*new gt track!* "maybe i'm alright"

[Paulie]

GT...

my man!

As far as a radio friendly track is concerned, that was without a doubt your best written track so far! I love the complex chorus too, each bar a different line. Your flow is tight as a bug's ass these days too.

I'd like to hear that over a different type of beat though, but something still radio friendly. It kind of felt empty, like the beat needed a little something more. I hate to say it, but just for shits and giggles, maybe one of 50's released lovey-dovey singles.

The 21 Questions beat, maybe? I hate that song, but I'd just be interested in hearing your vocal over it.

Same type of feel with the guitar...

I'm listening to 21 questions and running your flow through my head, you'd have to turn the tempo down on your vocals like about 5 bpm or so. I think it might sound hot!

Can you send me the acapella of that? I wanna play with it

That's because you didn't make it, ding bat!!

haha, yeah...

I've been messing around a little bit though lately.

cool, you still have my email right?

The wifey and I have been in the process of opening a pre school since the end of the winter, and I'm almost done doing the work I have to do on it. This week should be the finishing touches. After that I'll finally have some damn free time again so I'll be back in the lab.

Not a lot of hip hop fans here. Lots of geeks and geezers I guess

Great vocals, GT.

CRITIQUE IT PAH-LEEZE.

BEAT BY SHADOWVILLE PROD.

I've got nothing to criticize about your flow or content. Good stuff there. i think you know what you're doing.

About the beat, the wah guitar distracted. I like a beat the works on the subconscious while I'm focusing on the rap, and this one got in the way of that sometimes. It wasn't a terrible beat, i just think your flow deserves better.

That version of a loose hi-hat wasn't doing it for me. This is a drum pattern and sound I'm hearing in my head. Comes in at about 15sec.

You've got a tight flow, so a tighter hi-hat and harder snare would compliment that I think. The bass line is solid.

I wasn't digging the wah guitar that much, but the slide guitar in the first verse could work with some added echo and longer slides, so it sounds something similar to what's going on here.

Those are just some foggy ideas. Everyone's a critic, like they say. Great work, though.

Uh oh, we got someone who knows music production.

Do you make beats egg?

 

[Sheldon]

I messed around a little bit in high school, but never got serious with it.

 

[Paulie]

I was working on making a career out of it until some unexpected bullshit happened to me and changed my course.

i'm still waiting for GT to send me the acapella of this so I can play with it.
