Hi Everyone,

I'm new at rapping (just started doing this thing 1 month ago). Anyways, I happen to have autism. Therefore, I am trying to spread awareness & defeat stereotypes with my videos. You can check them out below, and if you like them, I would be honored if you could share them on social media! Thank you! :)

My Very Best,
Russell

Wow man, to be entirely honest I really am not much into rap more into metal and rock...but that was pretty good. I would say the second video seemed to flow a bit better, I liked the content of the first one but I think you certainly had a better flow with the second, understandable since the first one is your first song.

But I think you should keep it up....I get so sick of pointless rap about b*tches and bling and being gangsta or whatever the hell, your stuff actually has a bit more depth which I can appreciate.

Honestly i don't like rap/ hip-hop much, eminem is fine, but that put aside though, i must say that your songs/videos was quite nice :)

I agree with sweetleaf also, both were good, but #2 was the best :thumright:
Also yes like she also said, in contrast to many other rap songs, it was nice to hear your rapping had meaning and depth to it, i liked that :)

Keep up with the writing/ rapping, you got a talent there
