the melody of the song on each part is literally built around the hi hats and beat hits

I’m standing on it

Why do they call it a hi-hat?

How what the f***
You guys are gaslighting me

Knock knock

Future Touch the Sky is an amazing song

Southside cooked

Username checks out

I feel what he sayin lol it’s how I keep up with the rhythm of the beat and it’s harder to have faster tempo songs without a hi hat tbh

U are saying its bad?

Shut up kid! You didn’t have to go through the Great Hi Hat Famine of 2027! Didja?!

But that’s the question of tempo. He’s saying that the literal melody portions of this song would not work without hi hats, which is just incorrect.

If I’m making a beat with a slower tempo I almost always don’t use hi hats cause it throws off the rhythm I’m trying to create. Opposite for beats around 150^ bpm

I’m saying FBG
Don’t want no smoke!

just say you don’t like modern trap beats nigga

been saying this

That’s not even what I’m saying

How did this become I don’t like modern trap beats

hi hats are awesome but southside did kinda start the trend of making the most insane pitch shifts, patterns, etc that sometimes are just too f***ing much and kinda funny

i respect folks like metro and c note who keep it simple and lowkey

I love how wild DMV and stepp beats get with their hats lol

Hi hat god kinda

This is one of the funniest takes I’ve seen on here

I wouldve hated if "its going down" by young joc had hi hats

Thank you bro
I’m like have we been listening to the same s***?

Niggas literally placing the hats on 1/6 for rolls, swinging that s*** back to 1/4 and then raising them up two octaves in a single pattern

buddy listening to a future song and all he can hear is the hi hats gritting his teeth I’m f***ing CRYING

b******ization of the instrument

it can absolutely be done well, one of my fav beats when i was fist getting into hip hop was the titular track on Q’s oxymoron

like those hats are f***ing insane on the whole track and it adds so much character😭😭

but sometimes , especially these days with so many folks copying southside and others, it’s just too much imo
