Pretty good song Steve. Verses were great, the only negative thing I found in this was the chorus. I don't like it much at all, mainly 'cause your slant rhymes. I think it could have been better, but you like it so it's all good. The vibe of the song, especially the beat, is reminiscent of 25 To Life I noticed. Your verses, the flow was great (It seems that's what you've been working hard on since Life Overdose LP, along with improvement on multies). Mixing was clear, I think you've got what you want to sound like in the verses down. No overdubbing and stuff. Keep at it man! Good luck with the meeting. :y:

nice track man, it had a great vibe :y: I liked the vibe of the beat.

And you flowed real well to the beat, lyrics were nice and the mixing was clean :y: As far as the hook, I thought it was nice, it actually went well with the beat, and was catchy. I'm not good at feeding rappers lol, but I did enjoy the track, so nice job :y:

This was pretty boring for me. You still have the same delivery as when I first heard you and you use the same flow too. You're rhymes seem to have gotten worse in the process. I feel like you can do much better.
You think your personal attacks make up for what you lack?

First off, the quality was flawless, sounded 100% professionally done.

I really liked the hook, flowed nice, lyrics were solid, this was very well done.

As for your verses, the second verse had the best flow by far, which I think had a lot to do with how you structed your rhymes and the actual content, what you said seemed to change a lot and that helped, but at the same time it almost made that verse seem outta place, like the content in that verse didn't really fit the song, at least that's how I feel. The first and third verse were good flow wise also, the first verse came off as pretty corny tho, almost too corny, cause songs like this usally are, but the line with "pepsi" kinda had me :confusion: The third verse I think was the best content wise, and the very end was the best for the subject of the song.

As for your delivery, it yet again sounds very reminiscent, it worked for the hook, and it sounded good on this song, but it's always seems to sound the same, and that's the only problem I really saw with it. That, and well, the fact that you kept the same delivery throughout really took away from the ending of the song, where you, based on your lyrics, were upset/angry, but your delivery didn't show that, only the lyrics.

Overall, this track was great. Loved the hook, quality was good, second verse shined with the flow. Only problems were the slightly corny first verse, the second verses content seeming off-subject, and the lack of real emotion at the end of the song. It may sound harsh, but I'm just giving my honest feed, and mean it when I say this song is really good.

Good luck at your meeting to, I wish you the best homie :y:

Thanks for the awesome feed everyone, and thanks for the best wishes!!
As I was explaining to Dubs, if you're thinking the 1st verse is corny then I've done my job, because that's what I was aiming for because this is one of the few radio tracks I'm pushing for when I go up next week.
I feel like I should mention that the hook may not be done yet, my friend was adding on a layer of his singing vocals as I was leaving but we'll see how it turns out, lol. I also recorded a couple other tracks aswell yesterday but I'm trying to keep the other one's top-secret for now. The other radio single is called "My Job", a track about music love and I'll be sure to post that up once I get back from my trip!

Again, thanks for all the support everyone, it doesn't go unnoticed!

This track is chill as hell, something to wake up to. Good summer track too. Beat is something new, nice choice. I thought your delivery was better than I heard you last. The flow was great, and I liked the hook, worked nicely together. Reminds me of Twista's Sunshine track. The concept was nicely executed and the qaulity was fresh. Quality track bro, nicely done. :y:

Mind returning feed on my new track?

Word i agree wid the laid back part.
Its a feel good type track, like the beat gives that impression, plus the verses go beautifully :y:
Aiyo if this is a radio track then i think the chorus goes well cause, if LUDA's "how low can you go" can get addictive then so can "sticks and stones its the same old story" lol
Good stuff B
Keep doin it, and good luck wid you're interview :b:

I like the beat man, but pfft... fucking tags :tounge2: lmao SCARECROW!!.... :shakehead: soundclick.
lol... yeah, I'm a soundclick hater

hey man, your quality is amazing, good thing about recording in studios :worship: great great quality

yeah, man, this is a great track, nothing really to feed. I didnt like the hook too much tho'. sounded a bit too empty. I mean its message is good, but I dunno, I would've done it diferently.

The third verse was amazing :worship: I liked the breakdown at the begining. good as man :worship:

was it 4 verses?? or am I just going crazy :confusion:

nice one man
