Torae x 2DopeBoyz (Switch Remix Contest)

Any frequent visitor of 2DB will realize that myself and Meka support Coney Island’s Torae to the fullest. Dude has put in work over the years! If you’re still in the dark, allow him to re-introduce himself. With that being said, Torae & Shake thought it would be dope to collab on something…

Okay people here it is. I get an overwhelming amount of inquires on myspace about beat submission. So me and the good fellas at 2DB came up with something for all you aspiring producers. I’m going to be releasing my new video for “Switch” in the next few weeks as well as a digital 12″ and you’re going to be on it. All you have to do is download the a capella version and do what you do best. The contest will be judged by 2DB, myself and all the sites lovely visitors. The winner will receive placement on the “Switch” digital 12″ which will be available on iTunes, amazon and every other digital music outlet. Make it creative, make it original and make it dope…2 Dope. – Torae

All submissions please send to switch.remix[at]gmail[dot]com. Due date is September 9th and please remember to include your producer/DJ name with the mp3. Good luck and bring some originality!

    No details or guidelines, create a dope canvas for the song! He switches flows every 2-4 bars so be creative with it. switch up the beat at times, etc. it’s on you!!
