Lyrics are sweet an the beat is decent. I left you a comment on Youtube but forgot to mention Good Luck in it so... good luck!!!

I'll record mine later and up tomorrow or later ATS

Rap?
Isn't that the biggest contributing factor to the dumbing down of America?

Sorry but what a dissapointment to see this on ATS.
Last time I looked up the definition for Rap I discovered it stood for "Retards Attempting Poetry"

Wow, that is perhaps the most ignorant statement I've seen on ATS.

My apologies for your lack of tolerance.

Congratulations on being the first entry. Good attempt too.

Has there been any headway on finding an alternative download for the beats?

I think using beats outside the three provided is cool and all, but it goes against the nature of the contest to a degree.

I think that the 'deadline' should get pushed back until it gets figured out....

edit to add: Could they just be posted as ats podcasts?

It does say at the top of this thread that you can use your own beats aslong as your rapping about ATS'esque subjects. I suppose the beats are just provided incase nobody has there own originals to rap to. Oh and thanks for the love guys its appreciated

I was wondering if this still applies?

Hey, not to sound petty, but I was the first entry all the way on page one.

Normally being looked over wouldn't bother me, but from a Moderator?

My self-esteem is hurting over here.


Also, I'm not a garageband member and I downloaded those tracks. Not sure what the problem everyone seems to be having is. I just pushed the download button. Just letting everyone know its possible.

YOOOO klev...good lookin out on the heads up man i been away for awhile lol but im back now...and this is just what i needed. keep yall ears open i will try and impress =P

Okay, I figured out the issue I was having. I kept trying to download track 1, which apparently is considered 'featured' and unable for me to download. ilike(?) seems to be connected to garageband, and presented the information in a clearer manner.

The other beats seem to download fine for me.

On the contrary my man, I think its rather disappointing AND sad to see someone like you on ATS. Don't you have something better to do...like go into a crowded room full of blacks and holler "I hate n*****s" or something?

I think its funny that you made your little comment from the comfort of your computer. I doubt you'd have the balls to say it in a room full of real rappers, lest you get your weak chin manhandled and dropped on your head.

With that said, great contributions so far guys. I am down for extending the contest too because I will not be here on the 15th. I will U2U kleverone about this.

Wheres my royalty check(cupCAEKS?!?! are accepted)? this is a rip of the Lysergical Challenge! HA! I kid, I kid!

This oughta be fun, I know there is some talent here on ATS so I'll be listening.

ps: I hope no british rappers are allowed to enter, bwahahaha!

To any of the mods, does this statement still hold true?

reply to post by astronomine


Yes it does. Two categories. Entries recorded onto the songs and entries submitted via text.

It was noticed....excellent work, and I am not typically a rap fan. I was impressed with the flow of lyrics.

Seriously, man...nicely done...

reply to post by Mad_Hatter


Thank you

does anyone have any comments or criticisms about my songs? I would love feedback, ...

Has anyone even listened to them?

Just wondering.. I've never really have many people listen to it before so comments are always welcome (please don't be mean)....

Does anyone know if entrys have to be in by midnight tonite? Or do we have till tomorrow to enter?
