Won't Give In- Great sample, didn't really like the flow in the beginning, second verse I liked but again I just didn't like how you flowed on this seemed choppy.

One More Time- first verse was decent, hook i really like, the rhyme scheme and flow on the second verse was good but I feel like the delivery lacked some

Memory Lane- I fed this song before, I liked this track a lot

Legacy- Flow is very good and rhymes are nice, I like this concept, hook I like I just wish you woulda put a little more into it so it stood out more, second verse is great and rhymes are nice again, "i'll walk out as a zombie emcee" great line.

The Dark Side- I like that you sound different on this, good rhymes, flow is great, I like the hook, second verse flow was a little off in the beginning but the delivery and rhymes I really liked, third verse flow is great I liked how you worked the rhymes with it, overall this was really good, concept I liked.

Cold Winter- Flow is nice, rhymes good again, Hook was alright, second verse is dope

Raps benoit- First verse is dope, hook is great, rhyme scheme on second verse is dope rhymes are nuts, third verse same shit this was dope, best song by far, delivery, flow and rhymes on this were top notch.

Tick-Tock- I like this concept, first verse is dope, kinda like the hook it's different, i love this flow, you play the beat well with your delivery on this, third verse is great how you relate it to everyone and rhymes were great, i liked how you ended this song, this is one of the best so far.

Re-Do- I loved this first verse I just wish you sounded a little more angry, your words didn't fit your voice as much as they coulda I think, hooks nice, second verse was good but again the delivery sounds monotoned to me and it kinda takes away from your lyrics and this concept. I loved the concept but everything I said before brings this song down some.

Keep Building- Hook is great I like how you drag out words, flow is nice on this pretty flawless, rhymes are nuts again, again the hook on this is dope it goes great cause of how slow it is compared to your verses, second verse was dope rhymes again were solid I wish you woulda ended it stronger tho, third verse rhymes are crazy, this is one of the best songs.

I'm Coming- I fed this before and I remember this track cause its dope, rhymes, flow, delivery, hook were great, definitely one of the best songs I've heard from you or anyone on TR.

Twisted and Confused- love the hook good sample, I like how your voice is a little different on this, flow is nice, delivery is lacking some I feel, I love how you went back and forth with how you talked on the second verse and giving up then going back on the third verse. Delivery brought this song down a lot tho cause it was very monotoned.

Waitin in traffic- love the flow, verse is good, hook is decent, your voice fits well with this beat, I really like your lyrics on this shit, you ended the second verse well, I was feelin the lyrics on the third verse cause it was real personal at least thats what I took from it. Overall this is a good track.

What You Want- rhymes are nice I'm just not feeling this song, hook is real good for this track, i like how you told this story on this but again just this concept I'm not feeling. Your flow was good, delivery was pretty good, and I loved the third verse it's pretty damn funny

The Devil In Me- Delivery is good on this, I like the beginning sets up the song well, flow is good, I like this hook a lot, second verse was good, third verse makes this song great way to end this track. this was a dope song

Back Again- Nice intro, good flow, I like this delivery and rhymes are good, i love this hook and how you say "feelings" and "ceilings" flow on this is insane I really love how you worked with the beat, beat is a great choice for this type of song too, second verse is one of the best verses on this album, third verse is dope as fuck, this is my favorite song on this album, great way to end your album.

Overall there were a handful of songs that really stood out and had great replay value for me, the one thing that I thought brought it down and like I mentioned in a lot of the songs was the delivery cause you sounded very similar in a lot of songs and also the lyrics werent matching well with your delivery, like I said in Re-Do your lyrics said "I'm pissed off" but you didnt sound pissed off, the delivery was the only major thing I noticed. Your flows were on point throughout all the songs for the most part, I always thought your rhymes were dope and it showed on this. Overall this is a solid album with a few tracks that are REAL good, good work man :y:

Wont Give In- nice sample there…good beat…volume is low….mixing doesnt sound good to me
Especially since the hook sounds so clear your part sounds like sh*** ..no hate…I like the lyrics
Delievery is steady…a lil more in parts wouldn’t hurt tho…7.9/10

One More Time-nice ass flow….smooth…as I said great track…..hook is some catchy shit…admit it!
You lighted a blunt while recording haha…8.5/10

