Win a Placement on Inspectah Deck's New Album + Get Flown to NYC!

Because this major placement is the chance of a lifetime, Inspectah Deck wants you with him in the studio to record the track. We will hook the winner up with a flight to New York and accommodation there. And needless to say, it’s all fair play: the winning producer will be on the same level as all the other producers on the album. The winner will get writing credit and be appropriately compensated.

To enter this Beat Battle you have to make a beat using any sample from Tracklib. Funk, jazz, psych rock, several stems – anything goes, as long as the song clearly contains a Tracklib sample.

We’re talking about the hell-raiser here who raises hell with the flavor. So one word of advice to impress Rebel INS: make sure you produce a banger on that Wu-Tang tip. The winning beat will of course be selected by Inspectah Deck himself.

Winning producer will get:

• A placement on Inspectah Deck's new album
• Writing credits and publishing on the song
• Flights and accommodation for 3 days in New York, USA
• To record the song with Inspectah Deck in the studio

5 runner-ups each will each receive:

• 1 Category C Sample License from Tracklib
• 100 Tracklib download credits
• A shout-out from Inspectah Deck himself
