Now before some of you get all hyped up and start going crazy "oh great, another Armenian rapper", let me tell you that Im not on the mic rappin about jewelery and money or whatever, and most importantly I don't rap with an accent (THANK GOD!). Some of you may have checkd out some of my freestyle posts in the FreeStyle Thread, and I decided to record some songs, so give it a listen.

oh for sure thnx bro, Im lookin forward to hearin your rhymes to, if you record em that is lol
I got the Samson C01U USB Condenser, it plugs right into your USB so you can record on PC or laptop and even Mac, and it's pretty good quality. The mic itself cost around 80-90 dollars, but I got the mic, the stand, and the pop filter all together for around 130 (shipping and handling included) from the site I ordered from.

Cool stuff, hopefully it's just a hobby
Anyways, rap's been played out in my book for a while now. The older I get the more I see how repetitive rap really is. Bleh.

All I know is music is a gamble. You have the same chance of getting a major record deal as you do winning the lottery. Look at R-Mean, that guy's been rapping for a while now and what's the most he's done? Few high school concerts....bleh
Millions of MySpace rappers out there....but either way, good luck, not trying to break your spirit.

I think R-mean is tryna keep it underground, I mean you don't necessarily have to go big for you to be known and make money, there have been plenty of underground rappers that have turned out as rap legends throughout their career.

Uh R-Mean is far from being a "legend". He would sell out in an instant if the opportunity arises. Anyways this topic could go on for days...I just think rap sucks nowadays. There are still some good underground rappers left, but I'm tired of repetitive rhymes and flows. There are millions of other artists out there I'd rather listen to. Never stick to one genre.

I know what you mean bro, I ain't sayin he is a legend, Im sayin you don't gotta go mainstream for you to be famous or make money off your music. And rap does suck, which the stupid and meaningless material "rappers" put out these days is really annoying. My most hated artist is Soulja Boy. If he's gonna continue making garbage like that they should call it a different genre and not hip-hop. Hip Hop is WAY more than "YAHHH TRICK" and "SUPAMAN THAT HOE"

lol that's the same mic I was thinking of copping. I might end up getting that one since it's pretty affordable. I just wanna spit for hobby, nothing serious. Tired of just writing texts and nothing else. lol

side note: funny how half the cats on armenian planet talk about how they know about hip hop and they know about this and know about that.. just because you skim through a few magazines, listen to the radio and look up/read about interesting facts about the game doesnt mean you know a thing about it.. me? if you ask me 10 questions about hip hop i wouldnt be able to answer more than 2 of them correctly, and thats IF i get lucky, so im not talking like i know more about anything than anyone else here, its just a different story when it comes to the art form/aspect of music..
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.
