Wow, thanks for all the great feedback everyone!
Ax you must be going crazy 'cause it's just 3 verses, although the hook plays out a few times towards the end which could explain why would might have thought it was 4, lol.

Thanks for the support everyone, things are really picking up down here!

Damn, nice ass beat.

Thought your voice/delivery sounded better than the last song I gave you feedback on. Like it.
The chorus is aiight, didn't catch me, but doesn't ruin it either.
I liked 2nd and 3rd verse better than 1st, but not sure which one of them I liked best.

Either way, I did like this song. Gives me a, like Xray said, summer feeling, especially now when it is snowing outside :shakehead:

This sounds really pro. I didnt really like the chorus that droning voice on verses and hook was too much for me. Lyrics were dope tho. 3rd verse was my favorite.

how you turning in something with tags to universal, come on?

anyways, this is one of those, it could have been a great song but it wasn't... I have an issue how you say shit like "my way" "side ways" "but you wont let me" "stress me" "pepsi" you kidding me bro? you're not gonna be takin seriously when you soundin like that.. quit it, you do it in a lot of ur song, it's just gay.

get angry again, midway thru second verse, and parts during the third verse, you had that raw delivery...moving on, flow was on point, i enjoyed the hook and thought the concept was definitely interesting

You sure seem "offended" by the way I rhyme, lol. If you think they're gonna take me as a joke from these lines you're mistaken because they've ALREADY heard my music (with songs like that track) and enjoyed it. I appreciate your honesty but just because you don't like something doesn't mean someone else doesn't.

Regardless, glad you found some parts enjoyable!

Of course I am offended, if Eminem dropped a track you didn't like, would you not be mad?

I want your energy back, you kinda lost it somewhere, you need it, you have it, but you do not utilize it. Do you see where I am coming from?

If not I'll show you..
http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=5346753
"so I lit that joint" "I did everything for you" "I got treated like dirt"
http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=5346719
"Judge Me" "You Better think again" "i'ma sick twisted kid, with a sick twisted head"

you hear the energy and that rawness? You need to incorporate that into your new music, because from a flow point of you, the new stuff is way better. Just put 'em together and you got the Steve Spag--that me, as a fan, would love to hear.

You really love those old tracks eh? Haha, well I'm glad some people still feel 'em! I shall take your advice and put it to practice the next time I hit the booth. I get what you're saying however, you really used a good-choice if words to get your point across!
:y:

Maybe I should lay-back on the pot? lmao
Nah in all seriousness that 1st studio I used to go to was sooooooo good that I literally had to put no effort in to sound aggressive, where as in this new studio the mic. quality isn't as good so I have to be more "forceful", which gets to my voice (from the pot), lol.

On to the next one....

Feeding as I'm listening..

The beat sounds nice. Flow sounds proper, seems not as smooth at some spots as it could be, but definitely good. Delivery is good, apart from the fact that it seemed like you forced your delivery, don't know, didn't sound really genuine to me. Could be partly due to the mixing, a bit mechanic. Lyrics are OK, nothing spectacular, message is good, though.

Overall, a pretty good song. Work on sounding genuine, try to convey more emotion with your delivery, and, perhaps, try to be a lil' more lyrical? Just some constructive criticism. Keep it up.

I enjoy those tracks, but from a technical point of view, they are not anything great.

Maybe I should lay-back on the pot? lmao


Maybe, I know it has definitely made me sound somewhat bored.

As a guy with a shitty $20 mic, I can definitely appreciate this. BUT even then you just are not putting in your energy. The Mic obviously plays a huge role in this, but its also obvious you have completely changed your style--and I'm saying its not for the better.
