  3. That Double X guy was on the best beat and probably had the 2nd best flow with Rashad 1st but again the swag game needs to stepped up.

    And none of these songs were about bitches, weed, cars or a combination of all three. I have to say this is very disappointing.

  18. 1. Rashad

    that’s my order of preference, definately keep posting from all of these guys because they all make quality music that a good percentage of the people on this website will enjoy. and seriously, upcomers like them need exposure like this

  21. Hello everyone….OMG ,My friend Rachal, a 33 yrs lady, has announced her wedding with an excellent man. It’s amazing, she said she just posted her profile on an interrcial community called~
    ~~ IntiMateMingle /C óM ~~~ – and received his chat invitations a few days later. Then, everything went so well that I can’t believe it’s true! Every love story will unfold on it’s own—Like seriously? You have a CHOICE to be on an airplane. The comparison ends there.

    Guapo said this on May 26th, 2011 at 1:04 am

  29. i like the change of pace that Double X shows, smooth, laid-back flow which isn’t super lyrical but had depth and message on a crazy (Self-produced) beat.

    Will said this on May 26th, 2011 at 1:07 am

    J said this on May 26th, 2011 at 2:30 am

  38. SHAKE & MEKA, you guys should try have DOPE/NOPE buttons on every track. Also, try put up their individual websites/twitter under the track so we can follow them and see their progression.

    Just some feedback for y’all.
    Cheers

  51. All these cats on here dope.

    1.Marc
    2.rashad
    3.sidewalk chalk
    4.Double x

    in that order

    Sonny said this on May 26th, 2011 at 1:01 pm

  52. Rashad – Best overall. Effortless flow. The production had integrity. And he’s from NY (I’m not, so it’s no bias), but it adds some pedigree and lends its self to the energy in the song.

    Sidewalk Chalk – Really fresh and original music that sounds like it would actually have some replay value. The guy who was rapping reminds me a lot of TiRon,..no surprise there since they’re “from” Chi-town area.

    Marc Antoni – Beat was dope. Lyrics were decent (I’m assuming he was the first guy) but his flow sounded borrowed, dis-ingenuine, and forgettable. Hook made me cringe a little. Laws x Theo don’t +/- anything since they’re “established” already.

    Double X – Smooooooooooth production and I can appreciate the positive message. Obviously he can rap. Biggest problem: He lacks charisma, and lets face it, that matters.

    D.ynamic said this on May 26th, 2011 at 2:10 pm

  53. WOW way to blow my muthafuckin dreams of getting on here….This a good look for all these artist peace and prosperity to you all…I honestly believed if they heard my shit it would be fuckin undeniable …guess ya’ll ain’t listen to the music you just SKIM through it..

    pHoenix Pagliacci said this on May 28th, 2011 at 3:57 am

  75. Double X is actually a really legit MC. His live shows are dope and his videos are sick too. He is also actually a real genuine cat too. Much love for 2Dbz for putting him on! Keep it up Double X
