Just thinking about my feeble attempts to make music back then.

Back in highschool like 9 years ago i would be using an Xbox 360 mic thats plugged into the controller which is plugged into the laptop to lay down vocals over pirated beats using audacity. Sounded like ass. Oh man, I thought I went in over the A milli beat like I was hard. I still keep a copy of the attempt my friend and I did over the binary star - reality check.

Just something funny to look back and at and reminisce. Although I think cyphers are still fun.

Back in high school, I didn't want to be a rapper, but after going to my first real party. There was a guy who got drunk and kept spouting Shakespeare's crappy poetry, but he kept doing it for so long that after party I started to write poetry, but more modern stuff.

I continued through my junior year in high school writing and writing. Now my poetry stretched into short stories, but one day when I invited my friends over to my house a buddy of mine found my book that had a lot of my poems then he said, "Mike, you should be a rapper these look like lyrics and sounds like them."

So I started doing simple flows and writing lyrics or at least trying while my friend tapped on his notebook to provide a beat, but nothing ever came from it and ended up dropping lyrics to write novels.

To this day, I still dabble in lyrics but not that much.

My cousin and his group of friends went through that phase for 16 years. They did horror rap, dressed up in face paint, made videos in someone's basement, and played shows at the local bars.
It was awful.

I didn't really want to pursue a career, but me and my froenda definitely made some cringey efforts at rapping when I was younger. I still laugh/block out the memories.

I definitely went through that phase, made a bunch of songs, even played shows. I was never successful at it, but I also never got any negative feedback. Mostly people just told me that I'm way better at rapping than I look like I should be lol

I still write a little, but I haven't recorded anything in a few years. I briefly came out of retirement to play a Halloween show last year.

I'll get back to it one day...hopefully. I just feel kinda lost on it. I'd be curious to hear you on A Milli though, MT lol.

I think I can write ok. It's just the actual rapping part that's a bit cringe. Like zero charisma and I think my voice sounds like a nerd trying to force too much into one bar.

You an alt?

@M_Live
I listened up to out the bottle and you definitely dont fit the bill of someone who went through a phase since you actually sound like you know what you're doing. I did enjoy what i heard man. Keep making more music.

@eston
Yea, you dont sound like a black man lol but i enjoyed your music too actually. While not professional its got charm and you definitely have some skill there. The flow on rugged contest was dope. The hook though hahaha.

I wanna read it!

I feel you on the voice. I admittedly used to change it up a little.

I havent written anything in years. I remember showing you some poetry i wrote way back when. I only really used it as a way to cope through some mental health shit i went through. It's a bit dark.

Uuuuuuhhhhn son!!! That was good man. You can flow and I like your voice. It was really old school sounding. It reminded me of a less vulgar Big L track. Not gonna lie, I'm a little inspired to get back on it. Haven't written in a while. But thanks for sharing.

Really? Wow dude, I didn't think I'd get positive feedback on it. I guess it's true when they say you're your worst critic. It's from a rap duo named binary star. Track is called reality check on Masters of the universe album.

Rapping is fun though. I kinda feel inspired to try again and improve on that. I think now that I'm older, I'd know what to look for to better the skill set.

I've heard you rap before and you're solid too. Glad I could inspire you
