Da Brakes Posted December 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Ha ha!! Nah nothing like that!! Like most good promises, this one was too good to be true! Record company reps didn't turn up which was a bit disappointing but I still had a great night none the less. Before I had to go on I was so nervous! It had been about a year since I had last performed and it was all flooding back. richard Blackwood was FUNNY! he was once tipped as the british Will Smith but I never really saw the comparison - other than the fact that he rapped (realeased 1 album) and acted (starred in a low rate sitcom!). There were only 3 acts performing. Myself, another rapper and a beatboxer. The other rapper before me was ok but his song didn't really keep the interest of the audience. I was reasonalbly pleased with my performance. My mic wasn't right at all and there were certain aspects I would have done different if I could re-do it. but all in all I was pleased! The beatboxer (FaithSFX) that came on afterwards was AMAZING! i seriously think he's on par if not better than Rahzel! He did it all. Popular tunes which sounded identical to the original and also singing and beatboxing at the same time!! (He did Ginuwine - Pony) The crowd went crazy!! All in all it was a good night and it felt good getting back into the swing of of things!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzy Julie Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 well done brakes!! its a shame about the record companies tho. At least u did well and had a good time. I used to like Richard Blackwood as a presenter but he wasnt a very good rapper, hes got nothin on Will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Brakes Posted December 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Nothin at all! I got his album and I liked it for what it was! If you were trying to take him seriously as a rapper then this won't appeal to you. If your looking for a fun light hearted album then check it out! (If you can still find it!)

Silver Tiger Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 That's great. And a good beatboxer is always fun. I thought I'd let you know that I think you really are good, I actually come back to your page to listen to your stuff. I'd like to get up there, but right now I like to blame my mic. What kind of mic do you use? God Blessa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Brakes Posted December 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 That means alot to me man! Thanks alot: :thumb: To record my vocals I use a condenser mic. This is really the only way to go if you want clear, professional sounding vocals. There not even that expensive! I picked mine up for about 80 quid!
