Rate & critique my new EP demo ----> NoDotWon x Piris Reis (@nahnah) - "NoDotted Lines"

[FruitOfTheVale]

Sup with all my coli folks... This a brand new project I've been working on for a little less than a year now. The breh @nahnah handled 90% of the production on this, I'm the rapper. Best way I can describe the sound on this project is a little old school & somewhat experimental with the emphasis being on dope samples and dope lyrics.

I'm looking for constructive feedback about the track order, song choice, flow of the album, what you think are standouts, etc. I plan on getting this professionally mixed and mastered by the end of the month but I'm open to suggestions in the meantime before I let it go. The songs that are labeled "incomplete" are missing some feature verses that will be finished in a couple weeks, otherwise though the song structure and etc. is in place. There's a couple mixing ideas that I'm not skilled enough to implement on certain songs that will be on the final version.

Much love for listening to and critiquing my first project I dropped last year, I truly believe this is a much stronger project through and through (with 1000% better mixing lol) and is definitely worth your time

If the audiomack link is "broken" try refreshing the page, it's a known issue that is usually fixed by doing that.

This. I got time this weekend...

 

[Supa]

I gave it a quick playthrough.

No real criticism. Everything sounds good.

Truly, Sinai Rhymes, Got a Plot, and You Know Who You Are are the standouts to me.

The sound is very cohesive and that's a plus.

Song sequence would be the only thing that maybe could be adjusted but I think it's better to wait for the project to be complete before finalizing the order.

I think it's best to go with more upbeat, agressive, high energy, simpler songs first to grab the listener. Anything introspective that requires more attention put in the middle.

Yup it's a couple

The Soul Train soliloquist, that overcame
A propane pilgrimage... no "cain"
Mo' Leviticus, Mount Sinai rhymes,
Every bar bear the law, thou that shine must rise
Designed, I must grind, divined of much mind
The kind to touch the blind through a spiritual sign
Every miracle of mine disappeared into time
Huh, I learned from it, what's earned, discerned from it
In turn, returned to Hermon's Summit
Burned every idol and purged all the puppets
I was "burned every trial" like Berwick
To all the "fans of my fire", I reply with emergence

Anti-sociable? Naw, I'm anti-overthrow
Seen a man try okey-doke, seen a man lay comatose
Operandi modus cold as commando or samurai moral codes,
Trespass and them landmines overload,
Fresh shrapnel that can fry skulls and bones, GET BACK!
Get back, shut it down with the chit-chat
Not a sound nikka, Ion clown witcha, I ain't down witcha, that's facts
Town shyt, that's facts... Keep a down bytch, that's facts!
Move mountains for my scratch, no ounces it's just rap, no cap
Like boom-bap but this slap, in-tune, never off track
Presumed heir, top-hat, the moon mayor and a Mars mack
I'm "space-aged", straight moonshine, flying round in my O-zone
Laying round what I don't know, y'all spite the crown like I won't go
Y'all spite the crown like heads won't roll, guillotine to yo corn-rows
Turn Stephen King, it get mournful 'cause being king what I'm born fo'...

It's way more where that came from tho
