I'm meeting with a million different people that try and make hyphy one particular uptempo beat, but to me u cant say Hyphy is one particular sound. Hyphy music to me is any music that slaps and makes you wanna move. Too Short's "Burn Rubber" is considered a hyphy track and it's not fast and Keak's "White Tee, Blue jeans, and Nikes" is at a average speed. So my question to u guys on siccness is "What makes a song Hyphy?"
IS THERE ONE PARTICULAR SOUND THAT MAKES A BEAT A HYPHY BEAT?

galaxy music.....space shit....bay shit...the bay always had this type of music...we always used more dounds than any other area...at one point I thought it was too mmuch going on in one beat....now I think we toned it down a lil and made them drums surface and road te beat with rhythm sounds and gurpin sounds for the hooks....we started that shit...now that's hyphy
A hyphy beat has certain characteristics about it, uptempo, synth-driven, space effects...but the same can be said about most of today's club music.
I think thats a part of the reason why The Bay is going to able to get some mainstream success, because the sound here is relevant to whats going on all across the board. I think we're making music thats on par with the rest of the industry
In the end a hot beat is a hot beat. I think what makes a track Hyphy is whats being said on the track, and like Meelo said, its more of a feeling than anything else.
