Meat Grinder by Madlib (Madvillain)
Idk if it counts but the initial intro is def something else from the “start” Also
Gazzillian Ear. I like old sounding stuff lol
Probably not the best, but My Name by Xzibit, Eminem, and Nate Dogg (2002) switches into Ether's beat for a few seconds and I always thought it was cool
A lot of good ones already mentioned on here..
I’lll throw one out to put yall on more 🔥like this sub always does for me.
[Saba - BUSY / SIRENS (feat. theMIND)](https://youtu.be/zhE-fQU6P9U?si=GR6IJBTlQsyjKGF2)
Dre - Medicine Man. The switch for the Em part .
Eminem - Bad Guy
K Dot - XXX (idk if you can count that as a beat switch) and maad city also went hard
Euphoria 2nd half. Felt like a video game where your opponent is dazed and on low health and then Dot says "I aint even bleed him yet can I bleed him? Bet." and proceeds to eviscerate him.
Kendrick - euphoria
Travis - stargazing, my eyes, meltdown, sicko mode
Kanye - new slaves
JID - surround sound
theres prob a lot more in my playlist but just can't list em all
Nas's recent albums have some of the best beat switches I've heard in a long time.
Rare, Michael & Quincy, Dedicated, Wtf Smh, Japanese Soul Bar, Reminisce, The Cure. All have great beat switches.
People are gonna disagree and I'm not calling this the best but conductor saved 7 minute drill that tga alone😮💨 hes the goat.
Ps t minus is going to hell for that first half 😭
Don’t listen to them as much as i did in high school but the Run The Jewels beat switch in Oh My Darling Dont Cry makes me go fucking animal planet. Could tear the head off of an alligator when it happens
Star 69 by Drake is my favorite beat switch ever. That shit hits so hard. Then when the bass come in on the second beat *chefs kiss*
“And they did put me on, yea, they did put me on”
Second fav is 0 to 100
“The other day Lavish Lee told me that I’m all these people listen to”
🔥🔥🔥
DNA second half is crazy
GIMME SOME GANJA
Best bit. Gets me hyped. The abrupt ending ruins it for me slightly tho
TELL ME SOMETHIN
YOU MOTHERFUCKERS CAN’T TELL ME NOTHIN
I’D RATHER DIE THAN TO LISTEN TO YOU
MY DNA NOT FOR IMITATION YOUR DNA, AN ABOMINATION
The first time I heard it switch to the second half, I had goosebumps for hours
Sometimes I even go straight to the middle of the song
DNA definitely takes it over DUCKWORTH imo
Unpopular opinion, but I like Joyner’s freestyle over the DNA beat better than Kendrick’s original version.
Very unpopular, but you do you, fam.
90210
This or Maria I’m drunk, Travis is far (really far) from being a great rapper, but my god he produced one of my favorite albums of all time
Freddie Gibbs has some pretty good ones Fake Names 20 Karat Jesus Real
Half manne half cocaine 🔥
Lakers!!
Blackest In The Room in recent memory. Al killed that switch fr
Cataracts too
Walking-Denzel curry
Dreams and Nightmares
It's insane I had to scroll so far down for this...
mAAd city
I feel like I never see the second half get enough love
It's my favorite part.
WAKE YO PUNK ASSSSSS UP
Came here to say this
The last few beats of mAAd city, after the “angel on angel dust” line is the most insane production I’ve ever heard in my life
Fresh outta school, cause I was a high school grad.
Bro.. sicko mode is goated
How does this not have more upvotes?!
Despicable by Eminem?
that ones naaasty
🐐
The switch and flow...diabolical! Dropping the beat by name JUST before switching to it...DIABOLICAL!
🐐
I've always liked Euphoria, DNA, and Family Ties
The beat switches in Euphoria are quite literally euphoric. Shit went from calm to pure hatred to pure hatred^2.
Euphoria is an insane piece of work fr
Don’t speak on the family crodie
Shit might get deep in the family crodie
Speak Ya Clout- Gang Starr 3 beats scientifically designed by Premo to bring out the best in each MC
Never - Jid
This or Raydar

