[multipage= How To Make Hip Hop]
Making hip hop takes practise and requires knowledge. The easiest way I find making hip hop is download drum kits and soundfonts or vsts. Hip Hop music is usually made in a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). The easiest DAW to use, in my opinion, is FL Studio. FL is pretty easy to use once you get used to it, and the best thing about it is there are loads of tutorials on how to make hip hop in FL. If you want to find a tutorial on how to make a similar sounding beat to “On My Level” by Wiz Khalifa, then you probably need to look up how to make a dirty south beat. Anyway, here is a simple tutorial on how to make a beat




I can’t help you with getting drums or soundfonts, but for all you premium users, I posted a thread with a few VST’s and DAW’s. Also feel free to request any VST’s there as I should be able to get them
