[[E7] Big L Tribute]

When you spit fast--

It gets too dirty, it's a bit unclear but you almost got that shit down. that's too tight man. Love this verse.

"They heard it they love it, I'm not gonna stop,
Can't hit me with bubble gum shots,
Subtle but hot, they tried holding me down on the mic but I rip through the muzzles and knots." that was my favourite part.

And that outro, oooh baby. Keep it up man

GloineFiodh responds:

word up. ya this was the first time I tried to spit that quick and its a pain in the dick to get that syllable count down.

[FF | Listen]

Mmmmmmmmmmmm

Oh dude, right when it started I felt too groovy,
then that sax came in-- and I just sank so low all comfy like daaammmnnn.
You're settin the mood for real. I may make some sensual love with this song tonight. ;D

freddyfinger responds:

lol thanks (tip: she likes it when you tickle her ear lobe)

[Intro to Swaggaflo Mixtape]

This is a great intro

The voice samples work perfectly with the title, and it's in time with the beat too. Too sick.

I like how the lyrics work as an introductory too.

BrothaGaget responds:

Thank you

[FF | Dirty]

Dirty--

is right! too sick. I like the mood you set. You always throw in that little eery feel, it's killer. The change up at 1:16, simple, but fits in quite nicely.

Some hip hop tracks you hear and can tell right away if you attempt to take the pen to it-- it'll just be garbage. But to this, I feel as if I can get some real deep shit goin. So, thankyou for this! Influential.

freddyfinger responds:

thanks a lot chista. 1:16 i originally had something a little more added to it than thought it might be better to just make it simple.

[Under appreciated (RnB)]

Amazing

The chorus is too catchy. I agree with needing to perfect the verse vocals tho. But I know how much of a bitch it is to redo shit, especially da floowww; ya' know?

Good stuff man, keep it up. Time to checkout your other tracks.

Hyper-Shadow-Death responds:

A chorus can never be too catchy. Yea its a bitch to redo the vocals when you spit the same lines over a thousand times but thats how you make good music ;) Flow was actually easy to keep in this track it was the tone that was the biggie. Thanks for the review.

[Freedom {durn}]

definitely feeling this.

My dad passed away this December too, so I can definitely feel where you're going with this.
My favourite part has to be where it kicks it real low at 00:47, and the melody just turns so sick at 1:16 - love that.

The 9 is for those distorted guitar chords-- they just threw me off at first, however when it breaks after that clap it worked out nicely ;) Keep doing whatcha do!

durn responds:

:) Thanks Christa. Glad it all struck a chord. ;) -totally- pun intended! oh, oh, I slay myself. :d hmm.. on second thought, that's not that funny. :P which is why I stick to music and not comedy. :)

my condolences on your loss, man.

[Recolonization]

This is so legit!

The nine, however, is for 1:34-- i don't know what it is, it's like a little break? Something felt taken away from this beautiful art. GET IT BACK AND THE 10 IS YOURS.

Though, I'll still vote 5. Good work.

cakeofbeef responds:

Yeah, I wasn't too sure about that part. Originally I had a bigger percussion sequence right there, but it felt like that would just blast the listener through the entire song and it didn't return to the main "chorus" very well...
I can live with a 9 :)
Thanks for the review!

[Break Fast Serial]

Legit

You got the flow; it didn't feel irregular once. But on a professional outlook, maybe turn the vocals up a bit. Good job, keep it up.

LyRikLyNkLyNd responds:

Yea I've been workin on mixing much this past few weeks, Thanx for the advice and the review.

[My Lady ft.Alphabits by Brotha]

You got the flow

But you just gotta turn it up a little more mah dude. I'm thinking the verses need to be turned up a notch, and the singing might need to be double layered (only in the middle part tho). That or the bass might be a tad too loud. I dunno, somethings just drowning your vocals out sometimes. But keep doing what you do! I'm gonna go checkout your other stuff now-- brb.

BrothaGaget responds:

Thanks for the input

[HW - PJ - Hot Chocolate]

I'm really liking this.

Love those horns, and that tick and tack-- sometimes that piano feels like It's lost a part of itself, and it's trying to refill the hollow.
The vibe I'm getting is that maybe everything isn't as full as it'd like to be.
It's amazing. favourited.

haywirehaywire responds:

thanks a lot
