The cover is fuckin crazy, all the artwork i've seen for this album has been really great.

On the production side, this is great shit. The beat sounds kinda weird and poppy at the start but by the end with the drums and the extra stuff it gives it a whole different image. Loved how you ended it too, slowly stripping away the layers to end it with just the beginning melody.

The concept of this song confused me a bit at first because the video with all the wartime video and shit gives it a bit of a conflicting image. Made me think it'd have a political slant, hence when the beat kicked in it sounded surprisingly chirpy.

The lyrics i liked, i mean some of it is stuff you've said before but a lot of it was great. I liked the "when the bitch puts up a fight" line in particular. The imagery of a comet crashing through the hole in the Ozone layer into the ocean was also damn good.

The flow was back and forth for me. On parts like

its just another prayer, something on another layer
someone watch me from above and help me save the city, mayor
its all just so infair, and makes me tear my fucking hair
but I know when both of you are close, I can live in the air


it flowed beautifully, but there were parts where it kinda trailed off and it kinda sounded like it would with an unexperienced beginner realising he's not spaced his lines out properly and he has to take pauses to let the beat come back or have some lines way longer than others and everything. Obviously i know that won't be the case but that's how it sometimes came across to me. Dunno it's probably just cause i read the lyrics while i listened to it.

The delivery was good as usual, once i got over the assumption it would be more sombre because of the video i could appreciate it. Nothing to really fault, everything is perfectly clear and you can still project the emotion. And i liked the melodic parts like the quote above, they complimented the beat very well.

The hook i like, as always your hooks are catchy and fit the beat well.

Overall a damn good track and i can't wait to hear Die a King lol, release that shit

Oh, and sorry it's taken me so long to get around to checkin it, as you know i been very busy :sweating:

Doesn't sound bad,but i don't think anyone would mind if you speed up your lyrics a bit,if anyone has a problem understanding lyrics u can just post them.I liked the flow at 2:58 :y: The lyrics are good,not sure they match the video tho :unsure: .But it's just my opinion as a hip-hop listener,i'm no expert.I haven't listened other tracks by you to compare,but as i said,overall doesn't sound bad :flower:

hey, took me a while to get into this track but as soon as the hook came in I was gripped by the "Hear Me Out" singing bit!! I listened to it again after the first time and now fully appreciate it, the message is deep!! good flow, not a bad job on the lyrics and the vocal quality is good too, you could have a bright future if you keep knocking out tracks like this!!! dope bro!! :y:

you've really upped ur singing abilities...but it was kinda repetitive...btw second verse shits on the first one...i really enjoyed the second one, truly did. the first one was cool but i didn't like when u extended ur words, i know some ppl will but i didn't.

good job man

it will contain a big ass collab that features Kez, C-Riz, Jay-19, Tom Chambers & D.Dubs (Emadyville)

I will most likely work on another big collab also to get more people on the mixtape. so yeah
