Recorded at Milwaukee HFCA HS.

Written by Jerry, Jastacia, Jamarion, KeKe, Mr Derrick.
Produced by Mr. Derrick.

Mr. Derrick told the class they should be able to make a Milwaukee beat in FL Studio in 3min or less since they are producers from Milwaukee.  They didnt beleive him, so he did it himself, replacing the traditional Milwaukee Low End 808s with a growling bass track. The class loved it and some of our best writers decided to write about their Summer!
Mr. Derrick has been training Amir as an engineering apprentice. Amir said Mr. Derrick's original version had too much bass, so they made 2 copies and Mr. Derrick did a car test shootout. Amir's version won, because Amir was right! So we are listening to Mr. Derrick's mix with Amir's bass submix included! Well Done, Amir!

After completing the 2nd semester class beats, this beat was the second Block 2 had made together. Block 2 voted on beats and brainstormed about song content depending on the beat. Someone said, ""being successful"", and Mr Derrick followed that up by intensifying that student's original idea saying, ""Winning"". Everyone agreed, and Block 2 ended on WinWinWinWin!

Speed Racer - EMANPREPAID

Recorded at Milwaukee HFCA HS.

Written by Mr. Derrick.
Produced by Jayden, Xaire, Zaria, Mr Derrick.

Block 5 made the class beat together as a group and all agreed that we should write about manifesting our success. Harmonee and Zaria were supposed to be on the song with Xaire, but they both changed their minds. This leaves Xaire with a solo song as her first recording in the N4N studio at HFCA! Mr Derrick chose not to give her any advice about rapping the verse or how to flow it. Xaire did a great job and her energy and personality shine throughout the performance. We love this one! 

"Yeah right yeah right, we need big $$ in our lives!"
