Jay-Z: Can’t Knock The Hustle (Remix)Well, it’s been one hell of a ride, but the remix contest has officially come to a close. Congrats to BGeezie who won week 11 with his remix of Lil Kim’s “Crush On You”. This last week you all remixed Jay-Z’s “Can’t Knock The Hustle”. It’s gonna be a tough call; that’s all I can say! This week made me wish we could dig up the acapellas to the whole Reasonable Doubt album and remix the whole thing!

Let’s get these polls open so we can finish this up and move on to the next contest. Yeah, that’s right, I said NEXT CONTEST. To all the cats that have been submitting beats, I need your input. Should we keep the remix contest the same, and just start a new theme (such as West Coast or Dirty South)? Should we add in some new rules? Or should we do a beat tape contest where I put up a sample and see how well you all flip it? Let me know what you think. We’ll start the new contest up in a few weeks after we get this mixtape out there.

Back to this week’s contest… Check out the remixes that were submitted below and make sure you vote on the right. Remember you must be registered with this site to vote; please don’t let that discourage you. The polls will close Saturday May 10th at 11:59pm EDT.

Here are the entries for Week 12: Jay-Z’s “Can’t Knock The Hustle”

    Yo Kev thanks for keeping this going. I’m thinking some west coast remixes would be nice- show us Cali guys some love. I think a beat tape contest might get a little stale with the same beats over and over, but who knows? Peace everyone- great remixes- although after American Gangster and this, I think Jay-Z needs a break with his remixes.

    Yo Kevin. Good looking out for hooking up the zshare link. I was kinda nervous that the joint i posted would be invalid or something since it was’nt a direct link. Yo the producers made a lot of heat for this joint. Props to everyone that did they thing.
    Peace

    yo Blinky, thnx for your props… i think you the first to give ur props to me…

    how is that possible? round 800 downloads from all remixes so far, but only 7 comments in this article and just 21 votes?

    please yo, download em remixes but dnt forget to VOTE for your fav remix!? without comments/props this game has no fun!!!

    props MIDIMarc, GC, Dutchmasters… loved your remixes!!!

    Np tuche, i think people are ok to vote but it is the registration that bother them.

  • http://kevinnottingham.com Kevin

    Yeah, it baffles me why people aren’t voting, but I don’t think it’s the registration. We have over 300 people registered with the site and there are constantly people registering each day. I’d love to open up the votes to everyone, but this is the only way make sure people aren’t voting multiple times. Maybe for the next contest we’ll try opening it back up again. Or maybe use a different polling system. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

  • Tuche

    i see Blinky, buh the reg only takes em 3mins of their lifes… they can wait 5mins do download the beats, buh they cant do the same to the registration!?

    Kev, i think its fair that each registrated user only vote once, cuz the polls wud be moved by friendship, ambition, and not for the content of the song… that aint hip hop!!!

    ppl may not vote for the best beat, but just to win or to let win… thats my word!
