    On Top Of The World

    Most can feel my pain, usually by the way I look
    I mean thats why way it goes, when you take the way I took
    The brave branded beasts, because they bomb these bundles
    and try to find somewhere to bury bodies in the concrete jungle
    that's my arts heritage, from there it starts marriages
    with ventin on rhymthm, beats, and that starts lyricists
    lyricists start narritives, storys of gone parents and
    hood tales hardly aware that its told with a genius touch
    these cats evolved into a seasoned bunch of emcees that bump
    in every car in the ghetto, and even punks had beatin trunks
    and it's on, caught fire and wouldnt go out... after all
    this was the solution to crime and basketball
    fuck that cha'll, everyone a rapper now tryna get rich
    and these cats arise for the glammor and glitz
    then the real emcees mad, fuck that they actually pissed
    that the radio got held hostage, and overran with this shit
    we were exposin our struggles, and they thought it was cool
    bought it for their sons, and they brought it too school
    played it on their walkman, and their friends bought it too
    probally shocked, these storys wern't what they thought people do
    it even made alot of the news, between o'reily and bush senior
    and now rap hates bush junior, and we aint sophmore either
    so now it's a war, everyone raps it's got fifty genres
    one for bling, one for confusing, one for missing fathers
    but they all the dads prolly appear, when you make it on the scene
    because raps stupid when your aspiring, but genuis when you suceed
    it'll have you vommittin, ballin in tears, and ready to stop it sincere
    i'm on top of the world, and i can see all that from here

    I thought this was dope.

    The rhyme scheme overall was just so easily fitted together. Your take on the topic was dope, when i said On Top Of The World as a topic, i dint expect you to use this take on the topic. It was nice, Element of surprise for when you open the thread

    Most can feel my pain, usually by the way I look
    I mean thats why way it goes, when you take the way I took

    ^^ I liked that.

    and

    The brave branded beasts, because they bomb these bundles
    and try to find somewhere to bury bodies in the concrete jungle

    I thought the way you described the concrete jungles and the burying of bodies was ill.

    Definiatly HOF worthy

    Deep freaking line , truth !

    that's my arts heritage, from there it starts marriages
    with ventin on rhymthm, beats, and that starts lyricists
    I can relate to these lines here a lot and I mean a lot.



    Overall nice verse definitely a nice flow of things
    with meaning and depthness. Good content
    and you brought out very good points.
    a different style for sure which is good. It
    works for you.

    Most can feel my pain, usually by the way I look
    I mean thats why way it goes, when you take the way I took
    another deep line however I think you meant to use
    (The) instead of why, I'm not 100 percent sure.

    we were exposin our struggles, and they thought it was cool
    bought it for their sons, and they brought it too school
    another example of bringing out good points
    which makes this OM a strong piece.

    anyway like I said overall a good drop indeed.

    Nice piece my man

    Your rhyme scheme was on point, especially in the opening two lines, They attracted my attention from the start. Your choice of vocab helped the piece alot! It was not too complex, nor too simple. Your take on topic was also nice, It was different.

    fuck that cha'll, everyone a rapper now tryna get rich
    and these cats arise for the glammor and glitz
    then the real emcees mad, fuck that they actually pissed

    I especially liked those lines there. They summed up the piece nicely.

    Good Work

    and it's on, caught fire and wouldnt go out... after all
    this was the solution to crime and basketball
    nice man i really like that

    the first few bars were a little choppy, but you fixed this up nicely and made it flow much better... the topic was not original, but the title for the piece was... the ending bars were pretty much a good closure to the piece long with some other quotables.. i like your style because you don't write deep emotional pieces of death and suicide and start ocmplaining about shit.. this piece was jus the truth and a piece of your mind... YOUR ideas.. not what you see on the news.. and thats why its dope

    hit up that link

    I'm with Soulstice that this started slow, though a lot of ppl seem to have enjoyed the first verse and the part about the concrete jungle. I think this got better as it went along, both the flow and topic, and it really made a good point that everyone on this site can agree with. I also think the best line was the one where u said rap is dumb when your aspiring but genius when you succeed, that was just plain awesome language... Really a solid drop, I liked it, and I think you'll get a lot of positive feedback since the topic really hits home with everybody here.

    Nice job.

    damn nigga... this was needed. I haven't seen anything like this on the net, that brings to light the complete view of the shit from an emcees point of view while incorporating the thought processof the outsiders/rap haters...

    the part emphasizing the fact that rap's 'stupid' when you're an aspiring artist then admired once you make it, is beautiful.. nice work.

    this should be touched up and made into a song.

    This was a nice read bruh...

    I enjoyed the concepts here, done better than the hordes of people that attempt this sort of drop. You pulled it of pretty well, nice smooth, rhymes, nothing insane but smooth. I was feeling this, as I just came off a hip-hop culture type drop myself. So this just felt fresh in my head. good work, peep my drop
