I voted for Beyond Good and Evil (if I hadn't said that before), I'm not looking forward to the Alex Da Kid one because I already know what it's gonna sound like, in my head I have something between INAD and Airplanes playing in my head...that's what all of his beats sound like anyways so yeah. Alex Da Kid just can't produce hip hop beats that I think are good.
Pretty sure he did LTWYL as well. And EVERYONE hates that. I dunno why, I like it. Wouldn't surprise me if he did Lighters (don't remember).
I voted for Beyond Good And Evil as well. Sounds dope.
LTWYL wasn't as bad as Airplanes (which just pisses me off nowadays, nothing against B.o.B who performs well on the two tracks, I'm saying this as someone who's not a fan at all), and INAD just isn't my cup of tea. This Alex track better have good rapping.
With regards to Alex da Kid songs, Airplanes is probably my favourite. I think the song which Alex Da Kid has recycled is absolutely brilliant, it's just that Em has rapped on an almost identical beat 4 times now, and it's getting annoying. But when I heard Airplanes for the first time, I did honestly think it was like the best thing I ever heard. I can understand why Em wanted a beat from him for Recovery. But by the time we got to I Need a Doctor, I just got tired of it. If you listen to the beat on Love the Way You Lie, Part II, and compare it to I Need a Doctor's, it's literally the same. It's like Alex da Kid just opened up the file and changed the instruments around.
Coming Home has quite a different beat though (apart from it having the piano intro like in LTWYL, but the rest of the song is strings rather than guitar, and it has a different percussion pattern, and it sounds more like a Just Blaze beat tbh).
