LOUD.
The vocal flow is more pop rock than rap but, yeah, he's not moving between notes much.
The above does seem to suggest a rock song or two I've heard.
Your part has a decent rap flow and your voice...distant, filtered...works well.
Yep ... It's loud. And the funny thing is I actually backed off the loudness a fair amount. I had to use something to have my country voice sound like rap.... The best I could do was a telephone call effect.... Thanks for the listen

Waaaaay out of your wheelhouse, but you guys hit all the right spokes. Not the wheelhouse of my life either, but, man, I dig it. Gave it a couple spins and like it more with each pass. It's such a good mix and overall production. I really dig Rob's vocal, and the lyrics are cool. Well done, Herb & Rob.

Dave, Bob, David, Torry, Derochette, Dewey, FireSong, FMM and Marty
Gotta catch up.... thanks for listening. There's been a lot of changes to this and I'll likely be updating the song file some time later today or tomorrow. Just suffice it to say it will be a big change.... hopefully in the right direction.
Stay tuned and THANK YOU to everyone who has listened to this work in progress and given us your comments and ideas.....

If I was asked who forum member has made this song, I would have never guessed correctly. Yes, it is good to experiment and hopefully this inspires other BIAB users to get out of their boxes  I would call this Gangsta's BIAB. Very professional sounding work, nice bass, great vocals. Works surprisingly well for the message. Janne

Remix 8-10-23 Here This is a structural change as well as a rewrite of the rap part and it was an excellent decision I think, to pull in someone who can actually rap.. some level changes.... Enjoy. This is not a final mix.... Just another step on the journey

Sounds good!
I'm not in a position to say anything about the genre, but it works for me.
As cool as heavy synths are, I think the second mix works better.

I didn't mix the second mix. All I did was arrange it. Cut, copy and paste. I'm thinking we may be done with the song at this point. Other things are on the drawing board currently.

Far out! The song sounds like you were very comfortable outside of your comfort zone.  We normally only hear this genre on commercials but it seems like you nailed it. The lyric message was a surprise and you both delivered it well. Kudos to you both on a cool collab! J&B

I added a newer mix from Rob.... but wasn't able to go back to add it to the OP. I guess the forum software shuts off edits after a certain number of days. Thanks for listening.... and just so you know..... I read on FaceBook that hip hop is now well over 50 years old..... wow.... I reckon, better late than never to the party.

Herb & Rob,
Pretty cool use of BIAB! Absolutely stunning experiment considering your prior offerings, meaning it sounds very seasoned, like someone wrote it who is comfortable with genre. Listened to both mixes. Second one is a winner. The vocal performance in strange way reminded me of RHCP. Thank you for sharing.
Misha.

Misha. Thanks for listening Misha. I too like the second mix. I had to look up RHCP. I can't take much credit for the vocal performance but I'm sure Rob will take that as a compliment.
