Rap of the Week?

[Legba]

SAUNDERS: That track was delightful! I liked the message, and the whole vibe of the thing really reminded me of souls of mischief (good thing).

Fecal Face: Tight as well. You've definitely got a strong tone and clever lyrics. Was that a freestyle? Nice beat selection too.

Antwan: You're gettin better with your flows for sure! I noticed you switched your flow up like 3 or 4 times in "Another Man's Eyes" without sounding scattered (not as easy as it sounds). I don't think you sound like Weezy on that one......Lil Wayne was never that agro lol. But yeah, keep it up!

Oh, & those Cheeto lovin lil kids can somehow rap better than many adults who have made mainstream millions!
A hilarious shame.

[i am a snail]

someone spit over this and i'll love you all forever.

if you don't i might actually write bars for once in my life

[Antwan]

Do it Snail.
You're more than welcome.. look at me haha I ain't all that great
posting in here with saunders and emmit still.
We Just Vibin

Oh & Thanks alot Legba.. Means a good deal.

Cheetos and takis goin hard haha

[Antwan]

Well That collaboration I was hoping for didn't turn out..
I was feeling this so Here's my Verse Anyway.

[Antwan]

I started flowing with lines, It came out 16 Bars somehow.. Did I do it wrong or can I write however I want if it fits 16?
First time attempting a bar structure anyway.. I think it came out alright, for the skill level I'm at anyway.
I had a Chorus Idea a while back and threw it in there..
The Contest says 16 Bars and A Chorus.
Thoughts?

Lyrics:
The first person on earth to give birth to the first verse
through the dirt, This is not a Callin.. This is a Choosin
The Best Will be Movin, The Less will be Sittin doin nothin
We Create Somethin From Nothin, While you Lay Back Cussin
We Get the Crowd Jumpin, They Pumped up
They Love Us, Soon enough to Make y'all love what we do
sittin down to write it out, and we always see it through
Through to you, Through to Me, Through The Beast
Through the Speech, an Ima get it
Lay that Microphone down, Ima Spit it, Microphone spinnin
Im Grinnin Like who's Next, to Manifest a sequel
In the Game, We're not the Same
Cause We're all equal, We're all People
Like Rey Please Don't Pull the Plug, We Just Doin What We Love
Soon to be floatin up above, With the Doves, Stacks to the sky
They don't know why, They can't lie, When we Fly by

Every time I wake up I wanna go Back to sleep, Clock into Another Dream
Cause it Feels like I've been awake for ever
and when I wake Up I hope This Life Gets Better x2

[andreas]

why are you not famous

[Ohmidineffect]

http://soundcloud.com/ohmarjay/get-em if someone does a quickie over that I'd be pretty stoked. I just finished this shit like tonight. My first time creating a beat.

[Antwan]

Pretty sick beat man. Not really my style..
Speaking of shorties I did a little something today. Maybe someone will enjoy.
Haven't had much to spit about.. don't really want to put personal stories out there at my skill level.

[Antwan]

Well I was surprised to see an xzibit song today, Napalm.
I don't really listen to him but it was cool to see him still doing stuff.. and an approach I didn't expect.
Made me want to write something, so I wrote this and recorded it in about an hour.

[andreas]

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh gettttttttttttinnnnnnnnnngggggggggg thereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. like you have one finger on the ledge and squidward is coming over to suction cup you back onto the cliff but patrick is also coming over to lick the ice cream off of your head.

[Fecal Face]

Alpha MC is the best.

Also antwan, not bad.

[Antwan]

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh gettttttttttttinnnnnnnnnngggggggggg thereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. like you have one finger on the ledge and squidward is coming over to suction cup you back onto the cliff but patrick is also coming over to lick the ice cream off of your head.

I don't understand your story at all.. I'm getting closer to falling off of the cliff?
When did we get ice cream?

[DIZthis]

My turn.

[Antwan]

That was sick Diz
Didn't know so many people were doin this. Pretty cool.

[DIZthis]

Thanks man. Yeah I'm very new to this board an have yet to throw up my first Skate vid, lol, but yeah I've been doing music for years - I got my own full blown studio an whatnot. Haven't been doing much lately though, tryna get back into it.

