I've only listened to 4 tracks so far. Intro was almost exactly like Eminem's Relapse Intro (not feeling that). The first 3 tracks are dissing people mainly Soulja Boy (wasn't feeling that) Just do ur thing my dude and fuck them industry rappers (he garbage anyway no need to waste ur time). I'm going through the rest but its decent so far. More feed to come

Counselling:

This reminds me a lot of Tyler, The Creator's skits on Bastard and Goblin. A little too similar.

Hahaha:

I already told you how I feel about this track, I think. But good work on this one.

Food For Thought:

The delivery is solid on this track. The flow is pretty dope here too. I feel like you should've started the mixtape with this song. Lyrics are pretty cool, you do this thing where there are some interesting things going on in lines but you end a lot of them with some more basic syllabalic schemes which is kind of nice because it makes it easy to follow what's going on.

Heartshredder:

This has a really neat sound to it. I feel like the beat is kind of similar to Food For Thought though, it's not entirely true, which becomes clear in the hook. I like the hook on this quite a lot. There is a bit of a slip on the flow stuff about Ke$ha. That weird talking bridge thing was a little strange, not my favourite thing on the track.

Calm Down:

This is pretty solid man. My favourite one so far. I like the change up from the other tones. I really vibe with the hook here.

Life's Good (Feat. Anxiety State):

I love the delivery that you start this track with. Just sorta…lazy haha. Your verse should've been mixed a bit louder. The dubs on the hook are a little slippy at points. Ty did his thing. At first I thought I didn't like the energy he brought to his verse but in contrast to your verse I like it.

Boyfriend (Remix):

I don't mind this track, though I don't think I would've put it on your mixtape. It seemed like a more professional effort without this slightly sloppy joke song on it.

Flip The Script:

Not a bad track. I think the mixing on the hook is a little off, sounds more quiet than it should. The rhymes here are better than some of the other stuff. Good stuff man.

Cutting The Cord:

I really like some of the rhyming stuff and flow here. A little bit of delivery stuff could be touched up but all around it's pretty solid. Singing isn't exactly your strong suit. I'd recommend getting some voice lessons and staying away from the singing for now.

I Don't Need You:

Not my favourite beat. I'm not a supporter of pre-made hooks by other artists so I can't vibe with this track to much. That said, your verses are pretty tight man. There's some slips in the second verse flow. Laughing my ass off at “I do punch bitches”. The adlibs could've been a touch quieter.

Off The Record (Feat. Anxiety State):

I've already told you I think this is fire. I'll be ripping apart that remix soon.

Mean:

I've already given you feedback on this one too. The hook is the weak point in the song, which I think is mostly the fault of the mixing/engineering.

Remember The Night:

Really cool vibe here man. Verses are pretty tight. I like the lyrics on the hook but I'm not really vibing with how it flows/delivers on this track. That third verse/bridge could've used some echo/delay. A bit of flow change up in it wouldn't have hurt either.

Outro:

I love this piano piece. It's from Sinima right? Not crazy about the way this ends. It's got potential to be funny but is delivered…oddly haha.

Other things:

As a mixtape, the sound is relatively cohesive. I mentioned earlier about changing the starting track but aside from that, each song flows to the next quite well. GET SOME BETTER FUCKING ARTWORK. You FYL/Vanity kids have talent but you NEED to get some better graphics to back your music. Hit me up, if I'm free I'll whip something together that will look much more professional than some text on top of an image. I won't charge you unless it's some massive project (then it's $5).

Overall:

I'd say that the main things you need to work on as an artist are engineering things. You try some things but some of them don't exactly work that well. The other thing is the wordplay/rhyme schemes. I'd like to see some more metaphors/similes in your music and some more intricate interline rhyme schemes. Not that you should change too much about how you rhyme but it'd be interesting to hear, you do a bit more with that in some songs but yeah.

The mixtape is a solid release for where you are in your development, but now that you've got a lot of the vocal things hammered down, don't forget to try to improve all the time and also try to focus more on songwriting rather than making tracks. I know that there are sometimes here where you do dabble in that vein, so keep on grinding that way.

You should be happy with this release, it's pretty on point.

Counseling (Skit) - It's a little too similar to the Relapse intro and Tyler The Creator's intros. But it fits the mixtape.

Hahaha - I've already given you feedback on this track, but basically my only problem with it is the same problem I have with most of your music: It sounds like your vocals are almost always too loud compared to the beat. Other than that, this is one of my favorite tracks on the tape. 

Food For Thought - This track really shows the Grim Demize/Anxiety State influence in your music, but you still manage to make it sound like you. I think it would've been better if you switched up the flow a little, but it's a good track regardless.

Heartshredder - This is probably my second or third favorite track on the album. I love Sean Divine's beats, and you do your thing on it. But the issue I brought up earlier about the vocal volume is very bad here. I love the chorus on this one.

Calm Down - I like this song because it shows a softer side (although not by much) of you than the rest of the tracks do. The vocals are still way too loud, though. But this is still one of my favorite tracks.

Life's Good ft. Anxiety State - You and Ty are a great pair on tracks. There's really nothing wrong with this one except for your vocal volume. Ty did his thing like always. 

Boyfriend (Remix) - This will be played at max volume in my car for a long time. That's really all I can say about it. I wish I did it before you did. I think it would have been cool if, on the chorus, you had everyone in Vanity singing it.

Flip The Script - ''I'm the illest around, yet no one is feelin' me. But I'm feelin' myself.'' I like that line. This is a cool track, but it doesn't really stand out to me. It seems sort of like a filler to me.

Cutting The Cord - I replayed this one 3 times the first time I listened to it. This is my favorite track on the album.

I Don't Need You ft. Dubbs - It's a good track, nothing's really wrong with it except for the volume thing, but it also feels like a filler. I love the second verse, though.

Off The Record ft. Anxiety State - Like I said before, you and Ty are a great pair on tracks. I like the reference to The Kevorkian Method. This is another of my favorites on the album.

Mean - I showed this track to a friend of mine last week and made him a fan. You're welcome.

Remember The Night - I think this is the most powerful track on the album. This one had me bobbing my head with my eyes closed. Best track on the album, in my opinion.

Outro - I fucking love it. I laughed for 5 minutes straight.


All in all this is definitely the best mixtape/album that you've put out so far. It's fucking crazy how much you've improved. If you ever stop making music, I'm flying to Nebraska just so I can kick your ass.
