Upon second and third listen, I think my main problem with the first track is the hook.... the verse was straight, flow was good, and the beat is nice... but there's just too much goin on with the hook, it's distracting and kind of just comes off as noise to me... I think it'd really benefit from the omission of one of the added elements, either in the beat or in the vocal, cuz that'd really take away that distraction and let the rest of the track shine for what it is...
Second track, I just really wasn't feelin... it wasn't too complex by any means, but subject-matter and content I couldn't get into... the beat was decent tho...
I'm really gonna have to check out more of those other albums, I think before I just listened to what was on myspace... it'll give me a better idea as to how you're evolving overall...
