The beat runs at 172 BPM, is built on a sample, and is free for non-profit use only. ## What a Hurricane Wisdom type beat actually is A type beat is a beat that borrows the sonic signature of one artist without copying a specific song. In the case of Hurricane Wisdom, the signature is melodic, sample-driven and emotionally raw: sung-rap hooks, minor-key loops, and drums that sit back rather than push. Producers label these instrumentals "type beat" so that singers and rappers searching for that sound can find a ready-made canvas, and so that the producer's name travels with the style rather than with a single track. "Soul Tied" follows that formula directly. It is tagged as a sample type beat, a Florida type beat, a melodic type beat and a trap type beat at once, which tells you what to expect: a chopped or filtered vocal or instrument loop carrying the emotion, with 808s and trap percussion underneath. The tempo of 172 BPM is on the fast side for the subgenre, but at that speed the beat naturally reads as double-time — the perceived groove lands around 86 BPM, which is exactly where melodic rap and sung hooks sit comfortably. ## How "Soul Tied" is built: tempo, sample and drums "Soul Tied" is a sample-based instrumental at 172 BPM, and the sample carries the melodic identity while the drums carry the genre. That division of labor is the core of the style. The loop supplies the chord movement and the emotional tone; the drum pattern supplies the bounce that makes the beat rappable. Practical points for anyone recording over it: 1. Set your DAW to 172 BPM and the grid will line up with the beat's double-time feel; if you prefer counting half-time, work at 86 BPM. 2. Write to the sample's loop length rather than forcing a standard 8-bar verse — sample beats often breathe in 4- or 2-bar cycles. 3. Leave space in the low midrange for the 808; the sample already occupies the melodic frequencies. 4. Keep the vocal melodic and conversational rather than dense — the style rewards hooks and sung ad-libs more than double-time rapping. 5. Mix the vocal slightly forward; sample beats tend to be busy in the upper mids. The producer also published the drum kit used on the beat, which is useful if you want to extend the arrangement, add a bridge, or build a second beat in the same pocket. ## Free download vs. lease: the exact terms "Soul Tied" is distributed as a free type beat, but free does not mean unrestricted. The stated terms are precise, and they matter more than the download button: - Free use is limited to non-profit purposes — practice recordings, demos, freestyles, and anything that is not monetized. - If you release a song using the beat on any music distribution service and want to earn money from it, you must purchase a lease. - Credit is mandatory and must appear in the song title as "prod. thesshabo". That last condition is the one most artists get wrong. Credit in a description field or a comment is not what the terms ask for; the producer's name belongs in the title of the track itself. If you plan to upload to streaming platforms, treat the lease as a cost of release, not an optional extra, and keep the license file with your project files. ## Common questions from listeners and artists The comment threads under beats like this one tend to repeat the same handful of concerns, and they are worth answering directly. First, the drums: some listeners feel the sample outshines the percussion and that the drums could hit harder. That is a taste call, but it is also actionable — if you lease the beat you can request a version with a different drum mix, or rebuild the drums with the linked kit while keeping the sample. Second, the "can I sing or rap on this" question: at 172 BPM the beat supports both, and the melodic type beat tag signals that sung hooks are expected, not tolerated. Third, there is the collaboration question. Producers and vocalists regularly pair up on platforms like BandLab to trade verses over free beats, which is a legitimate non-profit use under these terms — but the moment that collaboration goes to a distributor, the lease applies. Fourth, artists ask whether their own material is good enough for this kind of beat. The honest answer is that the beat sets a ceiling on the vibe but not on the writing; the sample-driven style exposes weak hooks quickly, so demo your idea a cappella first and only then commit to a full session. ## How to get the most out of a sample type beat session Start by listening to the loop three or four times without writing anything, and note where the sample changes. Sample beats often have a subtle variation every few bars, and those variations are natural places for a hook to lift or a verse to turn. Record a reference vocal — even a mumbled one — before you write final lyrics, because the phrasing of the style is melodic and the words have to fit the contour of the loop, not the other way around. Keep your session organized: save the beat file, the license, and a text note with the required credit line in the same folder. When the song is finished, check the tempo and key metadata against the beat's own details so streaming platforms do not pitch-shift or time-stretch your upload. And if you plan a series of songs in this lane, the drum kit linked by the producer is the fastest way to keep your own productions sonically consistent with the beat you started from. ## All links from the video - High-quality download and lease purchase: https://bsta.rs/8vqACy - Drum kit used on the beat: https://bsta.rs/t5CPrq ## Summary "Soul Tied" is a free Hurricane Wisdom type beat by thesshabo, published on the December channel, running at 172 BPM with a sample-led arrangement and trap drums.

The free download is limited to non-profit use, so any release on a distribution service that generates revenue requires a lease. Once leased, keep the license file alongside your project and add the required credit in the song title. **What credit do I have to give the producer?** The credit must appear in the title of your song as "prod. thesshabo". Putting the name only in a description or a comment does not meet the stated condition, so build the credit into the track title from the start. **What tempo and feel should I expect from the beat?** The beat is set at 172 BPM, which reads as a double-time groove — roughly 86 BPM in half-time counting. That pocket suits melodic, sung-rap delivery and hooks rather than dense double-time rapping. **Can I change the drums or add my own sections?** Yes, once you hold a lease you can request or produce alternate versions, and the drum kit used on the beat is linked separately so you can extend the arrangement or build matching beats. Rebuilding the drums while keeping the sample is the usual way to get a harder-hitting mix.
