I think you need to either find some dedicated producer or work on the instrumental part of the song. Also, with those lyrics, I think your style needs to be big in-your-face style, so if you could make your vocals more "dirty"-sounding it would be great. If your voice was a guitar i'd tell you to play electric for this song. Overall, you have the foundation and that is so much better than the flashy kids who only have the execution. | ||

Voice is the trickiest one. To me, your voice doesn't radiate with that charisma that all emcees must possess. In my eyes, you could never rock a crowd sounding like that. And maybe that's not a goal of yours or anything, but I don't even feel comfortable grooving out to this song as is. What I did was record myself speaking with different voices until they became more natural. This was necessary for my daily life because I used to use a whiny bitch voice often. Delivery's related. Practice practice practice. Never sound like you're stumbling over your words. Try rapping as fast as you can, try shouting your rhymes, try crying them out, try sprinkling in various amounts of emotion. You're a bit monotonous as is. Cadence is more with your writing. Right now everything seems so linear and even (boring). You shouldn't be chasing the beat, you should be riding it and chopping it up. Have any rappers you like? They probably mix it up too. I listen to cats from project blowed anytime I notice myself sounding stale. I end up biting but whatever ;/ Try writing for a lower tempo? Lyrically you're alright. I generally prefer rap that's less full-sentence-y and more poetry-y, but if this is your style then keep at it. Some lines like 'It's time to die bitch!' seem out of place. Wordplay please though! And no joke, I hear the closet's a great place to record if you have a shitty setup.

I'm not rapping, I'm just passing the time between being alive and winding up inside of the ground with a smile on my face and the crown on the place where it belongs on top of my head. Yeah, when I said forever., I even meant when I'm dead. Hwaiting! | ||

As for as the lines themselves, they're pretty good. I kind of wish you'd include more polysyllabic and internal rhymes. What are some of your influences? | ||
