My (Bigot Boy's) Satanic Music

Bro these are actually sick, I dig the one on the Holodomor as well. I like how you take some aspects of older 90's-ish rap but also tried to stick with the modern sort of flow. Me personally I dig the 80's,90's tracks but there are some modern artists like Vince Staples, $uicideboy$ etc. who's music I kind of like. Also some Grime artists from the UK (Where I'm from) who are decent.

I'm more into artists like the Wu-tang Clan, Big L, Buckshot and all the older primordial rappers, but these newer styles I've actually grown quite fond of after my mate introduced me to them.

I like these tracks tho, you should make more if you find the time-its rare you'll see a rapper speaking of Satan in a positive light. I'm actually thinking of making music myself but I never seem to be able to rouse the self discipline in order to do so. Ever since I started listening to German and Napoleonic marches, my abilities at writing fat bars and learning them have receded XD but I have recenty come back to it due to recent movements in my life. Maybe you could tell me a little about how you produce these (more in terms of your mindset as I am sure you probably found out how to produce off your own accord).

All in all, you got yourself a first fan XD.

I enjoyed the song and you've potential as an MC.

Now time for some constructive criticism...

1. It really does have that mainstream,rap hip/hop vibe in my opinion.
2. My sincerest apologies, I enjoyed the "throw a fit/fist" chorus but it didn't need to drag on about 50 seconds long on both of the choruses

3. Practice, Practice, Practice...
- Internal and External Rhyme schemes (Check out Check out MF DOOM's That's That RHYMES HIGHLIGHTED: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpVnuD6qnHw for example.)
- Flow timing and shifting your flow while staying within the beat (About 2 times your flow went over the beat throwing the timing off) The beat should compliment your flow as much your flow compliments the beat. They are synonymous and as one.
- Your overall flow, sounded robotic most of the time as if you were simply reading off of what you wrote. There's nothing wrong with that, but I felt the delivery of the speech didn't compliment the beat as well as it could have.
- Learning freestyling, it will set you up for success, even if it's just mumbling the timing over and over and switching it up every now and then do it.
- MY BIGGEST PIECE OF ADVICE TO YOU:
Rap about something very personal, or your life around you. It doesn't have to be on a track but this will get you going. I myself have executed rhyme schemes more skillfully when I'm speaking about what's happening with me now.
- And always keep the viewer guessing.

4. Also, (and this is strictly opinionated) I think the artificial beat combined with the artificial voice filters throws off the entire ensemble. Most hip-hop has that artificial background music with a natural voice on top of it. You get that balance of natural and artificial and overall sounds great together. But with artificial and artificial it's like a song with only major chords and not a mix of minor, diminished, or flats, sharps and intervals. I understand entirely that you need to cover your voice for your safety but I'd recommend trying to have a natural beat over the artificial voice

If Hip-Hop is something that interests you, I recommend you try freestyling over instrumentals.
9th Wonder (Bladey Mae Mixtapes), MF DOOM's Special Herbs, Madlib, Necro, J Dilla, (I think Necro would be quite suiting for your delivery and overall flow though)

Thank you for your reply Anne Flowers, I truly appreciate it! It sounds like you are/were a fan of rap yourself, hehe? :D

While I totally get what you're saying, I think the style you're referencing is the early 2000's and earlier-type of rap. I go for a very modern style, which does have a lot of effects by nature. The lead vocals are also doubled, which may be what you're noticing as well. The subgenre is known as "cloud rap" and, more specifically, what I do is "horrorcore".

Here's a really famous example of horrorcore by $uicideboy$: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqtobIpZt68

And another by a less known artist Ramirez: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IX-8h-FBQtE

Fo sho bro, I am quite invested into hiphop/rap myself yo. lol
It's a genre music that both intrigues yet disgusts me. lol
It has glorious potential, but it definitely needs a Satanic evolution.

But I totally hear what you're saying, and yes you're right I'm more invested into the old school side of things.

I'm excited to see how you evolve. If you need album art help hit me up. I'll happily assist you if necessary. :)

I couldn't agree more, I was worried myself that rap wouldn't make it through into the new Age of Satan... yo. Lol.

I've actually been planning on using fanmade art if ever sent to me! I know my way around photoshop but drawing things from scratch is not my forte hehe... Thanks for the kind words, I have lots of music planned. :D

Not bad Bigot Boy I think you have potential try and make some hits. Anne Flowers the rap industry just talks about money, girls and occasionally Jewus Christ. If you want to waste your time away and be a Yehubor/piece of shit than following the ideals laid out in mainstream rap (every music has ideals) will do it.
Thanks brother. :) Almost done with some new tracks.
