Honestly, at this point in my personal life, I can connect to it a lot. Which is a good thing, means you did something right. Your rhyming, word choice and phrasing/thoughts are excellent.

I'd love to hear what you sound like now as opposed to when this was released. The only thing I'd love to see you expand on is flow/delivery. Those are the two hardest things IMO for rappers to develop/perfect (or at least, the majority of them). Writing (rhymes, wording, etc) is hard too, but I find that a lot of rappers can pick up on that very quickly. I have a hard time with perfecting my flow/delivery too, so I'm not trying to bash you. I just think once you perfect those you'll be all set.

One last criticism lol, sometimes at the end of bars, not sure if it's because you're out of breath, but you sort of trail off at times, like your voice shakes the slightest. It's not too big of a deal, but it is noticeable.

yeah I kno what you mean about trailing off I always notice that with my shit but tbh I don't know how to not do it. rly frustrating.

flow and delivery should be better on the stuff I've been working on recently. and by better I mean more polished, less flaws. i'm not rly experimenting much or trying to take risks in that department. focusing on lyricism more

That's great to hear. The problems I've noticed with me is my delivery is too whiny at times, and my flow slips a bit sometimes.

Once I get my mic, we should collab. I think we could pull off a dope song.

What is that sample, Horse? It was dope as fuck. The guitar, right?

yeah m8 i think i'm gonna take my mic to campus with me this semester so i should be able to record again

I also downloaded Gambit. I was talking to Eedee and he recommended it. I've been busy writing my own shit so I haven't had time to listen to the whole thing yet, but I was very impressed with the first two tracks. The beat sample on Hip Hop is amazing. I'd have never thought of using that song for a rap beat.

thx m8

the first song is probably one of my favorite songs of all time by me and the second I wrote on a dare when someone said I couldn't rhyme as much as eminem did in lose yourself. the whole tape tho is just a collection of songs written and recorded over like a 2 and a half year period so it's not very cohesive. and that was an old sinima beat from before he overloaded his shit with his voice. shit is awesome i agree

[Eedee]

I thought I could record on campus too, but they were little bitches and reported me for noise.

[classthe_king]
