I recorded this track because I was angry at some clowns.

"Stab out both out both of your eyes/ with fukking knives/ scream in the dark till your hair snaps white!"

"I'll shove your head into a wall make you fall/
'till you're brain dead - and can't crawl"

Do you know how to use quantization on your vocals?

Nah. I wouldn't. I don't use timing effects, or ANY effects on my voice ever.

When I was talking to my homie Graydyoda from Dark Faced Hooligans (Bronx) he said "Man, the reason I like your voice is because your speaking voice has the same characteriy as your rapping voice"

And I appreciated that. Even my live shows, fans get what they hear on my albums.

That's where you're going wrong. When your ad lib track is not on time with your main vocals it just sounds messy.

When I record on a program that lets you see the wave form, you can literally see where the adlibs are off from the main vocal track. Or if you did doubles.

I would just go in and nudge it til it was exactly on point.

Gravediggaz scratch is a nice touch

Thank you. And big props for noticing in 2024.

I studied Gravediggaz, Gangsta Nip and MC Right, while making this album.

They all made incredible albums which is tough to do.

I hear you. On another thread that was noticed.

I purposely do that for how I harmonize.

I want the adlibs to sound a bit off. The mains and 90% of the adlibs do hit each snare and drum.

Here's a track with no adlibs to showcase my flow.

Word. I respect your opinion a tonne because the video you posted you flow straight with no errors for so long.

I will look into doing that more.

When I re-recorded some small sections I did do that.

It's the doubles that don't line up with your main vocals. Do you have any tracks without the ad libs/doubles?

That one you just quoted. It only has doubles on the chorus. The verses are straight vocal takes.
