Book or demo?

Postby Yah-hah » Dec 29th, '09, 13:32

I originally wanted to put out a book of poetry. I've been finished for some time now and now I'm pretty confused on wat im gonna do. I have over 50 full blown 3 verse plus chorus songs that I've written. These are the things I didnt plan on writing lol. But I took my stuff tto the publisher and she said I should go to a poetry thing to get some credibility ya know. This old hag lady completely RIPPED MY ASS! and went on and on about how I'm destroying everything thats sacred about peotry with the rhyming and everything. It was even a good, no cussing song lol. Just starting to think maybe this isnt the route to go anymore, don't think people will respond well if I use this path. Been thinking about recording and going that route idk though any thought?

I'd suggest writing some shit acapella, playing it back to yourself for a while, and see what you personally feel about it. :)

Yeah like I can do both and prolly will. But right now I'm kinda leaning towards demo. I care about people's opinions but just not enough to sway my decision. I really think my rap skill are getting crazy good. so I'm kinda leaning that way

Go for the demo man! I think your raps are better than your poems. You can always do the book later! :flower:
