Here's 100 minutes of boom bap, the distinct style emerging from the East Coast scene during the golden age.
As always, this is a playlist curated to be good for jiujitsu. My job here was pretty simple; it turns out if you sample a bass drum on the downbeat and a snappy snare on the upbeat, you have a foundation that seems to work great for the gym, and I have no idea why.
Grab the playlist for free on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music or YouTube with the links above, or check out the list of songs below and add any to playlists of your own.
