Quote (NtG) and just a questions/suggestion.... Is the mic your recording on high quality? cuz for some reason your voice just doesnt sound crisp on those tracks, and if its not too late, i think the volume of your lyrics in zonin should be higher cool. thanks for the advice. the mic i was using for those tracks is shitty but i think i can get away with it. the mic i'm using now is expensive as fuck and super crisp and clear. you'll hear the difference when i finish your track. unfortunately, yes, it is too late with "Zonin'". i kind of like them as low as they are though it gives it a more relaxing feel. it makes it sound like the lyrics are bleeding into the beat a little bit and it helps with how smooth and relaxed it is. it's cool though. the rest of the tracks will be far more high quality.

ok, so the person who i have featuring on NtG's beat is finishing up writing his verse and i have my verse written. we haven't done anything to the beat itself yet, but i have a DJ who is decent that will probably do some live cuts for free. i still need to add the bassline but i'll probably do that later. my track on Unite C's "Heartaches & Pain" beat is now finished and also my track on El Matador's track. i still need to master them and i'm adding cuts to El Mat's beat as well as possibly getting El Mat on the hook. he heard the track already and said with my delivery, flow and lyrics, he actually likes it better than "Wargods" so we'll see. a possible title we're running with for the track is "Ledge of Sanity" (El Mat's idea). i will likely be working on a track over Unite C's "Golden Age" beat next and the beat that NtG gave me. i'm also still waiting on Andy from the YT group (YT name is lyandre1) to send me one of his beats and i'm waiting patiently for Uncharted to send me one of his beats  i may change my mind on which of his beats i want though because he's been dropping bangers lately and idk which one i want more. i can't decide between the one i said i wanted that we helped him edit, the "Giving Up" beat or his beat with the Earth Tones sample. which one should i get? anyways, i'm still looking for a name. i have allowed certain individuals hear tracks other than just the two on the first page and i'd love to hear possible names, especially from people who have heard more than just a couple of tracks.

No mixtapes. This is my first album. I'll probably put out some half assed mixtape for promotion before dropping the album though.

Quote (eboyd) i'm waiting patiently for Uncharted to send me one of his beats i may change my mind on which of his beats i want though because he's been dropping bangers lately and idk which one i want more. i can't decide between the one i said i wanted that we helped him edit, the "Giving Up" beat or his beat with the Earth Tones sample. which one should i get?
i'll sent you all the beats that you want and you could decide which to rap over. Im sorry for the inconvience, my computer time has been revoked lately by my parents (in other words im on punishment) and i'll probably wont be on the computer anytime this week b/c imma be in chicago and my dad will probably keep me busy doing other things.

ok, so i just finished writing a verse to Uncharted's "Earthtones" beat which is meant to sound sort of like a poem. i was kind of inspired by this track and i think it will sound similar: i also want to possibly ask Pensmoke if he wants to write a verse to it. also, i have Menace doing an intro speech to my "Refreshing" track and i think i have a title to my project. tell me what you guys think of "Modus Operandi" (which means "mode of operation" in Latin) for a title. it's basically like saying "i'm introducing you guys to the way i do things". while this is a very serious album, it is after all just a taste of things to come; my intro to the world of music. so based on this, i think the title is fitting. it also fits my persona as Agent X, being as that "Modus Operandi" is known as secret agent type jargon lol. i would appreciate opinions on this, whether good or bad. thanks.
