    WIth your paragraph of introduction, I'm afraid to listen to it, afraid that some comment I may make would carelessly set you wrong emotionally. Hope the song succeeded -- maybe you could tell us some more about it, what you want comments about?

    hi tha duce,
    don't know the genre all that well .
    the reverse vox (?) at ) :12 obscures the first
    line and doesn't really add all that much. the lyrics
    at 1:00 .. i don't get really.
    "hold each other through the night" .. well .. she's
    married with kids ... i'm wondering how this works....
    sample at 1:46 (repeated elsewhere should get re-done)
    lyrics at 2:12 are nice .. it feels personal at this point and
    the situation becomes more real .. it's almost hypothetical
    up this point.
    at 3:09 .. ' please tell me what i want to hear " this
    part confuses me just as you're setting up to break up .. i'd
    emote a bit more at 3:20 in .. it's almost non-chalant sounding
    and i don't that was your intent.

    it's a bit long .. i think you could compress it down to 3:00 and
    keep the interest level up on it ......

    nice beat to it ...
    jeff
    ps: that studio picture on your MP3 site looks like Skywalker....

    Hi Tha Duce,

    feels good to hear a different musical style at this forum.

    IMHO a bit of variation is needed. That arpeggio goes the whole song through. That's a bit grating. What about a real breakdown?

    I like that voice sample, or what ever this is.

    Maybe you could try to rap a bit cooler?

    What up Duce?
    I think this is one of your better tracks. We should make some more contact, but here are the comments:

    Your delivery sounds more polished and well recorded.
    Would sound good if that synth showed up during a verse to add a little variety.
    The female vocals are a little distracting. Mixed too hot?

    Without commenting on the moral implications of the content, it's good to hear a variety of subject matter. Good job!

    Fantastic. Really loved this one ... it's the intelligent "reflection of mainstream life" side of rap that all people can identify with. I don't even like this genre, and yet could not bring myself to stop media player. I have nothing but praise for this one - lyrically, melody, production. It all works for me. You sound good.

    Best.
