This is not a genre I can comment on with authority, and you might get a better response in the DJ & HipHop forum.

However, it sounded fine to me . . . I think you have done a fine job here. There is a lot of interest and skilful use of sounds and textures. The recording is pretty good if it is your first attempt at home. There is a good musical brain behind this.

Did you track this one at home as well as mixdown at home? Or is it the mixdown only that you did at home?

Sounds good. You have Eminem samples I think. But, they are mixed well. The instruments sit well for me.
Just the introduction vocal I think is a little too loud and dominant. Can reduce it 6db.

Needs lyrics after 2 minutes. I wonder what happened to rest of the song ...
Basically sounds alright. I think you are worried the home mixed version doesn't stack up against your studio produced songs?

Maybe it could be better. The studio does put in a lot of fullness.
Your Art of War and Cry have a lot of fullness.

I am worried that your use of 'ni....ers' is not really you. You are Puerto Rican, Dude, not African!

Never Be is a neat song. I like that more than Street Wise.
Thru n Thru fem. vocal sample is cute. And main vocals are strong.
Art of War and Cry: Excellently presented.
