This is "rap music", not "hip hop" (in the 80s/90s sense) I guess, so that's the so-called "Backpacker's Dilemma".

I gotta admit I don't like much of this kinda music.......not at all. Simply heard too many of these simplistic beats. But I had your track on the "The Avengers Vol.2" mixtape (I think) and it was the only one song I liked.

Don't care much about the "sophistication" of beats, if it fits the rapper, the content, the flow, then it's good for what it is.

Congrats and keep on having fun. :cheers:
 
Not a producer but this songs sucks and the amount of people that dislike this song greatly outnumbers the amount that like it. Should've been given to another artist. A better one.
 
Congrats. My 14 year old nephew hipped me to this song, and I like it alot.


Didn't know what a snap back was though, until I googled it....then I'm like "oh, those old hats we stopped wearing in the 80's".


:cheers:

Can't appease everyone. Enigmatic is entitled to his opinion. Even tho he's not a fan, a gold plaque definitely says something (a big ole f*ck your face). Congrats and stay on your grind.

Please tell me how I'm a hater?
 
I don't care if the man produced a song with a blind monkey on it. A gold record is a huge accomplishment. Whether you like the song or not, a gold record in these times (especially produced by one of our own) is tremendous. Congratulations!!!

Play on playa..............

That's a very questionable statement. As it stands, the op is getting a GOLD PLAQUE from a single. Not an easy feat in todays industry. Basing your opinion on your "hate/like" ratio not only sounds like something a hater would say, but is also completely unfounded.

How about citing an actual resource (if there was one) for your whimsical comparison?

Your entitled to your opinion as well, i'll acknowledge that but your choice of words . . . regardless your biased from the jump.

Let the man enjoy his accomplishment instead of raining on his parade.

since you asked, my idea of good hip hop music is anything from a nice instrumental to the rapper who is a true lyricist or has a top notch flow. example would be black hippy, asap mob, jay electronic (in fact lets just say everybody in roc nation even though i'm not a huge jay-z fan), jet life, pro era, good music, and wu-tang those are examples of good hip-hop artist right there. if you made this song back in the 90's or early 2000's people would have thought it was wack it might have been good back in the 80's when the only thing people could rap over were drum beats

first off the beat is so generic it sounds like something you hear from young upcoming teenage producers/rappers in cali and the fact that driicky is a terrible rapper just makes it worse

i will congratulate you on getting it gold, with this internet piracy we got going achieving that seem nearly impossible

I never said Arch was wack. I said he should've gotten a better artist on it. The fact that a song like this went gold is an example of what's wrong with rap today.

besides, ya'll may hate it. but 500,000 people out there loved it enough to buy it. Thats all that matters, make music for the people not for niggas on the internet to praise.

those 500,00 happened to be between the ages of 11-19 just so you know. i doubt the demographic goes beyond that. plus i did congratulate him but what i and the gentleman above are trying to say is that demographic who bought the song just goes to show where hip hop is heading not saying he his bad but that people would rather listen to simple stuff like this is amusing

like i said before arch you keep getting your paper and good job and luck
 
congratulations arch. First time hearing the track and i like it. Let me ask you a few questions and if you find the time please respond. Since that song has dropped and recieved the mass attention has your business increased dramatically as far as connections with people in the music industry? Have you had a lot more opportunitys come your way directly because of the snapback track? Just curious as to what this one track has done for your career :-)

Cheers

Arch did say that a lot of people wanted the beat if I'm not mistaken. And this song was sort of pushed by Yung Berg. This is the same guy that gets made fun of all the time but somehow can rack up over 60 million views on Worldstar from some of his videos?

from a person in the industry lookin out. having Yung Berg pushing a record doesnt really mean much, he pushes a lot of records and not many of them pop like this one did.

and even still that should inspire you to the point that a person that gets made fun of all the time in the industry has enough pull to get you a gold record if the record is hot.

come on theres more positives there then negatives
 
Haters wanna hate, lovers wanna love... ..... I don't even want, none of the above I want to piss on you. Lol
