Like rap? Appreciate young white artists?

Hey guys, Jousou here. Im a fresh 18yo Coming from Oregon, i rep the 503 and i love to rap, sing, write music, and do covers of peoples songs. I got a recording of me doing the song Mirror- by Lil Wayne. Its a slower song not really hip hop, but it would mean alot if i could get some feedback and comments. love this grasscity forum sooooo much <3 By the way my rapper/street name is Echo.

listen to the song Mirror first, the other song was an entry for a rap battle competition and i beat a guy called SharkBait.

 

Cmon Blades i know you wanna liiiisten!!!

 

please somebody look at this?

 

ya i have a rockband mic plugged into my PC, i by no means have any place to hold it or keep it mounted so i constantly have to hold it, and my hands shake so its hard to keep it in one place, but ya man i cant afford those mic guards yet. The song is at the same speed it was recorded originally by lil wayne. Thanks for the feedback! I love that song too, i can really relate to it you know!


EDIT: I use Audacity and FL studio to edit and record.

 

been rapping for 7 years, i write alot, but not anymore considering alot of shit in my life, but that song isnt meant for excitement, its meant to be a dark song, it has dark lyrics, and lil waynes raspy coke voice cant put into a deep emotional feel. So when i rap i rap deep with the emotion and covers are actually great for practicing so ya. Its my first recorded un edited song so i think i did pretty damn good.




here is my own lyrical text i have saved on my computer and on a website, you might know it, my16bars.com


anyways here you go.







Another 1 gram line intensifies inside my hole infested euphoric mind
As it hits my blood stream i feel like i want to scream, maybe i want to dream
maybe for a second these *****s thought i was a dope fiend,But its the night scene
Why the fuck am i seeing purple and green solar beams. Dubstep infuses my head
Im spinnin in three worlds but in one im fuckin undead. Im climbing 250 foot trees
excited because at the top there is a never ending rope swing. FUCKIN TRIPPY
As i grab it i begin to fall beneath 666ft, The world is what im underneath!
Its dark and all i hear is the chatter of my teeth, Im in a cave, where at? beats me.
I grab my glowing sword and i un sheath, this inner beast im about to fuckin release!
Im a fucking demon, Im enraged and spittin flames sinkin jumpers like Lebron James
Im a lyrical destructionist stuck in a cage thats been set into high flames.
I promise yall i wont let ya down like Michael Jordan sellin whitey tighties for Hanes.
This is my drugcore, im a drug whore, i judge me and myself only before i hit the floor.
I got 2 best friends named Smith N Wesson, Believe me boy you dont wanna feel the aggression
I pop pills and smoke weed to kill my tension and stress, someone grant me a God bless
before i blow my high and end up in a dress, i am here for the thrill, not the success.



I say the "n" word cause it progresses emotion into things when used right, i am a quarter black and the rest white/native american. I have lighter white skin but its because my dad is light skinned and my mom is whiter than a ghost. I typically dont care if you guys dont like the word, i use it cause i want to and i can, if your white and a hater or whatever, its not about race so get over it. (just sayin =p )

 

Thats one of my favorite albums, Karunado we have alot in common, lyrically. I rap about my life and the streets and how i used to run the streets of portland with my old krew, but ive moved on from that shit and grown up, still a prodigy to my streets but i keep my flow goin for the homies, its what keeps em out of trouble ya know. My music inspires them i guess so thats what keeps me goin. My favorite song is Soundtrack to my Life on that album, Cudi really lets it go on that one. Its a shame he quit rappin =[ But ya im workin on gettin some more lyrics up on here for you. I have a feeling you will like what i got to say.

 

This one is called Risky Rhymes for Hard times. I wrote this back when i was just turning 17 (i was with my ex and we went through alot) so this one is pretty personal, i am trusting no one here will steal my bars/rhymes. I hope you all can relate to some of the stuff i put up here cause it takes alot for me to release this stuff to people. Much love guys.


