ok, here's my feedback
FIRST OF ALL... dude, seriously, you have to organize your tapes better, you put the songs on itunes and theyre all over the place lol. and that does not help you at all beacuse it fucks up the continuity of your music, like you start to listen to Breathe instead of Comming home. you know?
ok.
1.- Coming Home
well, can't say much on here cuz well, I produced this lol. But did you really fixed the volume? still sound very low. where did you recorded the album? some songs are PERFECTLY and BRILLIANTLY mixed, and some are just terribly mixed lol.
like this. I liked that you used that as the hook, I think it fitted great, but prolly you could've added an layover to give it a bit of more power. overall a great song tho'
2.- Pressing On
this one is also kinda badly mixed. I like the power of your delivery here, this song gave me the chills on each of the hooks, specially at the end where that girl come singing, who is she by the way??, this was a great great song. I like the lyrics aswell.
3.- Come Correct
smh at the beat tag... soundclick
. lol.... I like the beat tho, and its good to listen to you on this kind of beats man, I enjoyed this track a lot. your lyrical ability is really fucking good Kez. Good song man.
4.- If You Say So
what I love the most about the song is the topic and how you performed it man, story telling, you do have an ability to tell your stories specially about your music. everything is good. one of the best songs of the tape aswell.
5.- Make Ends Meet
this is probably my favourite song of the tape, I already know the words to the hook n shit, I've been playing this song a lot. one thing that got me thinkin "yet another song about the hard times, but thats the only situation that can spark rhymes". Makes it very clear why are your tapes like this and why are most of the songs in this kinda pace. however man, its always good to expand a bit. anyway, fucking love this song. great beat choice.
6.- Worth My Time
This beat was produced by Slave Bell, Mart 85, Atomic Beats dot com!.........
I'm gonna keep complaining about that man hahahaha. I dont like this song too much, I mean the beat is good, your flow is perfect, your lyrics are great but damn the combination doesnt fit eachother. like the beat with your lyrics. I dont know, thats what I think... however like all you managed to nail it haha. probably if the hook wasnt like that, sounds too... agh, lol. u know?
7.- Told Myself
I think I might aswell make a remix with this song, d.dubs, tom chamber's, vettori's, and everyone else that I've heard on this beat. SEE, thats the problem of using soundclick beats, you loose your uniqueness, the listener automatically compares it... I'm sorry to sound Harsh Kez, but man. I'm probably your number 1 fan lmao so, I'll demand from you like everyone demands from Eminem. Like the shoe's on the other foot. having that said... you killed it. your flow and lyrics are great man. The girls control the world with their Tits
Its great man. I do enjoy listening to this song a lot.
8.- Without You
the beat is excelent... A-A-A-A-Allrouda productions....
lmao....
YOUR FUCKING MUTHERFUCKING DELIVERY IS EXTREME!!!... damn man, this is too good to be true. your flow is perfect, and your mixing!!! your mixing is great on this man
. The start of the second verse is beautifull.... another of my favourites probably
9.- Out Of Reasons
= nuff said
10.- Jagged Pill
probably the best song of the tape. (after Out Of Reasons
)... but damn man, this song man... you should've released this as a single, would go down in history.. what a song. this is a MUST on your next Greatest Hits tape.... beautifull song, great hook, great ass topic, even tho many people do it, I think you killed man... actually... Jagged Pill > 25 To Life. 10/10 bro
11.- Poison
now here I can tell you that by this point it kinda gets a little depressing man. like you listen to the beat start and you go like, again?... you feel me??... doesnt mean that I dont enjoy the song man, specially cuz your lyrics on this song are real as fuck, second verse is crazy again. I like the hook being different tho', it gives it a more emcee feeling. very Hip Hop.... I do like it
12.- Undecided
I like topic of this song... INSTANT BEATLEASE DOT COM
yeah, man this song is really good, all of them are really good to be honest.. that mutherfucking guitar solo, and your flow on it is crazy, one of the most memorable moments of the album... the hook is brilliant aswell... yeah man, this song is really good "pain is mightier than the sword"...
probably another one of my favourites
13.- When The Music Stops
I think this one of the only songs I didnt really enjoy that much, it lacks something to be different. I feel like I've heard this song in at least 5 times per album. its missing creativity. and other than your lyrical technique nothing else shines that much on here. Second verse AGAIN is fucking crazy lmao
14.- Tell Me Why
Man, you really hated uni, this is by far your saddest album. You get to a point where man, I'd really love to see you on a happy track just to know everything is ok man,
. I like the lyrics of the hook but I didnt liked how you performed... oh, and this beat is crazy. I have one similar for my next album. again this second verse is amazing man, I remember the first time I heard it I replayed it as soon as I got to the hook... what a verse man... This is why you have to keep doing and showing off your music so people can see how fucking good you can place your words and structure your lyrics man. its really really good man, I really want to you to put this outthere to a borader audience and have them really see and learn from the way you write, you dont necessarily use complex vocabulary that much, but instead of doing the classic multis n shit way of rhyming you do a whole 4 verse poetic structure with more inner rhymes than a mafucka.
15.- Breathe
now here is a flawed tracklist placed, the beat is extremely similar to the previous song, it takes away any originality from it, its the psychology of music man. just like colors. the way you place them together determines the feeling you want to create in the spectator... and here you are creating boredom and repetitiveness... and even worst, you come from "tell me why" which is brilliantly mixed to a song that its not so good quality wise. But I do have to give you credit for the difference you actually did, no hook, short track... It was needed.
16.- Foresight
oh my God, what a song this one, why did you removed OC's verse?.. yeah, I fucking love this song. and let me say EXCELLENT choice of outro track. I love listening to this song, relaxed, different, nice ass beat, chill, lyrical ability to the top of the notches, the hook is unique, and its interesting to listen to you saying "take a kush break" hahaha... but yeah, I loved how you eneded with this.
btw: you were not stupid to release that first tape. believe me "what doesnt kill you makes you stronger right" and better than that, add an additional desire to make music and improve man, I think if you hadnt done that you wouldnt had this impressive lyricism and desire to get better with each album you do.... Im proud of you mate
Overall
well, I already gave most of my overalls within the feed itself haha, you know, the vibe is too similar throughout the album, you should try to keep it more varied. try to organize yourself better when creating an album. have all the songs on similar mix levels. also, you could add The Coming Home with my hook as a bonus track.
Great album man. You never dissapoint
