I recorded this in a professional studio and had my producer Chiefen Ethan edit my vocals. He didn't make the beat so he couldn't mix and master the audio. Let me know what you think of it.

Yeah this was decent in vocab and wordplay,but your flow/mic presence was
suspect,it sounded like you was reading the verse whilst recording it,and for me it was noticeable,(not that i Rap myself let me just add here),and i also feel Neek,Doom,Elite,or Puente could expand better than i can on that,i will type though,overall i did like it for its gritty-ness,just work on your delivery..peace. |

That's probably because I was reading my verse while recording. I write 2-3 songs in a few days and record in the same week so I don't have time to memorize every bar on each song so I end up reading it while spitting my verses.
What do you mean by mic presence? I keep hearing this and I just Google it but I couldn't find anything useful so maybe you could explain it to me. |

I'd work on your writing before you devote any serious time or money on the audio side of things. At this point, its like your talking for the sake of talking when it comes to your content. Imagine rapping with people talking, be more like someone given a well prepared speech than someone saying random as fuck all over the place shit, if you know what I mean. Don't start writing until you have something to write about. Random references like the scorpion shit early on detract anything you've built. Cliche stuff like puffing the bong all night long made me turn the song off. Most of the things I disliked about this would be remedied by starting off with a concept instead of writing down the first rhymes that come into your head. Be more picky with what you say.
Stick with it, take criticisms to heart but don't get too offended and you'll see improvement

As i stated it was noticeable, And as for mic presence i'm talking about pitch/tone,in parts you sounded shaky when upping and lowering the tone to get into character/switching up of your voice,it sounded forced due to some slight pauses in the process,(i hope that helps explain things a bit better)..peace. |
