Song: Flowers While Livin

Positive Comments: I enjoyed this tune a lot. As i’ve been reviewing random hip hop cuts as they come, I’ve come across a lot of artists that are really trying to sound like what’s current, or what’s on the charts right now. A lot aren’t making hip hop for the love of hip hop, and your track has the flow, lyricism, the unique hook, and the 90’s boom bap feel that adds a level of sincerity, which I personally really dig. I think if you got the flow and the ear for hooks/beats, which you have, you could be part of some of the new wave cats bringing back the true of essence hip hop.
Constructive Comments: The only criticism I have for the cut is that the beat needs a little bit more depth– I feel that because your lyrical chops are quite strong, I felt the beat got a little bit redundant. I think the hook would be the perfect time to break the instrumental down, and bring something on the beat to make the overall track more in tune with what I perceive as an unorthodox approach, and an eclectic and hip hop purist’s style. Felt the tune cut a little short, but that could also be because i was genuinely wanting to hear more of the track.
