Open Mic: THE REBIRTH

Dope

Whoa,you guys really stamped Syns return here,and to be fair you all
came correct,

Ridley I liked your contents here,and the tempo was ripe,I thought
you brought a decent verse,and towards the end,the he way you handed
it over to Levy like you was passing him a pen to continue was a nice
touch,i liked it,good drop..

Levy,we still need to do a collab,I also liked this verse of yours
too,carrying on from Ridley and including some of your crews aliases
within the piece was cool,as with Ridley I also thought you had some
nice content,and your tempo and general feel was good,good work..

Ash as usual you came with some aggression which I like,it makes a
verse when in text have a soul so to speak,it's a raw emotion that
is often over looked,but adds to the content Overal,it gives a drop
meaning,and in a sense validates what your expressing,good work girl..

Bakardi,I must say I do like your in the face approach here,although
technically not the strongest verse ever,it still has a place within
this crew drop,now don't get me twisted,when I say technically,cuz
what it lacks in word choices it makes up for it in rawness,this was
a decent addition Overal,and your vocab does convey a message,(don't
fuck with us),i also liked this piece..

Big Game,i noticed your skill in your short time in AE,you seemed to
to complement Bakardi's and Ash's verse well,I also like the way you
hold on to a grudge,(Slip/Droid) and your tempo/contents was also on
the decent side of things,I like your tenacious spirt,good work..

Overal,this was impressive as crew drops go,I believe you all came
with the goods,and it shows the work Levy and Ridley have put in in
reviving this crew is remarkable,as this crew was truly at death door
a few months back,well done guys,and in Syns case,I guess your 2 ethics
paid off well,now reap the rewards..peace.

ridley squat,
your flow was dope whole way through.
Best takeaway
"So be expecting the mob hits, as we settle our conflicts
Defending our dogs with, the vengeance of John Wick"

levy420
nice job witht he mutlis throughout.
best take away
"a rhetorical question at least that's my synopsis
Verse lined with more force then atomic bomb hits
Bar god spit, hypnotic rise to top quick, obnoxious
kaos sykotic line up changed with a squad shift "

ashleykaos
good job with the different setsof multis going on at the same time. i would suggest trying to vary their placement instead of having each rhyme on the same exact part every line. Switch it up, make it different. goo job tho.

Bakardi
try to incorporate internal rhymes in your bars. Also, you end rhymes are slighly off to me. my last advice will be to try using more than one rhyme for a whole verse. I think you only rhymed one word and basically one word rhymes no multis.

big game
nice flow, nice multis, nice internals.
best take away
"Me n the crew chillin, smooth sailing, like we out on a battleship.
complacent, patient, waiting for a hatin assailant doubtin our craftsmanship."

over all order in regards to who i thoguht did best
bg
levy
ridley
ashley
bakardi

Coming down from the voyage to give my clan some food..

Nah, Big. I don't leave feed if I'm not on a PC. I like to take my time, have a nice layout and shit.

I'll feed this soon, though.

Dimley Thought:

Syn's back! From zygotic inception to iconic collection
Syn 'tax. With prose in flows too psychotic to mention
Synapse? All fire off to perfection with cyclonic aggression
Cos Syn didn't Nap ... just in cryonic suspension

this was a nice little stanza. dug the scheme. for shame no Sinbad lines tho. shame shame shame.


in the depths of a fortress, in leaden-lined boxes
labelled "God Help Us All If Ever Defrosted"
So be expecting the mob hits, as we settle our conflicts
Defending our dogs with, the vengeance of John Wick
Centred and spot-lit, as we enter the mosh pit
Turn the Pentagon Office to American Gothic
Every sentence that Squat spits', the essence of hot shit
And they never can stop this ... 4-20 you got this?

nice hand off. rhymes were onpoint. never seen John Wick but with the manner he is referenced im assuming Keanu goes all Liam Nelson. I thought the squat play coulda been tied together smoother. "even when a bitch cop a squat it's - ".. adds more bounce to the flow and gives a double entandre. but alas... you a beast with this shit. well done chap, pip pip


Levy9/11:

a rhetorical question at least that's my synopsis
Verse lined with more force then atomic bomb hits
Bar god spit, hypnotic rise to top quick, obnoxious
kaos sykotic line up changed with a squad shift

this was rhyme heavy for sure, but kept the content. nice opener.

Syn's back god's gift, 420 swift, riddles nauseous
Mob shit, Mc's get nibbled to bits, one flick of the wrist
This isn't a glitch, step up, figure we bitch
Beat you're ass with a switch, fast as lickety split
Snap stick figures or thick, behemoth's with wit's
Metaphorically sick, similes slick, like a Tarantino script

hrm. not sold on this last line. re-arranging would bring it out more. 'metaphorically sick, Tarantino Script like - the similes slick' and the line before, thick sticks? but I did like the barrage. was very rapid fire. felt the energy, can tell you meant the shit.

