You've got good flow, rythm, delivery, and a lot of snappy lines in this one. I feel like you've found a good sound and are putting thought into what you write, which is wicked. So, good job on another track!
Now some critical thoughts. The lines stand alone very well, but I couldn't tie it all together and get what you're trying to say overall. I think the song would stand stronger if you gave it some structure. That doesn't mean add a chorus or anything else specific, just be aware of where it starts, where it ends, and how it gets there. As well, some distinct dynamics would be nice: highs and lows in energy, changes in the pace of the flow, etc.
Yup. As always with my criticism, take it and use it or call me a fool, either is cool with me, haha. Keep dropping these, it's always a pleasure to listen.

I dig what you're sayin. This was pretty much just an artist summary track, kinda going back to my roots, hence the lack of structure. Check out the track I just posted, "Happy Goes Lucky" if you're lookin for MASSIVE amounts of concise 'beginning, middle, end' format lol.
Thanks for the insightful review, tingtonger. Stay tuned!

It sounds good at 0:40 when the sample goes into the underwater feel. I feel like some sporadic solo brass samples would sound good with this beat.

that would sound pretty tight, if i work on this again i'll have to try that out, thanks

"Sounds like an old green day song"
I think you've put together something solid here. It sounds good, and you're definitly getting good at putting Fruity Loops compositions together. There are a few things that bugged me though:
-I can't really hear the base drum (try EQing the different drum parts seperately and also EQing your guitar).
-I don't get a general sense of the dynamics, ie the song doesn't build or fall in energy, it just kinda stays in the same relative place after the guitar comes in
-add more instruments!!
For your first forray into Fruity Loops it is definitly a solid foray, so keep on working at it! I also really dig composing some of the song in Fruity loops and then playing a real guitar over it, it's a cool way to do things. Good job senor!

Thanks mate. I hate the Green Day comparison (that's me, sorry) but besides that you pretty much nailed it. See, the problam is, I'm running the demo version. So no save feature = no time to write/make things better. Still looking for a way to pirate my version, but whatever.
I'll look into the EQing thing, don't know how to do that yet. I'll try it though. About the energy thing - correct, but with an 8 hour time limit, it's pretty tough to write a song :P
Thanks a lot, mate.

I'd say you've got to work on keeping the flow going and getting more comfortable with when you need to breath. For the first time I've heard you rap though it's definitly good work! Keep spittin these lines, and when you get the time keep poppin out them smooth beats!

It's too bad the game fell apart man, it would have given this wicked song the publicity it deserves!

The recording quality is the only thing bringing this down for me. The piece itself is done very well. Invest in a better mic, you play well enough to deserve one! Thanks for bringing quality stuff like this to Newgrounds!

Oh top of the line good sir, top of the line! It truly is excellent to hear another jim dandy peice of music! I applaud and congratulate you!
I think we should try to squeeze as many MC's onto this song as possible. A show of hands as to who agrees?