Memory Lane-mixing sounds waaay better…beat not my type…but flow is neat…lyrics are entertaining….all verses were satisfying …. 8.8/10

Legacy-flow seemed weird at the beginning and feels weird thru out the 1st verse..defo somthin unique but weird..hook is unique aswell..and very good..somthin new…good job…2nd verse sounds better to me…8.5/10

The Dark Side- damn amazing lyrical start….mixing sounds clear too….girl does a good job on the hook…lyrics are strong….2nd verse is my fav….3rd verse is weird lol 8.7/10

Cold Winter- love this beat… flow is steady…lyrics are there..hook is well mixed…not much to say 7.6/10

Rap’s Benoit-gave feed….amazing track 9.4/10

Tick Tock- nice nice…flow is nice again….beat choice is great…lyrics are great…hook could be better…that Tick Tock thing seems uncreative..lol…2nd verse :worship: 8.6/10

Re-Do- beat is ehh…quality is better again….flow is catchy…tho I like the hook…nice melodic flow to it..okay track

That Dude[Skit]- ha nice acapella….full of rhymes…7.9/10

Keep Building- flow is strong here….like the beat aswell…..1st verse was the best to me….singin in the hook..well….maybe a higher voice of you should be added and panned to the right or left 8.2/10

Im Comin- no faults….everything is on point…9.4/10…[not a ten cuz of the mixing]

Twisted And Confused- nice hook….mixing is ehhh…I don’t know….and I would like to have a smoother flow to such a slow hook….so yeah doesn’t fit as much…lyrics are okay….nuttin that knocks me out my chair… 7.5/10

Waiting In Traffic- mixing is clearer again….that some weird shit….newayz….hook is well overlayed...
Mixing is a highlight on this…lyrics are decent…flow has no flaws…2nd verse :y: 8.8/10

Want You Want- ehhh…mainstream shit…stupid to me..whole track 5.6/10

Devil In Me- delivery doesn’t really bring the lyrics over..get me?...beat doesn’t really sound evil enough too……lyrics are actually the shit…..hook has a right idea…and is actually catchy…some scott storch prolly could mix it into a banger but don’t blame you…prolly the best you could do for now…
Okay track……I love such concept but you didn’t delivery it it right to…8.7/10

Back Again- nice ass drums by mart….flow is again on that expanding shit….hook too….quick 7.2/10

Overall: you perfected this slow/expanding type of flow….now its time to speed/step it up…aswell the irregular mixing was a strange thing..and made the tape not as good as it should be…
Well actually I just can advice to go for a faster flow…and find your mixing final method….
Nice listen….but doubt that I will give it a listen a third time… :sweating:

Won't Give In- Beat ain't my kinda shit, when compared to yor other emotional songs, it's below par

End Of Line- Fed, Sick

Memory Lane- Fucking Love This, Fed

Legacy- Beat is alright, Verses are decent, no complaints,Chorus ain't that great and it ends too sudden

The Dark Side- Probably the weakest of your poppy club songs. Simply dont like this song

Cold Winter- Beat's cold and dark, loving it, shit was ripe for storytelling thougth chorus was a bit too loud man. Only downer was the voice doing wind effects at the end, takes the intenstity out of the track

Rap's Benoit-Sick, fed already


Tick Tock-Nice beat and you play the subject nicely, really nice listenable track

Re=Do- Don't like the beat, too poppy. Your delivery/emotion wasn't right, need to be angrier and sound pissed, though Dana does a solid chorus

That Dude- Love the rhymes and punchlines in this. Nice skit

Keep Building- Solid track here, Chorus is catchy as hell. Beat takes a backstage to let you spit your rhymes and you tear this track apart

I'm Comin- Your voice sounds drowned in the beat making it hard to listen, not great mixing, ruined the track, would like to hear it betterly mixed. Awesome beat tho, would love to rip it out

Twisted and Confused- Nice track, flow and delievery ois immense especially in the secomd part of the verses 1 and 2 where it's singsongy, your voice sounds diff on this one

Waiting In Traffic- Beat is ill, feel the lyrics of this, shit that i can relate to. Possibly the best track of the album.

What You Want- Not my cup of tea bro, though Chorus is catchy, i'll concede that but good for a club track.

do bonus track later
