For this battle we thought we would combine it with a tribute to the late great Ray Liotta.
it’s time to put your shinebox away and get to grips with the Goodfellas soundtrack.
One beat per entry and you can sample any track or tracks used in the movie Goodfellas for your beat.
you must also include a snippet of Ray Liotta dialogue in your beat, the dialogue can be used as an intro/outro or anywhere in-between, that’s up to you.
Drums as per usual can be from any source.
As an added bonus your beat can include an acapella or verse of your choice, preferably of the more gangster variety in-keeping with the topic, I’ve kept that optional as you might prefer to use dialogue from the movie within your beat.
but there is nothing to stop you using both.
