*Cue DJ Premier scratch*
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9…
10!
I been in this game for years, it made me a animal
It’s rules to this shit, I wrote me a manual
A step by step booklet for you to get
Your game on track, not your album pushed back…
Rule Numbero Uno.) Never let know one know,
how much, samples, you hold, cause you know
your sound brings you originally
give your main sound up, next man making YOUR bucks
Number Two.) Never Let em know your next groove
don’t you know a beat is based on riding the timing
Take from your highness (uh-huh)
I done spent mad ticks on this shit, choppin clips and kicks
Number Three.) Get some guys who flow run deep
with rhymes that get they ass up, never scared to mash up
ready like “And What!”, grindin for that fast buck
then your beats become SONGS, ready to cash up
Number Four.) I know you heard this before
Never let shit slide, until that check get signed

Number Five.) Never have them ask, Where the bass at?
I dont care if you makin House, make it bounce
Number Six.) That goddamn credit, dead it
you think a broke rapper payin you back, shit forget it
Number Seven.) This rule is so underated
keep your snare and you kick drums completly separated
Treble with low mud don’t mix like two dicks and no bitch
your mix will sound like seirous shit
Number Eight.) Always keep the beats on you
you never know what chance you might run into
Number Nine.) Shoulda been number one to me
If your tracks ain’t beatin’ stay the fuck from the streets
Your drums ain’t hittin they ain’t tryna listen
They’ll trash it from beginning, never to get a mention
Number Ten.) A strong phrase.. Getting Signed, men
strictly for live men, not for freshmen
If you ain got the clientele say hell no,
Record Labels want they money.. rain, sleet, hail, snow
Follow these rules you’ll have mad bread to break up
If not, at least good hobby to spend the day up
Studio is your temple, beats is how your pray up
Heavy in the grind, stay up..you’ll be glad..
Hard work have you cop a Range up, with these beats
You’ll be stuntin spendin lotta cake up
making hits every time you wake up
Gotta go, gotta go, producers gettin weight up, word up..

Yo..that was quite creative! I think #4 was my favorite though (it applies to many more areas than just producing). Did u have to add the track at the end…I didn’t get any work done for like 20 minutes for pushing replay! LOL!

LoL..Yeah that #4 is the golden rule in anything..just like the original Biggie one (Never get high on your own supply). Ten Crack Commandments is one of my fav songs..that beat is simple but hard..
