[QUOTE=Juice_Layer;34368483]I'm trying to make a rap to diss this one guy. I have an idea of what I want my track to sound like, here's an extremely rough sample.

[url]http://soundcloud.com/michael-glass/tinman-rhythm[/url]

I don't really know what the hell I'm doing in FL Studio to be honest.

But the rhythm kinda goes like that, then I have these lyrics. Each space is for each repetition of the sample. It's pretty fast. Bear in mind that I'm white (as well as the kid I'm dissing), so this is a bit of a lighter rap and not super hardcore like DMX or some shit lol. I guess you could compare it to Kanye / Common.

Need to finish the lyrics, please critique. I'd post this elsewhere, but the one in GD was locked.[/QUOTE]

just going to say this now, if you don't threaten/promise to rape/kill/eat the person in a diss, it's not an effective diss

[MachiniOs]

Downloaded heems mixtape but i haven't listened to it yet.

Oh, kind of like Common disses Drake in "Sweet"? Hmmm. Maybe I'll just rap about something else, homie.

I liked his older shit when he didn't really take himself seriously

Anything he put out post 2003 is mediocre at best (apart from maybe a couple of songs on Recovery)

Not too bad actually

[Cittidel]

This chick opened for Theophilus London last week, I was surprised at how good she was.

This track is the boasting kind of hip hop, I liked it but you may not:

and a more conscious track sampling The XX's Crystalised in this one, kind of corny at times but eh:

I don't know, I thought relapse was pretty good.

[QUOTE=G71tc4;34404347]Am i the only one that really doesnt like eminem? (minus the older stuff)[/QUOTE]

i actually do like him a lot, specially the earlier stuff, but the newer ones too, though they are very different.

i get that some people wouldnt like it, but as much as cant stand him might be an exageration

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWpC7PC7Sck[/media]

[Dr. Disciple]

I can't get into XV at all.

[Juice_Layer]

I hope you guys don't hate Kanye. I love the samples and the upbeat mood.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8yoxyIu0s8[/media]

The thing I love about Kanye, at least in his earlier 3 albums, is how happy most of his songs are.

[Dr. Disciple]

I have a love/hate relationship with his music but College Dropout and Late Registration is partially what made me fall in love with hip-hop.

[SilverHammer]

Apparently Tech dropped a mixtape last year that I completely missed. It's surprisingly fresh. He switches his flow up a bit and the beats aren't that 3rd World GREEEEEENN LAATTEERRRNNN bs he had last time. and it's free!
