Same rule as always give a brief review/summary of the previous track that was posted. If you don't do so your post will be deleted.

Here was the last track posted from last years thread.

    Starting '17 off right, I like the confidence displayed on this one. The second verse I liked specifically talking about the N-words usage so commonly these days. The flow got a lil' stagnant in some part but this reminds of me those mixtape joints cats would drop to build anticipation for future ? , gonna check for u.

    This is my boy Hannibal King's new single featuring myself & Code Red from CT. Hannibal has produced for Mac Miller, Joey Bada$$ & CJ Fly so check him (as well as the rest of us) out if you like what you hear.

    I ? with that Still the Man song. Cigarello, I really like the laid back production with piano. That's my type of ? . I liked both MCs on the song. I didn't know which one was you but they both had good styles and plenty confidence. Nice job!

    I actually just released the first single from my debut album, The Gemimac Show. The song is called Big Profit$ and it features Adam Vida. this is the first time that I'm selling my music digitally. Should be an interesting day.

    Your energy is on the right track here, voice sounds cool with the beat. Very old school ish sound but still cool. Only critique would be get rid of the adlibs at the start, but this is cool. You should do cyphers if you don't already. dope. I can post your ? on Octomusic if you want.

    I just dropped this. feedback would be much appreciated.
    It's meant to be played as a narrative/made for cassette sound.

    @LOLCL The intro song is cool. On the first song I like your flow and the atmospheric sound on the beat. Your voice sounds like Caskey, do you know that? lol And it's a compliment because I really like this guy. On the second track around 4:30 the guitar melody is really dope. Overall it's a nice work but I think you still can improve the mixing quality of the vocal ;)

    Here is my song, it's a FREE BEAT. You all can use it. The download link is in the desciption of the video ;)

    just cause no one's posting i'm gonna keep it going - I liked this. I think the bass could've hit a little harder though, definitely gonna check out a few more of your beats.

    I like the beat smooth melody. I like your flow throughout the track I thought it would've been better with a lil' more enthusiasm but besides that this is a smooth cut.

    You flipped it decent. Thought it would've been better with 2 verse tho. Here is a track I recently posted. Sample has not been cleared so that's why it's only on SoundCloud. I call it Oh Baby

    Bro I was really feeling your verse, dope 16. The visuals were nice too, where did you guys shoot this? Your boy was straight didn't catch my attention the way your verse did, but I can see him connecting with today's listeners who like energy & swagger which he did bring on this one.

    Ok so since it's been a drought in here I figured I'd drop something I released a while back to get some conversation started again. I just threw this up on YouTube few weeks back in memory of Sonny Liston former heavyweight champ of the world. The song is about bouncing back & not letting your shortcomings or failures define who you are, let me know what you think....

    I like it man, correct me if I'm wrong but your flow or delivery sounds GZA/Jay Electronica-influenced, or perhaps just Wu-Tang in general. Gave me that type of feel. Depending on what you're trying to do, if you wanna know what you can do to improve... I wouldn't say there's anything to improve per-say, but what I can say is this:

    I'm not bothered by the production, because of the music I grew up listening to. However, in terms of from the perspective of the average listener that exist in today's climate, I would say to rap over production that comes from today's climate. There are tons of producers too that do all types of lanes of hip-hop who you can collaborate with, and lay your narratives over their production.

    Again, it all depends on what you're trying to do. If you don't care for the music climate of today, nor to apease to the average listener, then it shouldn't matter.


    Here's a music video intended to look like a free-run video game, you know when they have those gaming competitions where you try to beat the game as fast as possible, and the best are the ones who take 0 damage and beat the opponents the fastest by already knowing the strategies... The song 'No Jumper' is about opponents' shots not hitting, and thus bricking. Entendres within guns, basketball, shots of liquor, etc.
