Wolfie's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Duh, Duh. (UNMIXED)]

Solid beat here, B. I know it's unmixed and all, and this was just a quick track meant for practice, so I don't wanna go and give too many suggestions or anything.

But, that said, I thought the first half of the beat was nice; that vocal sample was pretty catchy and it sounds easy to rap to. However, I was't really feeling the second half of the track; it wasn't bad or anything, but I feel like the energy got brought down, if you get what I'm saying. It'd have been cool if it kept the same energy it had throughout the first half.

Other than that, it was a solid track. I'm listening to cheap headphones, so I can't really critique the mixing (and it's unmixed, anyways, so it'd be silly to judge that, anyways). Again, sounds easy enough to rap to, sounds decent just as an instrumental, too. Good work!

bpleez responds:

thanks i totally understand that. only added in the slow vocal mix at the end just so people would know what i mixed, but it does bring down the track definitely.

[HDC: Doc vs. Rezzy Tip]

I like Doc, so I'm very eager to hear his battles, to hear his improvement and all that. He definitely kicked it up a notch since his battle with War Spawn, so he gets respect for that.

Both brought the personals, so this battle was pretty good in the lyrics category. However, I do think that Rezzy brought more intensity to the battle (at least on his first verse). I would give the first verse to Rezzy Tip, and the second was more or less even. Also, did Doc punch-in in his second verse, after his Amanda Todd line?

Either way, I'd give this to Rezzy. But again, good job to Doc. He did better than last time.

Also, that outro is the greatest thing I've ever heard.

HDC responds:

Rezzy -6 Cerebro-1

[HDC: MC-OG vs. Star69]

I don't want to make a big detailed review, so I'll try to be brief.

MC-OG's should've done a re-take on his first verse. It was hard to hear some of his lines halfway through because his enunciation wasn't as strong. His second one was real good though, so props for that. Star had a consistent flow and delivery, but I don't think his lyrics were better than MC-OG's (I would've preferred more lines like that Special Olympics flip and less lines like the 'I'm calling Nicole, getting some tonight" or whatever).

I've been meaning to sit down and really give an in-depth review, but I don't want to drag this out anymore. This was generally even, but I'll give it to OG for his lyrics.

HDC responds:

OG 3 Star 4

[Teq Vs Ax 3steylebattelll]

This is entertaining, so I say we're all winners here. Good work, you two!

AxTekk responds:

Obama - 332 Romney - 206

[HDC:MC OG vs. RezzyTip]

This is a hard battle to vote for. I think OG's first verse was VERY good, kept it relevant and had very good flow. Unfortunately, his second verse wasn't as great (his flow wasn't as on point, and the lyrics weren't too strong). Rezzy was consistent in terms of flow all the way through, but I wasn't as impressed with his lyrics (some lines had good flow, but didn't really sound personal to me). I will say I dug the little hints of anger in Rezzy's second verse though. It made his verse sound even better.

I think it was a pretty even match, so I wanna call it a tie. Since I gotta vote though, I'd go with MC OG due to the strength of his first verse. I really enjoyed this battle though, so good job to both!

HDC responds:

Rezzy-2 OG-1

[HDC in Paris]

My verse is still mixed a bit off beat (which is my fault, sorry, Bummer), but this is still one of my favorite collaborations. Good work, everyone!

BummerCityTown responds:

Yeah sorry bout that Wolf. :( I'm gonna fix that and a couple things on Chile's, and mine is off by a split second as well. (I suck) But yeah, epic track!!

[HDC: Byron vs. FatBeats]

I find it hard to vote on battles like these cuz I don't think either of you guys were trying to be serious. Sounds like you two were just having fun lol. And let me just say, I was entertained.

Regardless, it's a battle, so I gotta cast a vote. Here are my thoughts. Spawn is right about that reverb in FB's first verse; it would've been better for him to take it off. And then when he does drop it in the second verse, he gets sloppy, and it makes it harder to understand him (although, it sounds like this verse has a different EQ setting than the first; maybe that had something to do with it?). Byron, on the otherhand, sounded consistent.

Lyrically, it wasn't all that impressive (but again, I don't think you two were trying to be super serious). FB even throws away his last two bars to blow raspberries. Milkdud brought his A-game though.

I'd think give my vote to Byron. But again, this just seemed like a fun battle, nothing serious. So yeah, I liked it. Good job to both!

And I'll be the first to admit that after listening to this on repeat for awhile, I actually felt like rapping to the beat, too...

HDC responds:

Byron - 3 Fat Beats -0 MilkDud -5

[HDC: Xstatyk vs Mao]

Quick things to note:
- I thought Xstatyk had the better flow, but he just needed to bring some enthusiasm to the battle. It kinda sounds like he's just reading off his page of lyrics or something. Once he's got that down, though, he'll be set, I think.
- Like others might think, I also believe Mickey's flow to be hit or miss (sometimes it's sloppy, sometimes it's good). Honestly, I didn't think it was that bad on this particular track, but even so, I suppose it'd be a good idea to keep this in mind to try to better himself in later works.

About the battle itself, I think it was generally pretty even. If I had to vote, I think I'd had to give the vote to Mao, just because he, I think, had better lyrics and actually sounded engaged.

Good job to Xstatyk, too, though. I'm eager to see how much he improves in the next couple of weeks!

HDC responds:

Mao -2 Xstat-1

[BGS]

The first song I heard on your EP. Very good! I'd probably dance to this if I could.

BummerCityTown responds:

Hahah Thanks dude!! I dance to it all the time :)
