I'll let someone else reply since you don't take my word for it!

:rolleyes:
 
aight dude...

You must've wrtiten this before tracking..

Dude!!


Freestyle or something.. You gotta loosen up... don't let your flow be dominated by the tempo... You gotta coax the listener into your creative interpretation of the beat... Instead you are being governed by the obvious steady, structured, unswinging, and unhip beat...

Listen to Jay-Z's.....Vol. 2 - Hard Knock Life Album... Track 5.. yeeeeah!

p.s. you ain't ready for Jaz-O's part...

Damn I wish someone explained it to me like that before...I just rerecorded and it sounds better already...WAY better.

And no one said anything about 2pac.
 
No, I'm serious. I'm not gonna re-up it though cuz I'm still getting used to it.
 
that's what we've been saying, if a rapper can't freestyle then he isn't going to be able to write verses. Once you can freestyle for like at least 5 minutes at a time then you'll be at a point where you probably have good enough control over your flow to be able to make write things that sound decent over the beat. So that every line doesn't sound the same as the last.


p.s. multisyllabic rhyming
 
Listen to other rappers, well not all of them, but many of them for the most part. I mean from mainstream to underground, from near and afar.........In this era, dating back 25 years or so, that whodini/Run DMC in the pocket rhyming went away, POOF!!!!!!Then there came a new terminology, referring to one's delivery, called "My Flow"........That is what pro404 is referring to as multi-syllabic rhyming....
In all of you verses, you sound very tense and particularly adament about making your words fit, and ensuring that it rhymes......That a very old school way of rapping, prehistoric to say the least. It is sort of like a person who can't dance, because their rhythm is challenged. Every move is abrupt and over accented, in order to keep you in rhythm to get through the whole song. Versus some people can, without thinking, automatically get in a groove and mix up steps and stay on beat without effort, it's natural.
I compare it to a metronome. It's like hearing it throughtout a whole song ticking in the background.... You use it initially to keep your instrument on beat, after a bar or two, you shut it off and just flow..............Kind of hard for me to explain, I wish I could say it..............
 
There is one thing I gotta ask to keep me from going insane...am I actually on track to getting better? I mean I know people suck at anything when they first start...but I know a lot of people that have done things for a while that continually suck at them. How good were you guys when you started?
 
I don't think you're terrible..........:confused:

I have heard worst!

My thing is, like I mentioned in the other thread, you need to fit into the game where you are needed. This may not be your calling duke!

I mean, to spit for sh*ts n g*ggles is one thing. But to have rather impaired rapping ability, the criticism is gonna come. (Especially when your asking for feed!)

I can't knock you for trying, but I don't think you're cut out to be a rapper. PERIOD!!!

But keep at it, I guess. Nothing beats a failure but a try!
 
i mean it definitely isn't as shitty as the first track you put up. You seem to know more about staying on beat but you have the same style as when you started, and it basically doesn't work. If you want to make real progress you should probably stop and put the microphone down for a minute and stop writing verses. Just start listening to beats and trying to rap for as long as you can. You need it make it to where rapping is a more natural thing for you to do.

Its hard but its one of those things that you just have to keep trying. Listen to instrumental tape in your car or something like dj premier beats and freestyle everytime you're by yourself. You are only slowly making progress with your songs now because you aren't really at the point yet where you are comfortable enough actually rapping to be able to write good song lyrics.
 
Where'd the old one go?

Can't compare side by side without it...