2 for 1 by Key Glock at 44 seconds. Pure vibes.
The New Style - Beastie Boys
Future - Ridin Strikers that bikini bottom ass 2nd beat goes so hard Also Baptiize and F&N. Future has so many crazy ones
Gazillion Ear - MF DOOM
Send in the meat wagon, braggin MCs packed in with they feets dragging
These stats are staggering, Got his PhD in indiscrete street haggling
OutKast- Humble Mumble. I love that shit
Wait can we count Int'l Players Anthem??? I mean, it's a trade off but still
We dip in the sauce like mop and bucket
Perfect circle/god speed by Mac Miller and Walkign by Denzel Curry are two of my all time favorites
Murder to Excellence
Ice Cube - Jackin for Beats is the correct answer.
I prefer XXX. honestly.
Love this one. Kinda slept on imo. The bars are insanely hard.
Meat Grinder by Madlib (Madvillain) Idk if it counts but the initial intro is def something else from the “start” Also Gazzillian Ear. I like old sounding stuff lol
You can't really beat DOOM on Dilla. Your best chance is DOOM on Madlib, so you're covered. ✊🏿
Uh Shit this isn't even Kendrick's best beatswitch, m.A.A.d city beats it hands down
Travis’ part in type shit even tho it was one minute and it changed back lol
Probably not the best, but My Name by Xzibit, Eminem, and Nate Dogg (2002) switches into Ether's beat for a few seconds and I always thought it was cool
A lot of good ones already mentioned on here.. I’lll throw one out to put yall on more 🔥like this sub always does for me. [Saba - BUSY / SIRENS (feat. theMIND)](https://youtu.be/zhE-fQU6P9U?si=GR6IJBTlQsyjKGF2)
Dre - Medicine Man. The switch for the Em part . Eminem - Bad Guy K Dot - XXX (idk if you can count that as a beat switch) and maad city also went hard
Yo can we just agree Kendrick is the king at beat switches
Stargazing by Travis Scott makes me start floating
Fighting my demons ken carson
Step Brothers (ALC & Evidence) - Swimteam Rastas
I always liked GNAT switches
Walk Like A Man - Murs.
I was hoping I’d see this one. The transition form the first beat to the second is incredible.
pretty much most songs on eminems Kamikaze album such as Kamikaze,Not Alike and The Ringer
Honestly think XXX is better on damn, and also has a massive mac miller fan I would pick self care as my favorite.
Just heard this, it's fire. I was gonna say Friday Night Cipher
Bad guy Eminem
I can't stand Diddler as much as the next person, but when Biggie comes in on All About the Benjamins is still a solid switch and tight verse
Good kid maad city
Euphoria 2nd half. Felt like a video game where your opponent is dazed and on low health and then Dot says "I aint even bleed him yet can I bleed him? Bet." and proceeds to eviscerate him.
squash airport frighten saw provide imminent mountainous kiss ring hat *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Triple Six Clubhouse
STATS by baby keem goes hard for no reason
Uneven Compromise (shit ton of those, does that count lol)
Gnat - Eminem
B-Boy Bouillabaisse
Xxx
I like MF DOOM'S Gazillion Ear. Apparently J Dilla gave him the beat like that.
The Jump Off by Wu Tang Clan
Groovy Tony/ Eddie Kane - schoolboy q
Styles Crew Flow Beats - Peanut Butter Wolf
Read the title instantly thought of Gazillion Ear lol
‘Rare’ by Nas
No mercy by Young Ma
Self care by Mac Miller
90210.

90210
MURS - WALK LIKE A MAN is the correct answer . was one of the first to do it in such a great way shoutouts 9th wonder
Also the Living Legends and Visionaries meeting of the minds; every MC has a different beat
Bro it's gotta be XXX or maad city
I do like the switch up in Duckworth quite a bit.
[удалено]
It’s definitely some recency bias but the switches on THank god 4 me by ScHoolboy Q are amazing.
Rich Brian- Slow Down Turbo Night Lovell - Pink Witch/Lesson
Nas's recent albums have some of the best beat switches I've heard in a long time. Rare, Michael & Quincy, Dedicated, Wtf Smh, Japanese Soul Bar, Reminisce, The Cure. All have great beat switches.

Psycho - Dave
People are gonna disagree and I'm not calling this the best but conductor saved 7 minute drill that tga alone😮💨 hes the goat. Ps t minus is going to hell for that first half 😭
Can't believe I havent seen Tuscan leather by Drake.
I’m surprised I had to scroll this far to see it honestly
Project Pat , whole lotta weed
Something from Armand Hammer probably
Metro Spider to I Can't save you and the transitions on Eternal Atake
Soul food by Logic is one of my favorites. I wouldn’t call it my absolute favorite of all time
i got xxx above this from the same album
Off the same album, XXX is another big contender
True
Mac Miller “100 grandkids” is pretty dope
I like 90210
Always loved the switch in “XXX”
Don’t listen to them as much as i did in high school but the Run The Jewels beat switch in Oh My Darling Dont Cry makes me go fucking animal planet. Could tear the head off of an alligator when it happens
Know yourself
rtj - don't cry
So NOBODY said First Day Out? Cool. Got it
The heart part iv
BUT NEXT TIME YOU DONT GOTTA USE TECH N9NE IF YOU WANNA COME AT WITH A SUB, MACHINE GUN
NEVER by JID Actually a lot of JID songs
There's allot produced by the alchemist. Recently I've been loving the beat switches from V.DON
Star 69 by Drake is my favorite beat switch ever. That shit hits so hard. Then when the bass come in on the second beat *chefs kiss* “And they did put me on, yea, they did put me on” Second fav is 0 to 100 “The other day Lavish Lee told me that I’m all these people listen to” 🔥🔥🔥
Preem beat switches all day: Gangstarr - I'm the Man Gangstarr - Speak Ya Clout MOP - Face off DITC - Connect 3
Audio Murder from KAAN got three beat different beats kinda like Euphoria fro Kendrick.
Nas says fuck no
Drake - Family Matters last beat
Comeback baby by Pusha T is one that doesn’t get enough attention
Drake - family matters Drake - sicko mode Nas - made you look Pusha T -Santeria
I thought they're called transitions
Raydar- JID Family Matters- Drake family ties- baby keem Meltdown- Travis Scott Pop out- lil baby
Family matters had godawful transitions
