Reviews for "Big Red - Mr Jones"

this is good

There's not a whole lot of decent amateur rap out there that doesn't sound really corny and just not clever or timed well.

This is HUGE HUGE exception to that. This is an excellent (if short) and incredibly well written and poignant example of well-thought out and aptly engineered rhyme paired with a catchy beat and instrumental...

Listening to it again, I am stuck how on occasion these gems do actually show in their proper spot on newgrounds instead of the normal multi-tracked drivel that graces the front page of the audio portal normally.

The only thing I think is funny is you used the word "refute" in reference to what the character could do in the case of his own "sh*t talking". It doesn't exactly make sense in this context as the word refute means to figuratively dismantle (as in to refute someone else's statement), and why would the character want to sabotage his own argument? Anyway - there's a more appropriate word choice there that I can't suggest at right now.

BigRed responds:

Well written review, thanks for taking the time!

Think about the similar phrase "He wouldn't fight because he couldn't fight back." The downfall of my sentence is the pronoun "it", as what "it" refers to is ambiguous. It's tricky writing with rhyme and rythm without losing clarity, and I did lose a bit there. I'm working on it though, expect better next time! :D Thanks again!

Really Good

I really like This style of Rap it's much like immortal technique like how the song "dance with the devil" by immortal technique told a story as well if this is you rappin man you did an impressive job everything pieced together perfectly especially the part where you cut from the mic and let the english dudes talk Nice job 5 stars

BigRed responds:

Crying out to the sky cause he was lonely and scared,
But only the devil responded cause god wasn't there,
and right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold,
and so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul.

I'm definitly influenced by the man, a underground poet of a high caliber. Thanks for comparing me to him!

alright

If this is you 10 if not 20...years in prison. But I despise most rap except for this kind that doesn't always talk about a stripper. Good job man.

BigRed responds:

Mr jones totally was a stripper though! ;)

This is really good.

I'm not a rap type of person, but I definitely like how "real" this is. No happy-ending bullshit. Just.. Reality. Great job, mate.

BigRed responds:

I like how you put it!

dude

this song means so many things to me that i cant even start because i would never stop listing. My god masterpeice.
