In this tutorial, we produce a beat for an R&B singer like Summer Walker. To create this track, I found inspiration in producer London On Da Track. Get my chord pack: sguy.co/chords
London On Da Track produced many of the tracks on Summer Walker's latest album. So I thought it fitting to take his production philosophy for this project and work around a 90s R&B sample.
