Too much cliché hip hop lingo.

Forgot :zipped:

okay

I love how unique your style is but sometimes it seems like you rush through a piece, your emotional stuff is your niche, I'd just like to see you tighten up your rhyming and multies :y:

Word man. You're damn accurate. I ALWAYS rush my pieces. They're ALWAYS like, maximum half an hour works. :sweating:

I always write my pieces in my blog posts. So, it's usually because I wanna post it up quick, that's why it's quick.

Alright man, I gotcha man. Yeah, I'll do better. :flower:

Thanks. :)

I've been trying to think of one for awhile and its been pretty hard tbh. Somethings i can think of is you are really inconsistent with your multis. Some pieces they sound amazing and go together really well and some pieces your just sayin shit to rhyme and it makes the flow horrible.
You think your personal attacks make up for what you lack?

Yeah I agree with class. Sometimes your multis are too inconsistent. But it's not super noticiable. You have found your writing style obviously now you just gotta work out the kinks and run with that shit Col :y:

You should definitely write to beats more often, your pieces will look better. Besides having a better flow, a beat can give you certain inspiration you need to think of concepts, phrasing or the way you place your words in a verse.

But that's just some advice, not a weakness. I would say your weakness is your usage of words, you need to learn how to use your vocab properly. Because your vocab is great, if used right it can be a forté that'll put you above a lot of writers. And use more wordplay, but that's just something I want you to do, lol, but if a lot of wordplay doesn't suit your style then you shouldn't use it.

That's it I guess, you're an amazing lyricist imo, I just feel like you could utilize your vocab better.

That steady click of 4 in your head that seems to go on forever... that's the only beat you need to write to.

I said that 'cause Coleon is actually thinking about recording his verses. And in order to do that, he needs to write to beats.

If it's poetry, I fully agree with you.

I would say for you just make it rhyme more, you have all the content in the world just lace it with more rhymes

When are we gonna hear a Cole song then? :o

I agree with you, I don't use that much mutlies, it's not that I can't, I mean my older peices were laced with multies, but I don't like to force rhymes. But being able to use good rhymes with a good content is what we all strive for, so yeah, I need to work on that.

I feel ya, pause. I would advice you to start recording random sixteens to practice/expirement with your flow and delivery though... Won't take that much to record a 16..

your flow is kind of off to me in a lot of peices, you use a nice rage of vocab but i feel that maybe you try to use large words and it throws off the flow for me

how bout me?
