Producing is dope. Your voice is definitely legit (lets be serious, white rappers often found awful), I just think your lyrics need more meaning. Great stuff anyways.

I downloaded them when they were available to download. 2 years ago I think. I don't have ruthless killer and can't hide because I can't download them.

Sick stuff, I especially liked Ruthless (killer). At the very beginning your voice sounds uncannily like Mos Def

yo how much do your instrumentals go for, because we wanna stop using industry beats, so we can send shit to labels. check us out, and add us: www.myspace.com/batterieznotincludedny
and perhaps we could collab

Hey I checked out your songs.

Hard times I liked the best and I think it fit with the way you rap much better. The other songs you guys sounded kinda like your trying to be someone your not with the "ain'ts" and shit. It jsut didnt flow well with your voices.

but Hard times was really chill I like it. I think if you guys thought about how your lyrics and voice match and write some other stuff that flowed as well as hard times your definetly on to something.

Id say by the end of June the Album will completed and ready for download either via paypal or itunes. Also, I can send a copy of the disk via mail. Of course, i'll make a new thread when I'm ready... honestly worse comes to worst the end of the summer. But realistically... im look at two to three months since im on a roll now.

lol I forgot to comment on your shit.

I think that for the style your gettin at its perfect. I would definetly buy the CD. Pos tho in the future maybe a few up tempo songs would throw in a nice little twist.

deffinetly good shit tho keep workin on it and keep us all updated

It's pretty good. I need to work on my voice to get it more like that. Want to hit me up with some producing tips? I can make a decent beat but it's never as chill as yours is.

I'm not jealous. I'm just looking for something innovative and new. Not the same old tired rhymes over a synthetic beat. Yeah, he might have good flow and sound good, but where's the ingenuity, the pushing of the boundaries? Its sounds like another attempt to be something that everyone else is already busy being. Why not do something new?
