This is a song that i made in late 2004. I was kinda off beat on this song I've been told. I was given this beat by Crookid from Western Conference Entertainment, a now defunct underground Bay Area record label. This was one of his first beats that he made and he didn't like it and didn't think anyone would buy it so he gave it to me for free. Well, kinda. I had to battle rap him for it. Since I can't freestyle anymore I lost the battle but I still got the beat. The beat ain't all that but I still liked it. Plus it was free! I tried to give it an Illmatic Nas/Gangstarr/Tribe Called Quest type of feel. Out of all of my early songs I like the lyrical content in this one the most. It has no cussin or use of the n-word in it, but is still lyrically superior to all my 2004-2003 songs

  • @jonez19 better than that bitch gayass lil wanye

  • the lyrics are alright.

    BUT GOD CHANGE THE BEAT MAN.

    and you need a faster beat cause you cant flow to this slow beat so try to speed up your beats.

    and if you have a slow beat try to put as little words in a bar as possible because if you dont do that then the whole song will flop.

    thankyou for sending me the link to your song, i will definetly keep my eye on you.

see all

  • Not bad. I would maybe add a little something to the hook/chorus. One thing I hate in hip-hop today is repetitiveness. I don't hate your song though bro. If you were selling millions with that hook, I might hate it a little bit. I like your E-40ish flow. I understand your style, so I know you weren't off beat very much, but there were parts that sounded like you slipped a little bit. Still good work man. Never give up.

  • Tight lyrics, and the bells and horns are tight. I'm no expert but have listened to hip hop since 1991 ; I give it a 9/10

  • Nice lyrics, but the beat aint saying nothing :)

  • Sounds like there is potential there...less words would be more if you get what I mean, give the beat a chance to come thru and weave vocals in and out of the beat etc....big up to you though for the positive vibe...and for going against the 'low vibrational' hip-hop that has flooded the scene. Keep on going...and thanks for the heads up. :-)

  • You Listen to alot of Aceyalone don't You ? haha Keep Up the Work Hope to Hear More Originality is the Key all love

  • yeah, you could've changed the beat where your voice syncs with the beats. regardless, good rap bro.
