BossFF007 104 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 The Beat 102.7 is my favourite radio station, I love the GTA IV and GTA IV TLAD track, TBOGT one not as much, but I do love arab money, It's a shame that they cut out all of Busta Rhymes' part. Other than that, The Beat is my favourite, then Massive B and The Vibe. When I travel to LC, The Beat 102.7 is definitely the first station I choose in the taxi, Kayne West - Flashing Lights is defo my favourite. When I'm chillin' with the homies in North Holland, The Beat is always on. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Yinepi 1,486 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I like the GTA4 version the best. TBoGT's DJ just won't shut up and I can barely hear the music. Plus GTA4's version has Flashing Lights and that song fits GTA. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

But GTA IV's is better, TBOGT had Arab Money which is one of my favourite songs, but they cut out Busta Rhymes part for some reason, which was stupid. Nonetheless both are good. GTA IV has good songs and so does TBOGT for the most part. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

JaeDan 101 405 Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 i like the songs from Funkmaster Flex, my only problem is, he keeps on talking on talking while playing the songs. My favourite is Statik Selektah, even his name is too weird. The songs that he play is street style. I love "Here in Liberty City" by TERMANOLOGY and I also love the "Carjack", it got good beat and the song talks about carjacking which is I always do in GTA IV (these are from TBOGT) Β i also love the soundtrack from IV. I love the "hip-hop" song from Saigon. It got a piano in it with a mix of hip-hop rap. Just chillin' with the homies in Northwood while listening "Where's My Money" by Busta Rhymes. And driving around Algonquin with my sports car at night while listening to "Flashing Lights". Β I really love The Beat. I'v been listening to eastcoast hip-hop since I was a little kid. I think hip-hop from New York is a little bit better than hip-hop from LA Link to post Share on other sites

Actually that is Funkmaster Flex, Statik Selektah is the best one Β But in my opinion, TBOGT's soundtrack is better to me It got better beats than IV's Edited January 26 by JaeDan 101 Link to post Share on other sites

billiejoearmstrong8 5,415 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 (edited) I love The Beat, some hits from the time (I'm not even mad about the autotuney ones, they give it a good mid to late 00s feel), someΒ more underground stuff, lots of nice Liberty City references, and a really authentic New York rap station feel. My favourite song is this, hilarious verses andΒ it's a banger Β Β Β Edited January 26 by billiejoearmstrong8 1 Link to post Share on other sites
