I got original production, so give me advice on what more i can do with the beat.

tell me if theres replay value, delivery , flow , and anything else that you see needs to be pointed out.

not a bad little offering here. I think you've got time to develop your mic presence and charisma on the track, but you're riding it right - just gotta kind of... come into your own if you know what i mean

keep grinding!

check me out!

the beat is not so good honestly.. very dissonant lol. and needs mixing. I like the part around 1:25 when it changes, dope.

you need to work on the delivery and mixing. I like the confidence and the lyrics but there's plenty to work on. but yeah the flow goes off a lot of times. But I think you have to start to focus on more technical stuff before proceding, like the quality, the structuring and the way you deliver your message.

btw, u white??

nah im indian, and thanks man. i need all teh advice i can get

[Nefarious]

Im thinking you could have some better quality maybe or mixing not sure im not the best on that sort of advice cause im a writer and rapper but im kind of used to whatever quality there is so it didnt really bother me, im just saying maybe you might want to fiddle with a few things not everyones like me i would settle for banging on a pot as my beat if thats all i could have, i love the lyrical part of rap
so when i listened close and got to hear your writing and admire how you put it all together i was bobbing my head throughout the whole thing, and it was a much better beat choice compared to the last one i listened to, keep killing tracks.

wow, now thats fucked up.

Dude, the guy just took your $20, shit on your chin, gave you a beef stew and ran off...

That dude is terrible, he made your voice sounds soooo shitty. The other tracks had great vocals and this one is like you were spitting into a mic thru a closed door. The lyrics were good, on the other hand.

I think you have a lot of potential bro. I've said it before, although not sure if they approved it yet,(God I hate that we have to wait for approval...really takes away from this board) but I think you have a unique voice and if you use it in THIS lane that this song was, it could really work for you. It sounded believable.

I forget the cats name that has a really soft voice rapping about killing people and eating souls..his voice plus his delivery didn't match the lane he was driving in...you on the other hand, here..did.

Thats the good stuff, as far as criticism...Your voice should be louder over the beat. If you have a mixer turn your voice up more. (At least that is how it sounded in the cheap head phones I had at work) I think you need to work on quality control, your falling off the beat in some parts and just saying "Fuck it, that can stay on my finished work".

This happened to me when I used to record on a program where I couldn't fix specific parts easily. I would have to nail the entire song the first time...lol it used to suck. Now I can go fix specific bars and you need to do that.

It really messes up the rhythmic presence and the idea that you know what your doing. At times it seems like you really got your shit together and the only thing holding you back is equipment and mixing know how...and at other times...its seems like you need to work on your delivery more.

Luckily for you, this part is fixable with time and practice so keep it up and don't stop recording and go invest in some better equipment. Hell you can get a decent mic that comes with Pro Tools SE (Good starting point) for only 90.00 bucks.

Build you some sound proof foam and make a miniature booth to help control sound or buy some reflectors and you can start making some decent sounding tracks.

something like this (you can find cheaper at some places)
