    The fact that nobody has mentioned 50 Cent - Ski Mask Way upsets me greatly :503:

    I think both the original and remix have the same beat throughout, unless you mean the slight interludes sprinkled throughout it.
    OT, but I hate the OG 8 Ball. It just sounds terrible in comparison

    I think the interludes. It's the song they perform at their first concert in Straight Outta Compton.

    Frank Ocean's Nights has made it's way into being one of the best beat switches ever. :wow5:

    Michael Kiwanuka's Cold Little Heart one of my favourite switches this year.

    i don't have a top 5 because this isn't something that I really think about, but the beat switch on My Sub pt. 3 (Big KRIT) is godly.

    omg i forgot krit beat switches b/c its been so long since i last listened to any of his stuff

    but ya the one on the first My Sub is also good, and on the end of 1986

    the way krit does it is more like add variation at the end of the track tho, idk if id put any of his stuff with the tracks in my top 5.
