I like the bassline and groove.It's nice.

The main thing I think it needs is more changes and lil pauses at the end of the 4th or 8th bar in certain spots for movement and transition.

Stops and pauses in certain places can really make a track breathe. *yes*

Also I find that with a lot of hip hop tracks I make I'll start the verses out really dead and minimal like just the kick and clap and maybe 1 or 2 instrument parts.

Then after maybe a few bars punch in the 808,hi hat & snare and then wait a few and take em out again,and/or put another instrument part in.

Rappers seem to really respond well to it.

I'm not saying follow my method,you can choose to mute whatever parts you want in the ways you want to.There's really no wrong or right way to do it.
That's all personal preference.

Other than that I have no critiquing,keep it up!

Kinda nice to hear a track like this.Not many do hip hop on here.It reminds me of tracks I've made a few yrs back. :dancing:


That's not a bad thing,it's just as I've grown in knowledge it has compromised natural inventiveness.

It's a twisted game of give/take...


Thanks for sharing!


Take care!
