Of all the ways in which an up-and-coming emcee can earn a spot on my radar, rapping over a beat that’s not in 4/4 rates high on the list. Seriously – it doesn’t happen as often as you’d think. On the latest single (and first feature) from PackFM, producer Domingo flips a 6/8 soul sample into a head-noddable beat as the Brooklyn native explains just how Nasty he is. While the emcee’s inventive flows are the main attraction, Pack’s lyrical chops can’t be denied; dropping lines like, “I’m fed up with / irrelevant rhetoric cleverly dressed as intelligence, sellin’ repetitive sentiments… ,“ he challenges sucker emcees to step up their game or get packing. Intrigued by this Booth newcomer’s nonconformist style? You can purchase PackFM’s wonderfully-titled full-length, I F*cking Hate Rappers now from online retailers – or, wait till May 15, and pick up a physical copy from a record store near you.

The slow beat was a little too... um... slow for me. I wanted to get into this more, but the pace just seemed to stunt my overall excitement. Production flaws aside, I like Pack's flow and who cannot agree with the title of his new project. Love it.

DJ-Z i really hear you on here, there was just too much cloudyness in the production and coupled with the flow it didnt come together right for me at all.
the scream in the instrumental is annoying but i know what its meaning is for but still non enjoyable for me it was just ok |

This gots to be the 1st time I haven't really liked any of the tracks on a given day. Flows on point but that's about it imo.
On a side note... Nooo, spammers have finally reached the booth!! ;) |

The production was good, but I hated that "NASTY!!" on it. The hook was ok but a little too much... something you might never hear from me. I like his flow, he's good.

One peek at the cover art and I wanted to like the joint, but just like @Z, I couldn't get into it wholly. Let's put it onto maybe pile!
Will get back to them other features later today, as for now I'm fcuking tired after refreshing the pages since 5 AM !! |

Booth is having a rough night. Can you people say "fast forward" with respect to the instrumental used for this track? PackFM's flow on here was incredible, but even with some good flow, a screaming lady in the background isn't going to help things very much.

I'm not sure what is going on tonight. Replace the last word of his Album name with the word "you" and you have my opinion as to what I think of this track. In all seriousness though, I wouldn't play this again.
Production needs work, lyrics are forgettable, put the two together and you have nothing but... |

Whoa RyanSx I wouldn't say i hate this artist because of this track. But yes this song is pretty nasty. Not that great of a week for songs but B.o.B kinda saved it and theres been worst. Weird beat and flow. Can't listen to it again after this first time.

Don't hate on this man for on not so good track...
Yeah the production isn't great and the beat is painfully slow but you can't sit here and listen and say PackFM can't rap. His fast flow is exceptionally good and all he needs next time is a more uptempo beat and then we have ourselves a decent track...until then though we will have to wait. |

@Mr.Top Hat: The album work got me too..
I like the sample but feel that it takes away from PackFM's flow. His quick delivery at the end of his second verse saved this song from being garbage. Shame the beat distracted me from his flow but even without the Nasty coming in every couple of bars the track ended before I could find a better reason to replay it. |

despite some of the negative comments from other booth members about the beat and the slow tempo of it i felt that pack's flow fits better in it than on a faster one. the sample is what detracts from the overall appeal of the song. sometimes you need a slow joint...

Y'all are certifiably nuts.
Let's identify the real issue here: the beat is 6/8 and you can't @*#$! with it cause you're not used to it. Let's just supposed Jay Electronia or Drake put out the same song - you'd all be tripping over yourselves to call it genius. smh By all other accounts, this is one of the more original tracks I've heard posted on this site. |

The production was too slow and also too messy to allow us to appreciate his rhyming which was decent.

The beat sounded too slow for the upbeat rapping. The sample was kinda annoying too.

I'm dissapointed with the nights features. Maybe if I had some new Jamz this would sound better! ;) But seriously, I'm just not feeling this one bit.

The beat was too slow and the woman screaming in the back round was annoying, but I liked the guys flow and his lyrics were pretty good.

I completely disagree with the average rating! I spent the whole week avoiding this, but I don't see any flaws but occasional out of sync/tune production.
The rapper is certainly not one of those I hate (I have a loooong list): he has a good flow and an artistic approach to it, plus some interesting lyrics. It's not a real banger, but I'll round up to balance this rating. |
