Watch Jahlil Beats Make a Beat With Random Records
Mass Appeal has returned with a new episode of Rhythm Roulette, this time calling on Roc Nation producer Jahlil Beats.
The series challenges producers to make a beat by sampling three random records, chosen from a record store while blindfolded.
A native of Pennsylvania, Jahlil is best known for producing street anthems like Meek Mill’s “Ima Boss” and Bobby Shmurda’s “Hot N#gga.” He has also worked with superstars like Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Diddy, and Rick Ross.
Watch above to see Jahlil make a track with LPs that he picked up at Repo Records, one of Philadelphia’s oldest vinyl stores.
