    Back in the day

    I remember back in the day when it was an actual art to rip
    But nowadayz people get paid to rap about what you can't get
    Nelly's song "Grillz" I can never afford to buy that gliss
    I'm still wearing them $1.99 watches around my skinny wrist
    When you rhyming a hot beat get you blown up quick
    Like you riding the clutch cuz you don't know how to shift
    Back then you could pull a broad in a busted up whip
    Nowadayz a kid like me would neva ever attempt that trick
    Pull up in a gremlin and all the people gonna hike on you
    To the folks on the net watch what one month can do
    To you, this 2006 time to start off the year brand new
    Crone like screwed and chopped is the stuff erebody on ohh

    Back in the day I was younger now I'm taking you on
    Crone is back and his talents is stronger
    Back in the day I was younger now I'm taking you on
    Now my lyrics gonna trickle down yonder
    Back in the day I was younger now I'm taking you on
    Now on the rap thang I must wander
    Back in the day I was younger now I'm taking you on
    Sit still why the badboy stomps ya

    I took the hook from an old song and made mine whodi ouch
    I'm too fresh to be stale

    not a bad topic... i actually dropped something similar... but this lacks a tonne of elements...

    as mentioned no multies... but i don't care so much if it phrased smoothly... but it didn't and that was the biggest difficulty in reading this, your lines are really awkward and stretched... this doesn't look like you could actually spit it and make it sound good... you could have salvaged a bit more out of this if you're rhymes were a bit more decisive, but you choose to be sloppy, probably expecting a heavy accent will make it sound ok... well don't settle for ok, use that accent on last resort, work harder at creating a strong rhyme base, i'm serious, that's what you mean when you say 'back in the day it was an actual art to rip'

    this is poetry man... treat it such and you'll find greater rewards in lining up your facts in a tight cohesive mesh of rhymes...

    keep working

    Hence Forward
