I give it a 9 to break the chain of 8's~
I'm normally not a hiphop person at all. Really. You give me some techno/dance and I'll rock your world.
But this stuff is real man. The lyrics are good, and the beat and instruments go with what you're trying to say.
I do have to criticize the voice recording... It's a bit too clear. perhaps you could change the voice recording to a .wav file, and important into your synth or mixing software and add reverb or something? It just seems a bit flat that's all. Your song is very smooth, some reverb and the vocal's should be right along with it.
Intro is to die for~ You really spoke with the tone and beat as well as your lyrics.
