Subject: NEW Shit! from the Rockwell Crew Thu 20 Jan 2011, 3:22 am
This a track we, the Rockwell Crew (Kid Prodigy, J.Carnage & Mic Killa), just recorded tonight (our first new track in nearly a year) to Dr. Dre's "Big Ego's" instrumental. G-Oz who is referred and alluded to in the song was a founding member of the Rockwell Crew who passed away about 3 years ago. Kid Prodigy has the first verse, J.Carnage is on the second, and I'm on the third. What y'all think?

The first rapper was decent, flow a lil choppy but i appreciate the real talk and strong lyrics...The second rapper has a better flow and delivery, all of the vocals need to be lowered cuz theyre crazy loud and sound like theyre clipping a lil, his verse was hot tho very smooth....Your flow isn't bad, you get a lil stuck in tho, need a switchup....I like the lyircs tho very creative and real talk, not bad guys better mixing and a lil better delivery from the first guy and u'd be str8..keep it up man

Hey thanks for the feedback LivenLearn, the praise and criticism are both much appreciated. To be honest I was excited about the track (because we hadn't recorded in a minute), so I didn't take the time to do the mixing like i should have, but I'll relay the advice to the 1st dude and use your advice to me.

Dope stuff thelundquist! I'm glad you fella's recorded a new track, your crew definitely sounds good together. I co-sign Livenlearn's assesment of the vocals sounding louder then the actual track, but if you are recording with a turntable and mic 99% of the time its going to sound like that. Thanks for sharing!
Peace

This is nice. Can't decide what verse was my favorite, but J. Carnage was disappointing after hearing Kasady state of mind, lol. But still good.
Good that u are recording again, u sound good together like Arokone said. But do u guys have a producer? Find a producer and then group is complete.

Thanks PKT, I'm pretty proud of this track, but yeah on Kasady State of Mind, J. Carnage was on that other other shit lol, he's got more stuff like that in store though trust me lol.
That has been our major issue from the start is that we don't have a producer, so we don't have original beats or our own sound or anything. I tried to learn how, but I just didn't have the talent for it. We are still looking though.

Also, J didn't write this verse... he Jay-Z'd it. Just forgot to mention that the first time.
