He's been an aspiring rapper for several years, and has steadily been getting his name out there. I'm proud of him. His alias is Nick Nubz (due to a deformity in his right hand, if you're curious). His part comes in around 2:30.

I really like the beat and melody...

Second verse was the best but this was pretty good, I like the instrumental quite a bit. I might check out his album tomorrow since its on Spotify and 26 minutes is a light investment even if I end up not liking it

Main dude is alright, nothing special though and doesnt have that spark. Just kinda feels flat.

2nd dude was good, I could listen to him.

3rd dude, was okay. I think trying too hard or I dont know, it wasnt awful but definitely can tell he can be better.

LOL... Usually when rappers talk about money and cars they actually have it like that.. you can say some people lie about killing people but you look at this video and these guys are clearly lying about everything... They dont even have the money to rent a vehicle and pretend like they own it.... Cant even hire some THOT models to pretend like they get girls.

Weak... Lies... Lame...

One of Eminem's best tracks in his early days was a song where he murdered his wife.

Another one was where he rapped about being an extraterrestrial running over pedestrians screaming let's just be friends.

If one of the most popular rappers ever can rap about fictional nonsense, I think rapping about cars and shit isn't much a big deal lol.

Theres a difference between fictional nonsense that is supposed to be fiction vs lying about shit and trying to get people to believe that you actually have a lifestyle that you dont actually live.

This dudes cousin is rapping about ripping womens guts out (fucking them), shooting porn videos and the war in his hood... Dude wants you to believe hes hooking up with a bunch of women and hes on some gang shit but its so painfully obvious that hes not about that life AT ALL.

So ONE set of fictional is okay, but the other is not because...it isn't supposed to be taken seriously? It sounds like you're bitching about nothing.

Yes.... Saying Im an alien from another planet is cool because it can be a metaphor that people can relate to.

Saying Yo yo yo Im a gangster and I have a ton of money and cars and I fuck women and I go to war selling drugs in my hood yo dont fuck with me or Ill shoot you is lame as fuck coming from a guy who probably jerks off, gets no bitches, is broke and drives a used Toyota and lives in the suburbs.

What about the one where he kills his wife? Can people relate to that?

No, but its something that people obviously know is fake going into it... Eminem is not LITERALLY trying to convince you that it actually happened.

Wannabe gangsters like TCs cousin are trying to convince you that they are something that theyre not... Its not intended to be taken as fiction.

Who cares if it was literal? Other than you. It's a song, made to be something to listen to and enjoy.

But, through all this, I'm wondering why you care so much that he's not being truthful. What if this was purely audio? Would you suddenly have this clarity?

Nobody enjoys this... If they did, TCs cousin wouldnt be an aspiring rapper; he would be an actual rapper making a living doing music.

Yes I would still know its fake because TCs cousin cant rap for shit... He couldnt even rhyme for less than a minute without throwing in pointless ad-libs and tried to rhyme food with good.

Embarrassing.

I think it's more embarrassing getting mad over someone not adhering to your rules of rap on a dying message board on the internet, but hey. Opinions. Lol.

People have to start somewhere. Rapping isnt just about talent. It takes work. Instead of just flaming the entire time, how about giving out real advice on how to improve and what you would like to see. You just sound like a pure hater which doesnt benefit anyone except your ego

Eminem's Infinite album was one that he sold from the trunk of his car and was a massive failure, breaking about 1k in sales. He recorded it in a basement 'recording studio'.

Eminem made no real money off Infinite. Some of his lyrics included: "Fuck around and catch all of the venereal diseases". He was married to Kim Mathers at the time. The song that particular line is from is considered to be the best off the entire album, and receives praise quite often.

I never accused you of gatekeeping either. You did that yourself lol.

Yeah, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. It takes a lot of work to make it in the music industry unless you get a lucky break early on.

Kendrick Lamar was just a "YouTube rapper" until he got signed to a major label. He still did shows and opened for more famous artists, but he was rapping for years before he got signed. His first mixtape was released in 2004 and his debut album under a label, wasn't until 2012.