If religion is a crime then its a felony to rhyme//I dont care what you believe in as long as you ain’t hatin’//Chicken little talkin’ bout how the sky is fallin’//But who is to care when all these children are starvin’//Take your heads out your asses and realize this worldy pain were causin’//These tears that everyone are crying are wasted in the end// Got rich bitches crying over a scratch on their Mercedes Benz//I feel our lyrical worship comin to an end// Click Clack goes my gun when it drops you dead, just one bullet from an Eagle straight to they heads//My rhymes are nothin old, its all new//the way i spit is fresh like a new pair of Nike shoez//Im spitin’ risky rhymes so all these rappers know im for real//I promise you im the honest ***** rhymin they swear i can Heal//I wont lie//Im not the best rapper alive//im not number one on the charts so no problems should arise//Im just here to make my name known// I even rap when im half stoned//Ill slur my words but rap hard when im sippin patron//I dont need any *****s to teach me how to dougie// Im too busy listening to my girl scream “JUST FUCK ME!”//Rapping is my escape from this worlds drama//Ill always pray to God to look over my baby mamma//

Its time to tell ya’ll a bit of my story//But be warned, these next bars aren’t filled with glory// I got my girl pregnant at the age of 14//I wasnt smart being a gangster in baggy jeans// How could I raise a daughter at 15//I didnt have a job or anything in between//So after I tried to get my shit figured out//My baby left me and I was stuck in a drought//My girl had a miscarriage and we lost our daughter//She woulda been better off with a non gangster father// I still suffer from the pain of losing my first child//I can only imagine her beautiful toothless smile// But it was time to raise my head and move on with my life// Im ganna make this beautiful girl my wife// So at 17 and living as an adult//I gatta be mature and handle life’s drastic haul//I dont want anyone to feel bad for me//I got my life handled B

 

im a quarter black, my entire family is black, i grew up in the streets, ill use whatever words i decide. If you judge someone over a word or the color of their skin without knowing them, you lose all credibility to comment.

 

And if ive shot someone in the head ever is not anyones business, what ive done or havnt done is for me to know, what i project in my lyrics is a puzzle, if your mind is strong enough to decipher it you can understand. Last year i think it was, maybe the year before, anyways, There was a competition hosted by 16bars where you send in your BEST lyrics or songs, 2 at the max, and u send them in and Eminem reviewed them and gave live feedback over stickam like 3 months after the competition cause there was so many ya know. Well he commented on my 2nd best one ( IMO ) and he said it relates to him in a way some of the others didnt, it was pretty cool but thats about all he said, i didnt win though =[ some guy who had alot of money and stuff to produce sent in his audio and won.

 

im not going to admit murder over the internet, whether i did it or not, i speak truth, ive seen more shit than you have, try growing up in LA with Tree Top Piru, i came to Oregon to live with my other family who runs Lok'd Out Piru. Dont think you know me buddy, im white dominant gene considering you get your skin color chromos from your mother, im white with black nappy hair and brown eyes. My mom is white with blue eyes and blonde hair. My dad is half black light skinned with brown eyes and nappy hair. Nuff said, if you dont know me dont get start assuming things. Ive seen murder, ive seen death, ive seen my brother get shot in the head 4 times and his brains spilled on the street, have you ever been told to take a gun and rob someone? or been told to kill someone? You havnt, so dont talk to me about that shit cause im stree tsmart considering i grew up in it. Your Assuming yet again that all music is true, eminem wrote countless songs about where he wished he was in life and some where they were a made up story. I write truth. I speak truth, I spit truth. Thats why i got people who follow me. Cause im honest and dont stretch truth nor lie

 

for some reason i HIGHLY doubt that. My uncle runs G-spot records. My cousin is co owner of Cash Money Militia Recording studio in LA where about %70 percent of mainstream rappers that your hearing on the radio record at. Dont get at me about music industry when i grew up in it, my brother who got shot, Marcus Gundon, he was know in the underground biz as Young Gun. Look those mixtapes up. He was offered a $850,000 contract when he was 18, but we were mixed up in gang shit and he made a mistake that got him killed infront of me.... im pretty sure i know what im talking about. If u dont like my music or what i project then leave, dont comment. Its simple, dont flame my topic with bullshit and argue with me.
