Not sure how tolerant the forums here are to rap, but in case anyone is here to flame a "white rapper", here is my history, skip it if you don't give two shits.

I began in 9th Grade writing, and it was a joke with my friends, thus the name "Icepick", also originated as a joke.
In 10th grade a couple friends pushed me to write again, and I did, because I began to really get into the genre.
I like the beats, and the lyricism that was potent in the early 2000s.
I released a solo produced, solo marketed album in my high school my senior year and sold it to people for $5.
I got a lot of positive feedback, pushing me to make a Youtube account and a Facebook/Myspace page.
I am in the midst of making a second solo produced album, and am aiming to release sometime within the next couple months.
My skills with Audacity have improved greatly from the first CD, and my rhymes/lyrics have more meaning that I've drawn from real life.
My old CD is not uploaded in full anywhere, but my Myspace has my older stuff on it as I haven't updated it in awhile
Anyway, my raps are done for mostly for fun, for my friends, I'm fromCincinnati (Yeah, our sports teams blow. I don't watch them), and you can see that influence in some of my raps.
I've covered some songs, and done my own lyrics to the popular Black and yellow by Wiz Khalifa
My raps are mostly about made up shit, because I came from a nice neighborhood, lead a good life, up until about the last year when shit started hitting the fan with college, my now ex girlfriend, etc.
So it has given my inspiration and meaning behind my lyrics.
But I also keep it light in most of my raps.

Anyway, check it out, any feedback on my FB wall, or posted here, is SUPER appreciated.
Open to all constructive criticism, especially helpful ideas for audacity, and stupid flaming remarks will be tossed to the side with a grain of salt. I've heard it all trying to come up, but I think white rappers are more accepted now.
I think it's worth mentioning this has all been recorded on a $6 computer mic as well, not a nice studio mic.
Anyway, on with the goods.

You sound too lazy and nasaly for me.

Yeah x] about a year ago I was looking on Myspace and youtube and saw this Band had the same name I took up in 9th grade.
Definitely NOT the same kind of music, nor did I intend to rip a name >.<
Happens, I suppose.

XD yeah...I recorded the last...3 or so songs/videos over winter break, and I had a wicked cold. Thanks
I know it's an area to work at when I'm all good

Icepick is so fucking good. It's the vocalists from Hatebreed and Skarhead. NY style hardcore and metal.

XD once again, not the same. >.<

you spit way to slow... shits just bad no offense

i mean i listen to some slow spitters (Cassidy and shit)

you should at least have some heavy punchlines or some crazy lyrics if your gonna rap that slow

I mean, the rap is more hip-hop style tempo
To be good doesnt mean you have to be fast XD
But I get what you're saying

im not sayn it has to be fast

but your not even on beat... you should of least went accapella

i dont mind slow rapping but if your going that slow and i cant even jam to beat im just waiting for lyrics

so i would like to hear some nice lines if i cant even nod my head to it

but at least your rapping man keep doin ur thing
