Help: Rookie beat maker

[Noddy301]

Sup yall I need help. Im trying to make these beats but I dont know how to count bars. For example I dont know if a section of the beat is long enough for a rapper to spit "16 bars". For example take this beat "We got Money"

[Mindset]

why don't you just use a metronome

 

[mentalattica]

yeah metronome, or if your using software set it to display beats and bars then set your tempo.

 

[Noddy301]

So when the metronome hits the 4th count that equals 1 bar?

 

[mentalattica]

in most cases yes. click-click-click-click = 1 bar.

 

[Noddy301]

Appreciate it man
