^Thanks for the tips bro, I would rather spend my time reading stuff like that rather than people telling me I suck or I should never rap (Im not talkin bout anybody here, just sayin in general) I would rather have them tell me how to improve instead of bashing me for my mistakes. Thnx again.

on with that side note...
here bones, ill tell you wusup patna'
i like your creativity, delivery was cool, it lacked here and there, but it was there, dont be so monotoned, dont go through your whole 16, or 3 verses doin the same tone, the effects are what saved you on your hooks, change up the rhyme scheme a little bit, the structure and delivery itself seemed to be way too similar, i still liked em' though, just a suggestion.. your metas were nice but seemed dull at times. if you ask me, its always better to skip out on the metaphors at times, and stick with some nice multies or simple wordplay rather than dish out dull ones, feel me? what i also noticed was that you fell off beat more than once on each track, why? i think i know, its your bar structure pimpin, you lack a syllable or two here and there, and your a syllable or two over at times, so make sure when you write, your bar structure is balanced all throughout your 16's, from top to bottom.. thats where your flow builds up, if you misplace one bar the rest of your tower will come out crooked, feel me? originality is present, which makes it easier and in a way more interesting to listen to, compared to all that shit little kids put out these days about being mob affiliated and moving weight ..
i know it seems im bashing on you but nah, i did it because it seems you'll take it the right way, since all you got was "nice, sick, cool" and shit, i thought i would listen to a song or two and give you something that would help, hopefully....... be easy. |
And I don't think so much that im monotoned, the mic i have is a pretty decent mic, but it doesnt pick up everything, if you were standing next to me, im pretty much yelling, but when i play the song it sounds like im just talking lol you know? I know down the stretch ill get an even better mic, but ima work with this one for now

Bones... you want to know a big tip? Something that most people overlook these days... and quite possibly the biggest reason why Armenian rappers specifically, for the most part, suck?
They don't study.
Study Hip-Hop. The reason I even started writing lyrics all came from albums like Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt, Paid In Full, It Takes A Nation..., etc. etc.
Listen. Study. Take Notes.
Trust me... it's one of the best tips any one can give you. Don't just sit there and think 'hey.. I can rhyme these words together, flow pretty nice, and have a good beat'. No.. it takes more than that. You gotta know how it's done... and done right from the get-go to really spit that A game.
That's key... listen to old cats and even cats now that spit that real, pure, unfiltered Hip-Hop. I listen to mainstream as well so I'm not trying to be a hypocrite... but take a break once in a while and you'd be amazed how a man's mind can generate such ill rhymes.
I can hook you up with some albums if you're interested to start somewhere.

^I know what you mean bro, that's mostly what I listen to. I got a lot of old school joints and I enjoy the underground cats today. I ain't gonna learn shiit from Soulja Boy. I understand he's making bank, but his music doesn't resemble the true definition of hip hop. Nas, Canibus, Sly Boogy, Ras Kass, Kool G Rap, Tupac, and some other underground artists are pretty much what I listen to.

Word... I gotta work on flow, breathe control, syllable counts and everything first....

I think you got talent and potential, kid -- I just think you need to grow into it  I follow your freestyle on vardan's site too; I like your rhymes  ..... I loved One Nation: it came together well.... imma use it in my groups this school year. I also loved the message and that it had a message! Focus your writing in that direction; good hip hop is about storytelling. Tell the stories you know -- I'm still looking for an armo rapper to tell the armo kids' stories from the 'hood - stories about fitting in (or not), loss, depression, abuse, drugs, etc etc. Tell it like you see it; your rhymes can be very insightful when you're in the mood . Part of what I love about R-Mean is that he tells stories, but we still need someone to tell the armo stories..... you with me? Oh, and use the melodic tunes more--they go well with your voice.... peace... TherapistChick
