velorra and I created this song for Pay it forward called "Key Plz"

This is our first time ever recording a song, so we aren't amazingly gifted but it was a lot of fun! We're really excited about Wildstar and we hope our efforts show it! =)
 
Truly epic. Nice little [Tab] shout out in there, too.

If release estimates are to be believed, we are less than 6 months away! I may die.

Lol thanks a lot!! I orignally had alttabme in the intro, but we changed it. In case the song wasn't that great or something, didn't want to tarnish TAB lol.

Omg, we could have gotten a reputation as a bunch of screwballs...

O wait.
 
Awww. I've told you guys I think it's fantastic already so I won't gush about it.

I'm sure that was meant as good natured teasing and not mean spirited in any way.

Once you get your keys (power of positive thinking!!!) you'll be singing & rapping all over Nexus.
 
Great video, but man you gotta speak up!


I don't know, it's just how I talk. I was debating trying to change my voice, as some rappers do, for the song but decided to just go with myself. Some told me my voice reminded them of Mase, for those who don't know, is a more relaxed tone and basically just uses his speaking voice. I know I'm nowhere near as good as him, this is my first time doing it lol. I wasn't really going for ZOMG BALLER STATUS SONG, just a fun thing to do for Pay it Forward yet hopefully it was still good due to the lyrics.

I will start with this:
This was our first ever attempt at recording a song. We are not pros. We don't sing or perform like at all EVER. You won't hear me singing in public, trust me. The lyrics were written by Andrew. If you heard the original song by P Diddy, it was meant to be sung by me, and rapped/said on his part. So his voice is supposed to be lower more in the speaking range. (We have a TON of rock/metal fans so I think this distinction would be lost on that group. Don't get me wrong we love rock but listen to rap as well.)

And next, about the video:
Really? I mean, REALLY? That's pretty immature to make fun of us like that. When we listened to the final version multiple times, the volume levels of all the tracks were very audible and we also included the lyrics in case you were not able to hear properly for some reason.

I would have hoped that a leader of such a great community like this would support everyone's attempt at creativity and going outside of their comfort zone or at least give CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. (That being said, THANK YOU everyone who has supported us and given feedback so far. We really appreciate it!!) That is a pretty funny clip you linked, but the derogatory way in which you compared it to us was NOT funny. I don't mind if people downvote or even say they hate it - some people hate that sort of music. And in the real world some people can be real assholes about the way they give their opinion. Don't degrade our efforts and creativity, because we had a lot of fun doing this, and honestly the lyrics were pretty damn fun and entertaining. Andrew wrote those, did I mention? How talented is THAT?? I can't write shit like that!



This is not a rage post or a butthurt post - we really could not care less if people hate this, but as members of AltTabMe who support our community, I guess we just expected more from the leadership of this great guild.



The lyrics are posted as well, if you don't understand what Andrew's saying. That's his normal voice as well; he is more soft spoken IRL than most people and this is a rap which is mean to be spoken. :) Thanks for the support though!!

I love my fiery Velorra! With that said, we are still pretty new here, her more so than I. We do have a sense of humor, but I think we both took that video as a slap in the face for this context. Don't get me wrong, I love "The Lonely Island" but I see where Velorra is coming from. Thank you to everyone for the support and feedback though! [DOUBLEPOST=1373026601,1373026454][/DOUBLEPOST]
