Declik- Emmouni 006 ( beat/instru)
I think it's a tricky one to get right, I think I myself have been shy with it too. When it comes to short vocal clips, feel more free to slap a more crazy "effect" style reverb on it. The vocal in this I started to question was it some kind of beat-tag or anti-sealing measure haha- Iron Keys

Yeah, it's nice. Nothing really more to add. Only thing I thought to suggest would be, maybe see how the snare sounds if it's a little darker. The rest of the track is quite dark, but the snare is quite sharp and bright. Maybe it works like that. But could always be worth having the snare a...- Iron Keys

Declik- Emmouni 006 ( beat/instru)
dunno what genre this is, it's tuff tho. Like 2g said eithe ran RNB ballad type shit over the top of this. OR imho, one of those highhh register EDM singer chicks. This feels almost like some DnB, Dubstep, Trap hybrid. I love that impact/stringhit whatever. Is that a sample or what? I think...- Iron Keys

I'm not sensitive.
I don't think the mixes are too bad. In your first two tracks I noticed the snare/clap is quite low and needs to be louder. And also your hat rolls were very 'in the back' too. Other than that, from a mix perspective, you might want to 'gritty' up the beats a little. Even if it's just clean...- Iron Keys

Second Attempt...
ngl, when I bought Studio One, that was my first step in going 'fully legit'. I made some bangers for a while solely off stock S1. It's good when you go this way, because you get to understand truly 'what I'm missing', you'll hit a point where you go (for example), "I need a really high quality...- Iron Keys

Off Topic This Is Why Most Rappers Today Suck
Yep. Is 'cause they think about music as a business in the wrong way. They think "yo bro download FL and some loop packs bro and sell type beats bro, branding bro make a logo bro" They're trying to sell a cheap product. Like they're selling counterfeit fidget spinners or some shit. That's not... -

Yeah this is around the time i switchedoff from it all. I think the timing was coincidence but i also noticed that that was the period all that lame shit started. -
Hi
these kind of beats. I like this, it's a vibe. Probably wouldn't do great in a battle here. I find it can be hard pitching these kind of beats too, 'cause a lot of people lack that ability to 'hear' the final product, and hear what's not there. Some need all the bells n whistles. THat's why...- Iron Keys

Off Topic This Is Why Most Rappers Today Suck
Yeah I agree. Because things weren't accessible immediately at a click of the fingers. You bought some albums, and had to play them until someone released a new one. Or you'd play and appreciate those ones until you grew bored or discovered tracks on it you usually skipped, that have now grown... -

And that's the thing, everytime I find something new or interesting... I'll stop actively listening to their album within a week. Maybe gets 3 or 4 plays. Then I'm looking for something new to listen to/explore. I also think this couples with the fact I'm looking for stuff I don't usually... -

to move into positive talk though, there are some 'new'(ish) rappers i think are decent. Conway the Machine Dave East Freddie Gibbs kinda not 'new' new tho, and I guess their 'style' is of an older style of rap. But still, their names seem to pop up relevant today. There's some others as... -

I think there was a few known man trying to defend drill saying it 'gave the youth an outlet to stay away from violence' ... like, are you thick? Drill is literally about; - saying you're going to stab/shoot/kill someone - doing it - recording the details of it / gloating in a song. Often... -

it's hostile out of immaturity and naivity tho. BAck then, gangs were gangs. And they do deadly shit. But they stay (mostly) smart. Now it's kids who's real 'gang' dealings is playing gta and getting shitty tattoos scribbled on their face. They go sing/mumble in autotune about 'ops' and being... -

I was talking unoriginal more in the style and performance of the lyrics as to the content or theme. But even then, everyone just copy the 'skrrrt skrrt skrrt' and whatever dumb sounds people be doing. And the accents are cringey 12yr old youtuber accents 'singing' with out of tune autotune... -

ngl, I hardly listen to rap anymore. Most of it is like; - poor vocal performance - wonky auto-tune - saying things that don't actually make sense - lacking originality in style/flow, etc (the music also follows this a lot too) There's a few things that pop up now and then that I'm like 'oh... -
