Once you learn the basics you will be able to quickly learn how to create the best beats possible and these 3 tips below will help you to do so.

1. Audio Loops: This is by far one of the main elements of a hip hop beat and you should take great care when laying down your audio loops. Audio loops can be tweaked to give you the sound your looking for. Loops can be compressed, stretched, and you can add effects with plug ins.

2. Bassline: Another critical component of producing sick hip hop beats is to master laying down your basslines.
