Re: We Are Back
Well looky here, illestlyrics is (kind of) here. I just happened to drop in today after years of it never crossing my mind, and it seems it both died and tried to come back to life. If this gets back to life, I may try to find my way back here occasionally.

Re: Take You There - LivenLearn Feat. IntrinsicCadence
Appreciate the feedback on this one ya'll. I love this track.
I've been gone from illest for quite a while, but I'm gonna start trying to drop in more often.

Re: Riggz Is Now The Topical Champion
Congrats Riggz, well deserved... But I'll definitely be aiming to claim it from you eventually, so keep ahold of it until then...

Re: Ejaculating Masochists (E-Makulate Metaphorz Diss)
Appreciate the feed fellas. I'd agree with you all that the punches are usually pretty weak, purposefully haven't really gained experience in that particular area of writting and emceeing, but maybe, just maybe, I'll undertake an occasional text battle to change that a bit.

Re: Rhythm Of My Life (1 Of The Last 2 Songs I'm Posting!!!!
Damn good, this is def up there among my top two or three fav of what I've heard from you. The lyrics in this are def the highlight for me, easy to sink into in a real reflective way. The kinda hip-hop I'd listen to regularly. I didn't like the 'rhythm of the night' intro though, when the beat first...

Re: i dont have a studio
This wasn't bad man. Def too short, but you got a pretty good delivery style and your flow connects as my ear hoped it would. You should put some more focus on a full length song and post it up in here, I'd like to hear what you could come up with if you put some more focus on it...

Re: MONEY FT ANONIMOUS
Your gettin' better at flowin with the beat, still has some room for improvement, but hearin definite progress on that front. But you've gotta find some better shit to talk about, more meaningful and/or personal etcetcetc. The shallow lyrics baskin' in materialistic nothingness makes me wanna punch ...

Ejaculating Masochists (E-Makulate Metaphorz Diss)
So I don't even know if Noble and Riggz are really part of E.M., since I haven't seen any evidence, so this is pretty much just aimed at Jack and Quix. This is actually the first text battle verse I've ever written (not including topicals of course). _____ E-makulate Metaphorz be lackin' resonant fo...

Re: quick blok key.......
This has potential, like as the beginning of something that keeps going. The flow of it is real good, and the essence of what your sayin is well expressed, just needs more too it overall. Add some more bars, keep it focused on the self-reflection kinda path your goin along so far, bring in some emot...

Re: Gracious Phrases
In general I thought this was a pretty solid drop, but the rugged diss thing in this instance was kinda whack. The flow had a nice feel about it, and I appreciated the direction you were goin with it at the beginning. I just really wasn't really feeling the veerin' off into the Rugged diss thing, ju...

Re: I'm Collectively Sick Son
Ha, this was alright, but next time you come at us bring it stronger. This felt like just a warm-up piece or something, didn't have much punch behind it, and far from personal. I read this without a single "damn! nice punch!" but with more of a ongoing miniscule chuckle.

Re: Prince of Pagans King of Paupers
Your fast becoming one of my favorite writters on the site Riggz. The uniqueness of this piece oozes from every line. Your vocab use is elevated, but clear and concise. Your message is layered, not simple and just complex enough. However your flow was a little hard to find, made this come off more l...

Re: Life Lessons Volume 1 (My First Mixtape)
Spectacular! Last night I was doing a lot of air travel and I dropped this as well as a couple other mixtapes on my mp3 player, and no doubt about it your mixtape made my journey seem to go real quick, I just sunk on into the songs and existed within the music. Goddamn great! By the way, I'm still o...

Re: Hip Hop (2xS Ft. Intrinsic Cadence)
Nice to see so many of you all are appreciatin' the work 2xS and I put into this collab track. I just wanna say that 2xS was a great emcee to collab with, as well as his lyrical and flow skills, he also helped a lot in mixing my verses, and he took charge in coming up with the hook. Not to mention h...

Re: Battle clarification, please
From what I understand, the rules have recently changed. One of the mods can correct me if I'm wrotng, but as far as I understand there is no longer any minimum post requirement for voting in battles unless the battlers specifically say only people with over a certain amount of posts may vote. Then ...
