What's up AGers. I am working on a song about Joburg from my point of view and before I lace the vocals I want to get feedback on the hook.

Thanks for the feedback. In the process of elimination, I figured out that AGer are not my solid fanbase. And it's Okay. Much success to everyone. Holla :lol:

As supportive as I am about making tracks about my hometown...

And as far as I won't actually call you a biter...

This shit sounds A HELL OF A LOT like 'Hold Down the Block' from Nas' Hip-Hop is Dead album. Hmmm...

Damn, I guess I can't say that the "block is hot" Nas has an exclusive patent on those words. My bad. You need to go back to the lab and pick up a hip hop dictionary and truly understand what the term biting is. Nas and I are rappin two different concepts. Matter of fact don't say sh1t else.

Besides, you completely missed the point. The two tracks are veeeery similar, whether you intended them to be or not. Perhaps a rework might be in order?
