Introduction - Sorry, I fucked up with that reverb haha my bad. I think your flow was pretty nice on both of these, but your second verse flow was very different than what you usually do.. good job with that

Wanna Be Your Lover - you got a nice flow on this, i didn't like the hook though haha. lyrics need to be upped man... work on that..

Breathe - Pronounciation needs work, it wasn't my favorite from you but it wasn't bad

Birth Of Solitude - I like this concept, it adds to the tape, good job on that. you need to work on ur lyrics and pronounciation but the rest was pretty good on this.. btw third verse is ur style, you should use it more often.

Drivin' Me Crazy - you have too many of these concepts, try something other than this.. hook was horrible. flow was pretty good as usual, lyrics need to step up. pronounciation was a bit better on this.

The Skit - Unnecessary but it kinda made sense for the next track.

Time To Shine - Mart, great great mixing and beat on this! I like this song the best yet.. real good job flow was good and you had decent lyrics.. My Element Is Hip Hop.. good on this one

How I Feel - great, you made an emotional track, you should do more of these.. this is my second fav behind time to shine.. do more like this man!

Click Clack - ehh stop with these concepts, but flow was cool on this

Rain - nice hook by big ax-d, it's a pretty good song overall!

Taking Over - sajjad completely killed this track but chris you did great for your second track ever

The CHIT - wasn't too bad but i didn't like it

Overall - Man this is a good mixtape, you've improved a lot, keep at it.. your last 2 songs [time to shine, how i feel] were real real real big improvement, keep at it and you'll be real good soon.. just work on these things: Delievery/Pronounciation, Lyrics, Concepts

Typing while listening:

Introduction:
Lyrics are pretty good at times, but your voice is kinda weak and not much emotion at times.

Wanna Be Your Lover:
Is this a looped chorus? :confusion:
Not bad, your voice sounds better than the intro.
Lyrics are okay, transition from verse to chorus isn't much good, i wasn't expecting the verse to end.
Bit short isn't it?
6/10

Breathe:
Again, your voice sounds too forced, you know like if you sing along to a loud angry song but not properly, it sounds like that.
Again, quite short, i found it hard to understand at times.
5/10

Birth Of Solitude:
Same as before.
I've noticed you don't use overlays on your choruses, or use seconds. Bad idea.
Voice on chorus sounds forced, verse is okay.
6/10

Drivin' Me Crazy:
Don't like this track.
Hook sounds way too different to your voice.
Your verses you sound bored in.
4/10

The Skit:
Reeks of "free sound effects found on the internet"
Could of added effects on your voice to make it sound like you're speaking to a crowd, but oh well.
6/10

Time to Shine:
Beat by Mart gives this track a high rating automatically because it's great.
Used overlay on this chorus, good.
Best song so far, you actually have emotion on your voice in this verse.
7/10

How I Feel:
Beat goes on for way too long at the start.
Vocals are a bit low.
Low voice suits the track/beat.
6/10

Click Clack:
Again, you sound like you're singing along to an angry song, not making one.
Beat's okay, i'm not much for that kind of stuff tbh.
Your voice sounds too bored on a track like this.
3/10

Rain (ft. Big Ax-D):
Ax makes this track.
Great hook from him.
Good beat.
Some emotion in this verse, not bad.
Ax's verse is great too. Unfortunately compared to Ax you sound really bored, being with him on the track further evidences it to the listener.
7/10

Taking Over (ft. Sajjad):
Like i've said i hate Sajjad
Good emotion in your verse here compared to the others, but still slightly lacking.
Again, Sajjad outshines you on the track both emotion wise and quality/effects wise with his verse. Some good punchlines from him.
Good hook from him too.
7/10 (Sajjad mainly got the track this rating)

The CHIT (Bonus Track):
What the hell was that at the start? :confusion:
Vocals are a bit low.
Emotion is okay, again you sound like you're singing along. But not bad.
Pretty average.
5/10

Overall: Not very good to be honest. On many tracks you sound bored and emotionless. It's obviously because you're just starting out rapping, so maybe it would of been a better idea to not bother making a mixtape until your skill has developed a bit more.
You had some good lyrics and beats, not a good idea using official beats, like i said i try not to use official beats on my mixtapes now.
Definately your features helped you get high marks on the tracks they were on, not surprisingly those were my 2 favourite tracks.
If i can give you my opinion on what to do, i would just keep making tracks and posting them. Once you get consecutive good feed and your skill has improved, then you should no doubt consider making a mixtape. But at this stage i think you shouldn't of.
Just being honest with this thing, no hate or anything.
I give it 6/10

DISCLAIMER: ALL JUST MY OPINION.

and I thought only I've the pronounciation problem

Well to be honest I was not able to understand most of the songs expect Time to Shine.

One thing I must say is that u should bring some power in ur vocals . In songs like click clack and drivin' me crazy u sounds like u don't want to rap .

only song I liked was time to shine
