[Nights Like This]

Dope. Nice free verse, solid bar drop. Both dropping lyrical (place holder) with deep and clever wordplay.

[The Crazies]

Slayin it. Good to hear ya rapping, it's been a long minute since I've hear sick tracks for ya. Keep up

VicTheRapper responds:

Thanks a lot man. How you been?

[Worst Day Since Thursday]

This is good. Verses are on point and hit some relevant AF hits while still maintaining that Teqneekee wordplay. Imagery shines here for ya." I put a cigarette backwards in my mouth and it burnt my lip" "I’m lookin' at my door and noticin’ an eviction notice is lookin' back". Flow was a bit rushed on some those multi syllable words near the beginning of some bars. I thoroughly enjoyed the 4th wall break in the last verse about the chorus/bridge. My issue with the chorus/bridge is:"It’s the worst day since the first day that the curse came//
…It’s the worst day since Earth Day, //" I think these lines are forced and disrupt the pattern; you go through days of the week, then jump to biblical references and hippy talk, Kinda spurious In my opinion. But ya, this is a dope track.

Teqneek responds:

Thanks Mickey. I want to be your friend I hope you know that.

[𝓌𝑒 𝑔𝑜𝓉 𝒶 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝑔𝑜𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝑜𝓃 ~wgatgo~]

wow, I'm really like the spacey vibes and that hard bass, and the transitions work so well. Very well put together piece.Wow, props Zooloo!

Xorberax responds:

Thank you

[Maple Syrup (Remix)]

Pretty good. Lyrics and rhyme on point AF, nothing unusual there. "To be subtle or to be brutally blatant//to tip toe through life or quake and shake the pavement//" loving the juxtaposition and contrast in the imagery here. The reverb on the vocs is brutal tho, makes the lyrics a muddled. I would have liked the hear more interaction with the vocal samples, especially at the mid point.
Solid track through, looking forward to hearing another remix sometime in the not to distant future?

[Over Egypt Demo]

Love this. It's got a very obscure narrative, but the flow and exquisite rhyme schemes make it all work. Really like the dynamic flow and change ups with the impromptu-ish chorus bars. Has a dope freeverse vibe to it. Mixing/sound quality on your vocs is off, but audibility isn't too bad.

Good listens here!

supafreshpjs responds:

Ayyyy thanks mick you the man

[Bouncing Off of People BOP]

Wow, that is some crazy flash picking there! Damn man, impressive! Always good to hear from ya!

LyRikLyNkLyNd responds:

It's a torture of passion

[Monica]

Teddy Graham's beat is elegant and bumping. 5/5 stars for Teddy's superb beat.

Teqneek...I apologize in advance for this, but...
This is just low and petty. From the repetitive and simple lyrics to the squeaky singing, this just felt cheap. The "wordplay" on Monica, (which you delivered with a softer "g" sound instead of the phonetic "cK" sound), wow, smh, grow up. At first I thought this was a real yet corny as fuck love song, but once I stopped reading those rap-a-dappy lyrics, and started listening...I realized, this is just an excuse. Congrats on the genius wordplay, buddy! Way to beat it like a dead horse.

+The mixing sounds good. I just listened through laptop speakers tho.
+basic song structure sounds aight, verses transition into hooks well.

Teqneek responds:

Not once did I pronounce Monica with a G. That is dumb and your laptop speakers are playing with your absolutely humorless mind.

I'd go on but it's not worth the effort. You're a pro troll and I must resist. Ughhh

[Golden Rule]

this is dope, nice variations throughout, loving it

Libby-Shimmz responds:

Thanks Mao!

[DJ Ses ft. JohnyTiger - Feed The Wolves (Produced By JohnyTiger)]

Dope production. The chorus was aight, but left some room for something more. First verse was very dope and flow'd well with that instrumental section. 2nd verse was interesting and added some eclectic flavour to this. But, the clash in such diverse vocal delivery styles seems far too abrupt and sporadic. Maybe adding some elements of Tiger's vocal approach to the hook might make it flow smoother.
