    I don't know what to say other than that I thoroughly enjoyed watching this as I did your last. Your presence and overall performance makes it very enjoyable to watch, looks like something I wouldn't mind experiencing live. Just wanted to reply and let you know I checked it out...

    I enjoyed this, I thought you did a good job, kept a steady pace and acted your words. I heard a good use of langauge and you held the crowd with your words and even gained the odd clap from your listeners.



    never thought you'd miss the blueprints in my eyes.

    It is much harder than it looks...I think you could have had a little more emphasis, instead of the pause you could add some breaker lines...a quick rant of high rhyme quick syllable count...to "wow" the crowd...the crowd is usually nieve so, they don't really hear everything...u feel me...by the intellectual approach that always helps just to engage them...at least from my experience...I think it could balance the very difficult scheme you had...because it literally took 3 or 4 times over to really get the gist of some of the word play. and they dont have that option you know...I still think this was stellar and enjoyed it alot, just handing out a suggestion...keep doin u bro congrats

    Both of these were raw. Some multi's in there were sweeeet and most of the lines were pretty dope, ie humans resiliance. Lastly, the theme was pretty cool of how science does not apply to all.

    Nice performance
