Here you will find my latest beat with a similar style to Xxxtentacion I called "Blame Game". The beat is a melodic trap instrumental beat with a mixture of guitar riff samples backed by a trap drum pattern.
The undertone of the beat has intricate percussive elements while the core of the beat is built an around a hook vocal melody.
The majority of Xxxtentacion instrumental have very little change-ups, here I only created a middle 8 to define certain changes in song structure.

Producing XXXTentacion Blame Game
Jahseh Dwayne Ricardo Onfroy, known professionally as XXXTentacion and commonly referred to as simply X, was an American rapper, singer, and songwriter. Wikipedia
In his early teenage years, he developed a passion for music. He was drawn to nu-metal and hard rock as well as rap, and tried to teach himself how to play the guitar and the piano. In middle school, he said his aunt and mother tried to encourage this interest by signing him up for chorus, but he eventually got kicked out of the program for punching a classmate.

XXXTentacion had a very melodic sound where he both rap and sang the hooks on his songs. For this instrumental, I wanted to recreate something that has a commercial sound but still has that sadness and emotion you hear in XXXTentacion's records.
Popular songs such as Sad, and Moonlight struck accord with me and I was inspired to create a melodic commercial sounding instrumental. Similar to the beats that XXXTentacion or fans of XXXTentacion would like to sing or rap over.
