More Powerful

I was back to old home of Portland, OR visiting and old friend and enjoying lots of craft beer this weekend, and we (barely) found some time to pull this together late Friday night - I put down a beat on the Push and MC MOB was on the mic. He usually freestyles, but in this case he wrote out some lyrics before laying them down. He rapped a few takes, but I just took the best sounding one (it was the first or second) rather than taking time to pull bits and pieces from all the takes). I found an hour or so after returning home Sunday to do a little arrangement and edit to clean up a little. The vocal track had some noise, I corrected most with a gate (which was new to me so I learned something!) but still has a little. This could use more polish (I would love to add variation to the drums and add a different bass-line, maybe in addition to the sub bass that's in there now) but hey, weekly beats, spontaneous and fun!

Nice fun sound.  I like the little instrumental breaks.  I could see a little polish doing some cool things, but the simple beat sounds cool as is.

these beats are so fresh, A+++++++++++

Awesome, thanks! Glad you like it.

This Track is killer!
I love the raw sound... reminds me to "Eric B. & Rakim"
The beat and the selected drum sounds are superb.
And the synths parts give me this oldschool hihop feeling.
And MC MOB rapped like a GOD wink

Thanks so much! What a cool, flattering comment, I appreciate that and I'm glad you dug our attempt to make a decent track!