[Antwan]

Hell yeah man.
Keep doing that shit. I'd like to hear more.

Went a bit out of my comfort zone on this one, think it was alright though..
playing with the number of words and another creepy tone.

[saunders420]

You got some pretty good stuff. You got a mic?

[andreas]

I have a new track but I mixed a word up and I don't wanna redo it. waaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.

[Fecal Face]

I'm recording something next week sir

[saunders420]

Eh diz I got a mic but rarely use it due to the fact of quality......Camera is justice for real though haa. My camera microphone is boss imo, records amazing sounds no matter how loud it gets.

Mic work is on youtube though....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10rMVlt6V0w dont know how to get my settings on lock yet


new microphone and interface soon though, well hopefully if I get my money right.

[Antwan]

OH, I AM FO REAALL
neva meant to make ya daughter cry
Some inspirational words from ya in there.
Damn. Outkast.. takin it back a few years.
Good at what you do man, for sure..
You could spit about anything and I'd enjoy listening.

Yeah I feel you, it does come out real clean for youtube shit for sure but you gotta step up to some equipment if you really want to put out bumpable shit feel me? Shit people can DL an throw in their whips, iPods etc etc. And for your own satisfaction of listening to your own shit, nothing better than hearing your own shit that sounds just as professional as mainstrean shit quality wise you know.

Yeah your current mic is bad, haha, camera is better than that thing. Cop yourself a Rode NT1a ($230 new or find it used for a lil cheaper) and either an M-Audio Mobile Pre or an Mbox 2 mini an you'll be golden bro you won't regret it - you'll never need to upgrade again. I'm on an M-Audio ProFire 610 interface, an $800 Shure KSM44 mic, an a $2,500 preamp/compressor/eq chain (Avalon 737sp) - so I'm on that good good lol but that Rode mic an mbox or mobilepre will get you sound damn near as clean as all that shit trust.

Respectable. thanks for the info. Ive been researching some hardware lately just dont know what to get. M-Audio keeps popping up everywhere, gonna have to do some more thorough research with em.

[andreas]

saunders that blew my fucking mind, again.

[DIZthis]

Respectable. thanks for the info. Ive been researching some hardware lately just dont know what to get. M-Audio keeps popping up everywhere, gonna have to do some more thorough research with em.

Either the Mbox 2 mini or M-Audio MobilePre matched with the Rode NT1a, trust. I own the Rode mic as my secondary mic myself, here's a quick take on a verse to show you the quality through the Rode/M-Audio (not the $2500 Avalon). No EQ'ing done, just a compressor slapped on it an that's it.



EDIT: Lemme know when you've peeped this so I can take it down right quick.

[andreas]

I swear this wasn't supposed to be recorded but it ended up on youtube. the conclusion to my 10 minute freestyle for some homies.

I've got tons of songs on here.

[Novel]

So this and the one above I did in a shitty manner. I keeps my shit pretty diverse I could do styles all day
don't forget to check the soundcloud linkage.

[Novel]

http://soundcloud.com/ironyokes/math-on-windows folks seem to like this one I guess...
check me out here too: http://soundcloud.com/sexsexsex/color-in-the-lines

Sexsexsex is to my music under the moniker; "Sex & Ice Cream", where when I turned 25 I couldn't stand hip hop any longer and had gone through hundreds of variations of style and prose and decided I wanted to just be a douche and sing about girls being the devil. so I'm talking to myself at this point.

[Antwan]

Dope as usual saunders.. just on here for a minute, I'll check your stuff later Novel.

So I was thinking about upping my quality in voice and editing for raps..
I've head good things about camtasia for removing static in the background.
I'd like to experiment with what I already have and see if I can't get something good going without purchasing new equipment.
So, what do you guys edit with?

[Antwan]

Sick Flow Novel, I liked the youtube stuff.
I'll be checking that soundcloud later. Good stuff man.

[Antwan]

Well I haven't been spittin much but I write all the time
Still trying to find the best program for my new setup
Here's some stuff I wrote a while ago using what I have currently Hope it isn't too bad