Syn city's reservoir dogs kick more ruthless hits then pulp fic
Bakardi n game in the click, fix ya lips or get ya repertoire ripped like bong hits
        ....CHRONIC...

excellent closer. the tie ins were well placed. good shit bro.


AshleyKrayons:

"BOW" Return of Syndicate to Vindicate our status of the Highest Placement
"POW" Verse Indicate's that Syn Droppin Sicknin' Set's the rest are just basic
Team Of Greatness Trumpin these Failures Like Campaign Mate's of Kasich
Might as well Say it, we Spit like Arson lines Blazin and no one can tame it

im not familiar with Kasich, but like Ridley, the manner in which you carry the bar explains it. I think if I have to google something, its already lost appeal..so good on you with writing that bar because even tho im unfamiliar I caught it. The Trump tie really helped me out a great deal. I liked the tame/fire play. was missing a "wild' reference tho to really get it going. but put together well none the less.


New Queen of LA Reppin' Syndicate like we were born with Parliamental Royalties
Squad's far from Ordinary Sewing Certain Defeat Into peasants with Embroidaries
Burned by Syn's Inferno wid Fire Bars Like Our Mouth's Vomiting Flame
Genocide of These Lames Committin Murder Like Waves of Bubonic Plague

another solid section of ties. the fire play lost appeal as you just ran with the scheme a few bars up. but I dug the last one.

We Go so Hard, no soft Roster still bustin out hits like Mike Bubble't
Best by Far, Smooth Talkers Running this shit so were always gettin paid
Killing Shit like this flow is Homicidal, Divine like reading the Bible
Chilling isnt it? Better Prey for survival cause we murder each rival

only advice I can offer, if you use a theme, try not to re-use. you did the murder with the plague. in such a short space, its very standout-ish. in a longer verse might not be as blatant. but you piece shit together real well.



Batari:

You better come correct, or better yet come with checks
Yall talkin bars Syn stay with them bayonets
Words cut deep, but we barely even break a sweat
you aint gonna make it very far deliverin all those vacant threats

probably the most straight forward of the bunch. I didnt get the correlation on 'talking bars' and 'bayonets' or 'very far' and 'vacant threats'.. 'we slay with a crazy set, syn cut records like bayonets' some sort of tie together. I do get that you keep a 'straight forward approach'..but I didnt see the unity.

super bad bitches make em quick to undress
we be pullin all the bitches that you tried to finesse
you tried to impress, with rhymin skills that you thought you posess
but it aint hard to tell that yall workin with less

this was cool. it all went together in a solid theme. not the most over the top shit, but it worked for sure.

we be workin the legs, got you by the toe while you was tryin to flex
rippin out your fucking heart for displaying your pecs
im done dealin with stress, I think I proved my point about who really is best
im done being angry for awhile, right now im just keepin it blessed.

well there you have it.


DIG CHANGE:

BIG GAME'S BACK!!! Now watch these lames yack, to me, they'll say "You illin!"
And aye it's true, cos Triz Tre's my dude, but BG's - LA's True Villain...
Me n the crew chillin, smooth sailing, like we out on a battleship.
complacent, patient, waiting for a hatin assailant doubtin our craftsmanship.

I liked this for an opener. the slant on the tandem 'out on a battleship/doutbin out craftsmanship' was cool. I like shit you dont typically see.

DEATH CAN HAPPEN QUICK! My whole squad's heavy hitters.
from Levy, Zin to, Crete to Rid ya, better STOP!! and go check the figures ...
It's like I'm ambidextrous, cos I'm, always right, yet the left'll split ya
Killa ... with the, hectic scriptures, which ah, summons death to get ya.
so never be a hoe like Droid and throw a fucken bitch fit.
Cos one attack from me and you could disappear like Slip did.

I liked the subtle transitions on the start of the stanza. it wasnt nothing where I was like whoaaa..but it was schemed well. I thought the nod to your current beef was a nice touch. shows that you arent just braggin' you bout dat action, jackson. the crew namedrops were a cool touch. definitely missing some tho.

dropped'm a simple diss and, no one seen him since then.
He acted Godly, tried to 'cross me', so I left and went direct to synnin'

liked the wordplay.

You chumps'r lost in hysteria, but if you lookin for war, I got you, You in my area
and you should beware of a, killa round here, said to dig up your dirt'n use it to bury ya.
Declarin a, war with Big, You got problems. I'm non stoppin. It's bombs droppin
And now that I'm on Lev n Squats squadron, y'all better fear Syn, like God's watchin.
mothafuckas

same thing with Ash.. a religion play that close together I dunno. but you kept a thorough scheme throughout. pretty much how a posse cut should be. flag wavin and war drums.

And big ups everyone for their comments.
Good stuff guys.

Ridley:  Opening 2 bars were a great way to open it up.  Vocab was on point and the flow was sick.  nice mix of the two.  Conflicts to mosh pits was pure flames.  I felt like it came so effortlessly.  thats how it read at least.  Also liked how you set up levy in ya final line.  that crew shit.
