Listen To Who Cares Hip Hop Song By Terrancet At Looperman.com

We should collab bro. I like what you writin!

I really like the words you had to say. The lyrics on this song is really great. The beat is my only problem because it's kind of off beat but it still works. The bass and piano was very emotional and I think that worked perfectly for what you had to say. Overall I think this track was a strong one and had a strong message which needs to be heard. Thanks for the listen and keep up the good work.

I like it. Who gives a Fck! The last verse caught my attention more for some reason. Think I'll go over it again while I play some chess. This site needs more good writers in the Hip Hop genre so, hearing this was like a breath of fresh air.

Real as it gets! like some previous comments, it can flow better but overall real deep truth be told! love it!

I fuck with the lyrics. I fuck with the emotion. Good song. Can be great with better execution. Tighten up the timing of the flow and eveything will be gravy.

Man this is deep and harcor! I love the depth of it! Reminds me of one of my earlier songs "fuck you". I am in love with offensive music, so I dig it. You've got a great delivery, and the recording is well done, so I can't complain. Made me groove, do you've done the deed. Potent track! Fav'd!

I like the overall concept... I find it interesting. But as far as execution, I feel like the flow and the lyrics could be better but your delivery is decent.

Again, I like the concept//hook. I find it "different".

One of them real tunes, one that cuts to the bone...
Let's just say you ain't alone, you my friend know how
the root has grown and where it is going...
You are on the right road, don't let Money Change you
once you get there...
Cause They Never Liked Us Anyway...

Peace...TG.

This is definitely a dope track, tbh when the intro was playin I didn't think it would be that good but as the composition move onward shit got good. You managed to create an interesting track.

I also agree and disagree with Scott's opinion of how music should be. Music is art and a reflection of its master. If Picasso painted like Da Vinci or if Poe wrote like Shakespeare the world would be a boring place.

Nice work again bro.

Terrancet,

I wanted to chime back in and commend you on your reply to my comment. After thinking about it, I wish I had kept my thought to myself. My original intent was to give you encouragement on your first post, but your track just upset me and I was too quick on the trigger with a comment. I was thinking you would have a few choice words for me, but instead, you offered a very mature reply to my misspoken words.

Music has been a positive force in my life since I was 10 years old. After graduating from the Univ. of W. Fla., I was offered a position in the Pensacola Symphony Orch. and an on-call studio musician at the Muscle Shoals Sound Studio. Through all my years, I never encountered any aspect where music was suppose to be offensive, so I guess you taught me something. Yes, times can get hard in life, but I would rather accentuate the positive and use music to escape the bad times, rather than dwell on them. I guess I'm one of those guys who want to hear another love song or songs about the good things in life!

Anyway, good luck in your endeavors, and I do hope to hear something from you that is a bit more positive.

Cheers,
Scott

Pretty dope track terrancet! That beat is sick with a tight melody. The drums are hitting hard. Not a big fan of the hook but the verses are ill. The mix sounds pretty good too. Nice work.

Dear Terrancet,

I don't usually click on the hip hop tracks, but I read your forum thread about how to get people to respond to your tracks, so I thought I'd check out your page and respond.

I know the 'N' word and the 'F' word is common in your style of music, but I was hoping I could hear something that would change my mind about hip hop. Unfortunately, It didn't! Let's be honest...Do you actually play an instrument? I'd like to hear anything you do that is not vulgar? In my world, music is suppose to be enjoyable. Why isn't it in your world? I realize, my reply is probably considered 'racist' but, hey, you asked for comments.

Sorry, but your track really turned me off.

I know...Who gives a fuck!

Scott

The instrumental beat is good.
Your challenge is to do a clean version!

And your message will still come across, and maybe redo the lyrics and offer some solutions to the problems - that will indeed be your challenge. Than we can all turn a negative into a positive.

Take care man. - B

this goes hard,the lyrics fit well with this style of instrumental,really raw style you got,im liking those kicks and snares how they hit really hard,keep it up bro

I think you get your message across real well.!

Love the beats n strings,powerful lyrics that blend real good with the atmos of your track!!

As for who gives a fuck,well i do lol

Deep track man.

***bb***

Dope homie.Loving the subject matter too.Keep it coming.

Hey, terrance. Your response made me wonder if there was something special about how to mix and master hip hop tracks. I haven't really done a lot of research, but found the following blog post from a Mastering Studio in Toronto and the advice makes sense. Generally, he is talking about setting levels for different instruments in advance of mastering, but applying compression, perhaps some judicious EQing, and a limiter on the master output track will allow you to boost the final output level to a max of 0db which is fine for tracks to be uploaded to the web. Some day I'm going to try out one of these online mastering places to see if their finished product actually sounds better than what I can do.

To be honest I don't think you should touch anything on the beat. It's prefect as it is. You should concentrate more on the vocals. Maybe adding a light reverb or delay or maybe both. Just experiment with it so it can sit on the beat better.

I've been doing this for years and I'm still trying to get it right lol. Seriously though, this is dope bro.

Peace.

Well, you asked for comments in the forum so, here's my reaction to this track.

First, you should know that I've never really been into rap. Comes from a different world and I didn't "get" it. Wasn't sure it was really music, frankly. Also, many of the topics and language were just stuff I couldn't relate to. I know that Quincy Jones likes rap, so I figured there was something I just didn't understand, but never made the effort to explore it.

Then, for some reason, I got intrigued by JayZ and read his unauthorized biography ("Empire State of Mind"). I began to get an appreciation for what good rap was really about. So now I'm reading his book, "Decoded" and reading his lyrics and the background for his songs and now I think I'm beginning to get it. I could never make this kind of music, but I think I can appreciate where it comes from.

Your track makes an impact. The lyrics have impact. I'm still very uncomfortable with some of the language, but I have to admit it has power. And, it sounds real, not put-on like some other raps I've heard.

I liked the complexity from the variations in the rhythm of the rhyming. I wasn't crazy about the backing instrumental track. The contrast between the words and the relatively "sweet" sound of the instruments was interesting, but I think you need to find more unique sounds.

Mix was OK, but I'm thinking that using some compression during mastering would give it more punch.

So, I'm really glad you asked the question in the forums, because I probably wouldn't have listened to your track otherwise and I would have missed something really good and would have missed out on expanding my horizons. Next time I won't need to see a post in the forums to check out a new track from you. :)

Really nice track bro,and the lyrics are real.It's nice to here a rap tune that's not talking about what they got. Good work.

I think this is the only rap/hiphop song ive ever liked on looperman, ive listened to a quite a few and ive just not really enjoyed them, this one is really good. Not only is the lyrics great!, but its got a awesome beat which is where alot of other looperman rap artists fail.

Good job man :D

Well i'm hardly the main authority on hip hop round here but i'll have a go. I like the melody. The piano is haunting, the synth is nice and i like the way the way the word fuck hits at the same time as the clap. It gives it extra oomph. Vocally it's good and your voice is nice and cleanly recorded as well. It's also pretty epic at 5:36 but you managed to keep it interesting all the way through.
This was an enjoyable listen.
