Post "Save Thyself"...new Gospel rap joint...def. consider please

IP: 64CA 6C26

http://www.soundclick.com/qakaprox


^Click on "Save Thyself"


Beat: Perpetual productions, which incidentally produced the beats for all of my gospel raps

Intro sample: An actual recording of the original gospel song "Save THyself" that inspired me to make this rap version. Props to Minister Cynthia Guinn and her family for producing that song so long ago.

Hook: Written and performed by Q. The words sung in the background, "Save Thyself, tomorrow may just be too late" are from a gospel song that I heard as a kid in church.

**^^That brings me to the history of this track. One day that hook just popped up on my head. I layered it in the background and decided to rap over it. Sometimes it takes 2-3 listens to fully grasp the hook. I hope you all enjoy it.


Verses 1 & 2: Tha Q

**Enygma is hoping on a remix of this, which will be the same except the 2nd verse will be his. The same has already been done with Jay286. Ennui will probably hop on a version of this as well.



Concept: As the title says, "Save Thyself"...save yourself by turning from destructive ways and acknowledge God in your life.



Hatas need not apply.


Holla atcha boy

Listening...

Intro is nice. Bad quality, but still good.

Hook is nice. Really feeling it actually. The beat is fitting for this track.

Verses...nice and fast flow. Lyrics are nice, deep, and meaningful. It makes me really think actually..maybe I gotta turn my life around.

Nice track man.

One of your best yet.

I feel that when you are writing about somthing that you are really passionate about.. or somthing that means alot to you the overall outcome of the song is so much better than if it was just some random rhymes your putting together...on that note..

hook that comes in at first...i didnt really hit me at the beginin... but then on the second and third hooks...i started to really like the way you put it together....
the hook...is decently catchy....this is not my type of song... but the hook pretty much paints a picture of what your tryna say...

1st verse..this is hot... flow is really sweet... like its pretty hype for bieng a gospel songs... had some pretty ill lyrics in this... first verse was pretty good

2nd.. verse i like this verse better than the first you killen it with the multis near the end... a lil slip up on flow but thats nothing.....damn... i cant bieleve i just played this gospel song like three diffrent times...

what i said at the top comes in here... because this is prolly one of the best songs of yours in my opinion... not the best.. but one of em......hard work on this one kid..

9/10

Intro sample does a really good job of preparing me for the track..

Beat comes in nice, and I'm loving this hook. I know you put alot into it, and it reflects it. This is really nice work bro...

Verse comes in, flow is on point, presence is no doubt felt...Feeling the quick flow...

Also, I'm feeling the whole concept/message you had in this song. Deep shit man.

Overall, really good job on this.

Sorry it took me a lot of time to get to this............

Man this beat is sick, it fits the sample, and so does the chorus that you came wit. Really good message throughout. Your transition in your flow was very precise and clear, especially on the second verse. This is a very incouraging song, especially for me. I wish it was longer. It seemed that it just cut off in the middle of no where. THats the only draw back. Otherwise, solid, track with a heavy meaning.

9/10
