dont dig the kick...its too hard....but other then that, this shit is nice...sample seems a bit to far behind the beat, maybe turn the kick down a bit and the main sample up...anyway, this was nice

yeah man that kick drum aint sounding too hot. other than that, it's pretty cool. the mc is nice, does his thing. nice bass work. i think you could turn the main sample up a bit actually, too. with different drums i'd be digging this more.

This is pretty nice. I can understand you not wanting to change the drums but the kick pops to much. Some sugestions: adjust the EQ on the kick to take out some treble(if possible), pitch it down a little, turn the velocity down, or add a little reverb. Any one of those should keep the timbre of the kick and make it a little less abrasive. This is the type of shit that is difficult hear yourself, so you gotta trust other peoples opinions.

Also, one of the drops (second measure) lags a little behind the beat. The progression is nice. Enough variety to keep it interesting. This is far to short though. Could be real hot with a couple little tweaks.
