I didn't expect it to be easy, but that's as hard as I've tried in any song, and it's not good? I don't know what to do...

Re-Lapse said:Nah, I just listened to your stuff. You're good, and know what you're talking about. But I'm not even kidding, I tried my hardest on that 2nd drop, and it's still not good? I dont' get it.. I dont' see what I'm doing wrong...I don't want to give up because I love music so much, but when someone of your status doesn't like my stuff it makes me feel like I might as well just drop the bomb and leave it to you people who know what you're doing.
I wish a vibe would just go through my body and I'd flow and feel good about it, and make a decent song. I don't want to torture you, but would you please click my Website link in my Sig. and click downloads, and tell me if you like _any_ of them on there? Seriously, if none of them are good, I have a _lot_ of work to do. Please, let me know.

You have potential, you just can't expect to become Eminem overnight. Matter of fact... download some old eminem stuff, and some old Pac stuff, and old Biggie stuff... WuTang, Rakim, A Tribe Called Quest... Study the greats, and take pieces from each of them. Don't bite them, just take elements of what you hear, and build your own style.
If it was as easy as your hoping it would be, all of us would be millionaires right now.
zed32 said:you are a lot better than the first thing you posted. keep making beats too, because the ones i heard you make were pretty good. i actually haven't had a chance to listen to your latest revision so i cant comment on it yet (i'm still at work), but nobody's trying to say its AWFUL or anything. it's always a work in progress, and if you like it, then there's a pretty good chance that someone else is gonna like it too. keep at it, keep making songs even if they're no good, just to have it under your belt you know? i'm sure eminem spent a lot of time i the studio working on songs that never saw the light of day, but you take some good things from every project that you undertake.

Re-Lapse, I'd listen to that one seriously. Take people who you listen to and then learn elements from them to incorporate your own sound. That's how I started honestly. You're more likely to find the best stuff IMO with older material. And keep in mind that there is a difference between using elements to craft and straight biting. We don't need to mention how many Pac biters still linger around in the industry and still get paid.

2nd- The phonish eq on your vox can grow boring after a while.
mrT said:Some pointers... Music, especially rap, is based on rhythm. As far as I can tell you can't rap on one. You need to rap WITH the beat rather than over top of the beat. Your rhymes don't really ryhme all that creatively... or well. i.e. town:around:frown, right:night, night:right(again)... Try using words that your average 6 year old couldn't put together. If you think this is good rap you need to seriously raise your standards or get ready for a lifetime of having your shit hated on. I'm not trying to be an asshole but you need to know the truth without the sugar coating.
The props... Keep trying. If you really love it you will no matter what people tell you. Don't give up. But PLEASE, think about what you are trying to say. And then say it in a way that makes it unique to your view on life. What you posted was straight up shit as far as content goes. It was neither unique or anything *I* couldn't have written (I am certainly no rapper either). I know you're just starting but now comes the time to step up your game or deal with reality.
And the best lesson ever... DON'T EAT YOUR OWN BULLSHIT!!! be objective
Sorry I had to be THAT asshole. No disrespect meant. Just trying to keep you real.![]()
