Lol I just got home. I'll feed this piece nao.

EDIT: I don't wanna go with the typical "oh this piece was ill - here are the best lines blah blah blah" bullshit, so I'll just ask the simplest question. Was this aimed at someone? The line "who happen to bitch when gi-ven feed" or something like that (I'm paraphrasing) gives me a clue that you might be talking to someone, or a group of peeps. Overall, it was really stellar. The rapping was great, and the flow kept me hooked. It was a nice team effort, and I'm looking forward to more drops from "Ego".

Oh well, that's all for now. I might return more feed later, if I'm not tired. :coffee:

Tried it with the beat a few times haha, that shit is almost impossible to decipher all at once. Anyway....

Good shit as usual guys. It's nice to see you do something different, it's basically back and forth which is something I've been wanting to see from you guys. I read it a couple times before the beat, and it gave me a 'Welcome to Hell' feel, so it was kind of cool to check the beat and see that it was Fast Lane.

Crackin' the whip on the backs of you wimps
Who happen to bitch when actually giv
-en feedback on the shit
Don't be sad just be glad to have a critic


Shots fired! Haha, but this was my favorite set of bars out of Alieus' first bars. The rhyme scheme here is pretty cool, but it's even cooler that the message gets across. The last line in particular really hits hard, I liked that. Honestly, a lot of parts from this piece give me a battle rap impression, but maybe it's me being paranoid about the tournament coming up. :whistle: Another part that I was really impressed with was how you used very similar sounding words to rhyme. That's phrased wierdly haha, but what I mean is how you did the "deaftones/dead tones", and "pen is tense/pen intence/penitence" thing. That's just one of the little things that make it really cool to rap to yourself.

Then Geno comes in and switches it up. I've seen the passifict punch a few times on this site, so when I saw it here, it didn't really hit too hard. To be more specific, I think it was a Spyder piece. But it's no biggie, so yeah.

Your raps be known for passive tones but pass as dope 'cause faggots post,
I've had it though, so that's the show, fantastic? No, no back and forth,
I've just about gotten to the point where I oughta go and get my massive rope,
Straight tie you up with lines we sung to find the touch that ties the tongue,
The rhyme scheme's rough but I'll be tough and pry your lungs while eyes just flood,


More shots fired. I'm sort of intrigued to see who it is you guys are talking about, but really not that many people are regularly posting in the C.W. anymore. Anyways, the rhyme scheme in the first two lines of these bars is incredible. It's straight rhyme after rhyme after rhyme and so on. How you switch from one scheme to the other is so smooth man. And then it's back to the usual, rhyme after rhyme after rhyme. I gotta hand it to you guys, in general this track never slips with it's top notch lyricism. For how long it goes, that's really impressive.

To the sickest of halves? I'm livin this timid,
Yet sinister track, intimate with it but kissin no ass
Equipped with this wit to deliver the jab
And spit shit quickest, I'm givin' it back
I slither in grass to slip and attack,
So vicious I'm mad I'll belittle your act,
I'll whisper, in fact the crickets the back,
We're kickin' it fast, you listen and crash


Without highlighting names, you'd think this is seriously just one person. It's really great how well you flow together, it makes the transition from verse to verse seamless.The thing that's really impressive is the many switches at the end. That's what reminded me most of Welcome to Hell. It's like you guys can just switch it up at any point and the other could continue the line of thought.

To settle insult to injury with pinched up salt in injuries
If this is enough then listen please-you finna be dumped in river streams
It's a fisher's dream, why you missin' sleep? These are words of death, I kissed the sheep,
Fiscal? Please, "no Christian!" (peace), I'll sick you freaks while my sickle reaps,


The transition is again smooth between the two, and you just keep the scheme going. Geno really impresses me again with the rhyme after rhyme after rhyme shit man. Like, it never slips at all.

No doubt I’m a pompous fighter, go down just to stomp your lights out
Ghost towns when we drop the fire, FEE FI FO FUM walk with giants


This part stuck out to me reading it the first time, without a beat. The flow is perfect, and you continue Geno's rhyme scheme well. The Fee Fi Fo Fum part may be the reason it stuck with me, but for some reason, this line just stayed in my head the first time I read it.

The weather shifted to simmerin’ summer blisterin’ shivers
Yo’ blunder is pissin’ the britches off the carnivorous wizards
That offer infinite disses leavin’ jaws unhinged and disfigured
And if it isn’t clearer, we lynch your career in half a second
As a matter of fact that last contestant to act aggressive
Was slapped and smacked and ass molested
Spat at and stabbed in the fat ass lips
With a hackin’ axe and casted as an accident


My favorite indivifual part from the entire piece. The flow and scheme in the first bar is ridiculous. Like, I don't even know what to honestly say about that. It's just one of those things where I saw it and was instantly surprised at how well worded it is.

You should go and apply at a post office so now you can just get the mail,
You settin' us off was a bigger fail than a 9.0 on the Richter Scale,
Why, I know I’m the sicker male, so beside my throne is a fricken pail
Cuz I might throw up ya little fishes scale, so guys cry wolf, you better bail
No time for a hook, don’t let it trail, Five dollar footlong? Man I’m there


Again, you guys go back and forth like it's nothing. I actually really liked the Richter Scale line haha, as well as the five dollar footlong. You guys are one of the most complete lyricists that still post pieces here, so this type of track is something that people should really be looking for.

All in all, really nice piece guys. I tried to give as much feed as possible, I can only imagine how much time it must've taken to really get this perfect, so I figured it deserved some proper feed. Anyway, good shit. Now it's time to focus on this battle tournament. :y:
You'd be surprised...

Geno wrote:As for people saying I bit / reused a popular line in "pass a fist / pacifist", I honestly have never seen it used. I don't think I've ever listened to Mac Lethal either. It was kind of similar to what Menzo was doing with his is "pen is tense" wordplay.

Fuck, I'm about two days late... Sorry, lol. Anyway, I can't even feed since everything I wanted to say has been said. I really liked this, it was crazy, and you both are on the same wavelength, so awesome chemistry. Nice disses lmao and keep it up! (Btw... Pen is tense is dope, I can think of so many things to use that with. :laughing:)

i did read the shit, so to stop your crying, and pretending you know what i did or didn't do, here you go:

you can obviously rhyme well, multies
my personal opinion tho, i hate you used doe, instead of though, i didn't like the vulgar language, it dumbs down your skill. your attitude is ugly, and like i said it's a bunch of babbling back and forth, it's a long read, i hate blue and red (jk) i just don't like reading about stupid shit, it was somewhat creative, wear your 6 with pride
your multies are good man, just some words i wouldn't use in this, it seems to ruin the beauty of rhyme, and sometimes you use the word more than once and i hate that shit, that's why.
oh yeah... and thanks for nothing too

I've used a pass a fist line on this site but the meaning is different, Spyder has used one too so it's far to say it's a common thought that people use? Haha, damn this thing is so long.

Geno wrote:I've honestly never heard it used (not saying I think it's incredibly original and I created it, but I used it first to my knowledge) and it just came to me because it went with the rhyme scheme.

If I had've known people would get so flustered over it I would've wrote something else.


Haha, I'm not flustered I'm just pointing out that it's a common thought. Truly, when I wrote it sometime back I didn't realize Spyder and other rappers have used it before myself. It was kinda a depletion of hydrogen from the ballon that represents my ego. Don't let it get to Geno, it's just one line.

I will, I only commented on it cause I taught it was kinda cool how so many rappers approached this type of line and taught nearly the same thing, it's just amazing don't ya think? Maybe people's minds aren't so different after all from one another.
