RE: RAP CHALLENGE WEEK #16 SUBMISSION THREAD! - SUBMIT YOUR VIDEOS AND WIN SBD!
lol i feel the same way, i love these rap challenges, like you said it keeps the pen sharp! So you're the vice president of adsactly? Do you think i got what it takes to get signed?
Yeah it definitely keeps the pen sharp, and yes I'm the Vice President of @AdsactlyRecords I feel you still have a lot of improvements to make in terms of overall presentation, performance and personal growth. That is based on everything that I have seen, heard and observed so far. I believe you have to apply more pressure to yourself and put forth more energy, ride the beat with a steady flow, and script your rhymes where you have breathing room in between your phrases.
The content of your rhymes also are very creative at times, but can slide into predictability or just needs to be re-worded with a bit more intricacy, simplicity isn't always a bad thing, but it causes dry spots in tightly knitted verses probably cause you're just having fun with it, but your main focus should be on your delivery, performance and flow, and sometimes a sloppy or offbeat performance can hurt your entries from winning top 3 in this rap challenge. How you say something is more important than what you say, when it comes to and applies to the musical quality sound of your emceeing, but of course what you write is just near as important which is directed at who your audience is. So if you know your audience, and know the value and intention of your song, then you can see how you stand apart from the rest of other musicians in a unique facet of your own.
The writing is there for the most part, but you gotta have hunger, as well as what we call, controlled passion, so your rhymes come off clear with believable conviction.
There is a lot you can learn and improve upon bro. I give you my honest opinion because you asked. I hope what I have written helps you to strengthen those areas. You're growing everyday with all of us as we each improve upon our shortcomings. If you have any polished professional tracks or music videos that you think would showcase your overall ability, definitely send them over to @rondonson or link them to me if he isn't able to respond in a timely manner.
Thanks 4 your constructive criticism bro, i'll work on the things you mentioned. I know i have some growing to do as an artist and thank you again for the advice and honesty. One love brother!
I agree with his input. I've seen you write some master pieces but delivery, you got to stay on beat and not let the beat make you chase it. If you stay on top of the rhythm with the beat, you'll be fixing a lot of what needs to be worked on. Have fun though, and that's something you always do.
thanks for the advice, im'a work on my delivery 4 sure, the people has spoken! lol
You're most welcome bro. One love indeed. Anytime
