Common Elements Heard In This Genre
The kick drum also has a very aggressive top end were roughly around the 80htrz, and 120htrz is boosted using an eq while and thing below 60htrz is cut off.
This makes room for the 808 to move freely and gives the kick drum the ability to “KNOCK” or punch through the mix cleanly. The background percussive elements like the snares, hi-hats and percs tend to be very busy.
Examples In The Music Industry
Two specific examples of hard rap beats come to mind when I think about the music that I like in hip hop. Both of these beats are significant influences on my music production.
Drake’s The Language is a prime example of a hard rap instrumental. The instrumental has little to no instrumentation. This is the norm in this sub-genre of trap music.
The kick and the 808 baselines move very quick.
The drums and the 808 sound like they are punching through the mix accompanied by a hidden melody in the background. This instrumental is so open but aggressive for Drake to shine.
