posted Wednesday, June 06, 2012 6:03:57 PM ok paid more attention this time and caught the flip on piece of mind, likin that + the way you rhymed cruel pose and pujols sounded nice.
funny i was just thinking to myself earlier about a friend of mine that is like a wolf in sheeps clothes.
to the negative: "who act hard but turn up",,"sweeter than glucose..." it seemed like the pause in the middle was weird in this line at first but now it sounds fine to me. finish this shit for sure.

posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 11:34:30 AM dug i think you need to shine on more unique beats. not even saying anything specific here.
imo these types of beats end up lumping you/us into some other shit that isnt really that accurate of a depiction on your steez.
your flow and scheme should allow you to be more critical of your beat selection.
not that domini cant make beats, he just makes these beats a LOT. thats my 2.
i think the flow is fresh, and i know you can write, but i think you'd do better with some very critical beat selection.
thats coming from a beat weirdo tho.

posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 11:52:34 AM i hear what you're sayin liotta about the beats ...
i just need to feel more comfortable with my flow and cadence and i'll start expanding on the beats i use...
feel like i need to practice a lot before it sounds the way it does in my head on the actual track...
thx for the input

posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 10:13:25 PM Just didn't feel authentic to me. You have a good delivery but I'm not buying what you're saying. Still have cadence issues and you also draw out syllables like I do.
Nothing special though. If you were you wouldn't be posting here right?

posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 10:30:41 PM Are you trying to motivate me? The moment someone comes at me in audio then they open up inspiration. Plus flak needs to feel goo about something I mean he lives a pretty sheltered life..you seen his pics.
It makes me laugh though like everyone's hollering oh lethal he ethered you but the only people that got it right were coast and yoda. I'm proud that I hold a status like that though.

posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 10:39:44 PM For a rough draft it's got potential. Once you work the kinks and finalize the track it will be tight pending on the direction you take it.

posted Thursday, June 07, 2012 11:39:37 PM I would say not bad for a rough draft. I definitely think you can spit this better. I dislike the flow, if you held your breath when you spit I think you could smooth it out a lot or let it roll of your tongue. Pick where you take your breaths..it will help with your delivery. I see how you're doing it, not that it's not effective, but if you took out the breath before your pujos line you would have a very nice flow, it would almost sound like you "brought it back" if you know what I mean..
When you spit it next, try spitting from the back of your throat, record it. Than try spitting with your nose a lil, record it. Than try Beasting on the mic, record it, than sit for a lil and listen to all three and find what sound you think works best for you.
Even for a rough draft, there are some areas that could use refining.
But everyone has their own sound and own vision for their tracks..if this is it..hey..
Enjoy.

the easier it is to flow complex syllables over it...
