Not bad, good lyrics. Try and make the words more distinct from one another, it gets a little slurred + monotone at a few points.
What if sombody with Tourrets could have turret syndrome and they just kept making turrets? Think about that.~Tasteless

The lyrics are pretty good and you understand how the song is supposed to work. That is good.

I think you need to either find some dedicated producer or work on the instrumental part of the song. Also, with those lyrics, I think your style needs to be big in-your-face style, so if you could make your vocals more "dirty"-sounding it would be great. If your voice was a guitar i'd tell you to play electric for this song.

Overall, you have the foundation and that is so much better than the flashy kids who only have the execution.

Some tough love for you! I don't like the way you sound. Your voice, delivery, and cadence all really bother me. All of these can be worked on.

Voice is the trickiest one. To me, your voice doesn't radiate with that charisma that all emcees must possess. In my eyes, you could never rock a crowd sounding like that. And maybe that's not a goal of yours or anything, but I don't even feel comfortable grooving out to this song as is. What I did was record myself speaking with different voices until they became more natural. This was necessary for my daily life because I used to use a whiny bitch voice often.

Delivery's related. Practice practice practice. Never sound like you're stumbling over your words. Try rapping as fast as you can, try shouting your rhymes, try crying them out, try sprinkling in various amounts of emotion. You're a bit monotonous as is.

Cadence is more with your writing. Right now everything seems so linear and even (boring). You shouldn't be chasing the beat, you should be riding it and chopping it up. Have any rappers you like? They probably mix it up too. I listen to cats from project blowed anytime I notice myself sounding stale. I end up biting but whatever ;/ Try writing for a lower tempo?

Lyrically you're alright. I generally prefer rap that's less full-sentence-y and more poetry-y, but if this is your style then keep at it. Some lines like 'It's time to die bitch!' seem out of place. Wordplay please though!

And no joke, I hear the closet's a great place to record if you have a shitty setup.

I'm not rapping, I'm just passing the time between being alive and winding up inside of the ground with a smile on my face and the crown on the place where it belongs on top of my head. Yeah, when I said forever., I even meant when I'm dead.

I thought the beat was terrible (sounds more like pop than hip-hop). The problem with your delivery is that you only get as loud as you need to for the mic to pick you up; it will (hopefully) sound much better if you're louder. That'll also help you to enunciate your lines.

As for as the lines themselves, they're pretty good. I kind of wish you'd include more polysyllabic and internal rhymes.

What are some of your influences?
No clues.

first off thanks pupatree i will work on all the things you have said especially delivery i think i was so quiet because the mic input volume was at 0.1 so im going to switch that to 1 and i think ill try recording in my bathroom for the fullness and resonance. as for rap influence eminem, jay-z,proof, lil wayne (sorry), the game, royace 59, and pac are the best.

dernebel hey i agree i sound super weak and need to try to find a way to be edgeir hopefully by turning my mic up like i said that will help a little. also and this is off topic do you like the band rammstein because your name is 1 of there songs

anyways thank you guys for advice and everyone who commented you gave a lot of good criticism.

You know, what I really liked about this is that you're not just a person with talent, you're a person who can take criticism. I haven't seen you get mad at anyone, you just take the criticism and try to improve on what you think needs improving. You can go really far with that. Great work, and I'm looking forward to an improved version

i think u need to work on your delivery. i feel like if u improved ur intonation it would sound a lot better, because like someone said it's monotone in some parts.

beat was sick weird too, imo. just not my thing.
