyone else in the house was sleeping. I just mixed it there and then, went to sleep and first thing the next day revisited what I had to see what acapellas would work over it.

At the start of 2021 I began working on a beat tape and was seeing which of my beats mixed well together, and one of my favourites was the one I used here, which I bring in at 2:44. It’s rare that beats from different samples will mix together that well, the melodies must be in the same key etc, but I knew I had to incorporate that blend into this. I always liked that beat on it’s own too, so I’ll probably re-do that at some point in the future, here’s the original upload of that beat with a Raekwon acapella over it: https://soundcloud.com/tapeheadloops/street-astrologists
