Sounds pro mate. Reminds me of Timberlands' rhythms somehow...maybe it be good to bring in some kind of unusual ethnic percussion hits...I can also imagine some middle-eastern type string riff for the hook. Dunno though - sounds good to me anyhow.

Heavy tune! Love that bass that hits with the kick, sounds kinda like an ed rush n optical bass. That MC is really good aswell. Is he a mate or something?

Yeh man thats heavy. 2nd drop is lively, bass work is heavros. Think you're onto a winner.
Maybe some subtle production on the vocal, little touches to bring it more into the mix.
Big!

I really like the beat i think it has a really nice bounce to it and would deffiently work well in a club i especially like that cowbell type percussion in there at the start makes it really funky unfortunatley the vocalist annoys me he sounds like a british rapper imitating an american accent and it put me off and i think his lyrics are weak (i couldnt understand what the fuck hes on about to be honest) get another vocalist and that track will be fucking excellent.

my man, i'm the mc on that track, and i'm a northener from doncaster. i grew up around the rave scene and dont really know what your on about... never listen to american rappers and dont wanna sound like one. appreciate comments but like i say i'm a northener, would of liked to spend more time on the lyrics but in 10 minutes what can you do? didnt know em properly when i said em, so might of sounded awkward in places but it was meant to be a sample not a well produced tune. as for the american twang thing, who knows???? i've been performin off and on for 10 years and never heard that before !!! anyway dont fuckin diss me all youve heard is 20 seconds of lyrics.... as for 8-bit and me were avin a buzz wiv diss collaboration. theres a topic on the forum about negativity i suggest you av a good look. and stop the personal attacks

i'm re-writin the first lyrics on that track now... admittedly they were rushed and not the standard i usually write to. the last two rhymes i like but the first two need some surgery. i'll get 8-bit to post the tune in a day or so and should be to your likin.

Maybe i did come off a bit strong with my comment but you asked for thoughts and feedback in an honest manner, take it as you wish im only one person what do i know. As you say its was quick and maybe thats why i couldnt understand you im sure given the time to write a few verses and a catchy hook i will eat my own words. As far as the accent thing goes again if no one has ever commented on this then it could be the haste of your flow at a quick recording and perhaps the mic you used may have coloured your voice, i look forward to hearing the finished product but if you ask for opinons you have to expect criticism from time to time.

no problem m8, and most af the things u mentioned about the mic and not avin enuff time contributed to the sound of the vocal an i didnt go school so i'm not the fastest reader. i wernt feelin the lyrics when i said em an i wernt happy either. got more time to redo it now. think youll like the result......

expelled at 14 from hall cross comp in the red light in doncaster. i was guttered i was makin a small fortune. it was fate turning me into the bad man. fortunatly for me i can read and right but all we knew was life was for the living. you just had to be hard as nails and youd be fine. so when everyone else did maths i did boxin and learnt to hustle with me mates. i still wouldnt change a thing cos the hard life made me who i am....
