Can you do something where you explain how to get this type of vocal sound?
bro tell how u process vocals
DO A KING VON TUTORIAL 💯💯💯💯💯
link isn't working
I remember when you would always say you weren’t confterble with your vocals . Look how far you come this shit is amazing and motivating
Thank you. Yeah I remember back then. I've slowly gained confidence over time, so I'm not as nervous or self-conscious when I'm trying to sing now, and I think that definitely makes the song sound better than my previous attempts
@@JRent506 I've all the skills I need from music production to writing and the ability to deliver however what I don't have is a handle on my performance anxiety even though it's just me here in my own space and studio. I don't know what it is that comes over me like a stranglehold but it's tough to break through. I know I can do what I set my mind to. We call can. It's just bloody hard to conquer this type of anxiety because it's presenting itself physically not just mentally.
@@JRent506 Your Vocal sounds very good man! i think it's good for emorap, not to be the most professional singer... so it somehow seems more authentic and punky. keep it up!
@@thestigmatickreature bro, the same. I hope that we will get through it
@@thestigmatickreature if you can every few days just record something could just be a 4bars of a cover if you're not feeling it. It helps just to make doing it not feel abnormal anymore and then you start to relax
Aye fr fr you got it right here with them vocals, ISSA HIT 🏆🔥
Thank you
@@JRent506 Barssss 🔥💯🔥
Aye bruh ion even cap cuh issa fire run up on yo momma ong bru aye cuh
It’s a dangerous genre to tackle. It’s my favorite genre, but sometimes lyrics can be too predictable. I appreciate your lyrics especially! To me a vocalist’s lyrics are what give emo rap it’s life. Incredibly well done! 🔥🔥
Really appreciate that, thank you. And yeah writing lyrics is always a bit of a challenge
The mumbling before the actual lyrics begin is SO accurate. Pretty much all lil peep songs have that
and juice yoo
Yeah except he doesn't mumble. Hes got bars and is an actual lyricist
@@LILREMAlNS yeaaaa
@@LILREMAlNS don’t disrespect peep like that’s cmon
@@Cam-rm1wn wat
This sounds like a Iaan Dior Song, Excelent job My g.
Thank you
Any song specifically or are you saying in general?
Sounds like 18
beats by pizzathug *i was only 18-*
Peep was the pioneer
His music is still rolling the world
Energy never fades away
he wasn't
@@borsukbadger um i meant peep pioneered in getting the emo rap in the hiphop game. dont get me wrong....
Bones,yung lean,kid cudi started this thing
in the underground scene
@@SALTNBLOOD now i can agree with you but pioneering is not a correct term for this, he just made this genre popular because of his death
@@borsukbadger yeah true sadly death attracts all these wannabe clout chasing posers labelling themselves as "fans". Theyll start yelling "he was like a father to me" without even knowing the guy.
and about the "pioneer" term, he started getting attention after hellboy mixtape dropped and all the attention caused a big game change in the scene where everyone was using this style including artists like juic wrld, lil xan, etc. He couldve been a big impact in the industry which he already is but sadly he couldnt make it and died as an emerging rapper.
IMO i liked the underground peep more than the gbc peep.
Just a friendly suggestion, u should try "In The Bedroom, I Confess" and "Garden" album from the underground peep
@@borsukbadger no? dude was selling out stadiums ppl BEEN fw peep
i wish there was a count on how many people end their comments with "lmao" lmao
true lmao
yeah lmao
Fax lmao
I have to agree lmao
Ik lmao
That melody is beautiful. It's great to see artists like convolk and guardin getting more recognition
The "smoking weed from the vape" and "evil and fake" part sounds like aries voice in some older songs lol
Touching on idols dying young is a really good topic to use when writing lyrics like these. You nailed it!
The melody and counter melody complemented each other perfectly. Then the rest of the beat? Fire. Great job j rent
I appreciate that, thank you
@@JRent506 np
Yeah I suck at counter melody
I love how he sounds like he's explaining this to 5 year-olds
TRUEEEE
The way your able to analyse any genre and make it sound good is really amazing.🔥
I appreciate that!
@@JRent506 np
You nailed this song so well it honestly seems like what juice wrld or lil peep would right
You did emo-rap so well. Bravo! It's been my favorite music genre ever since I discovered Juice WRLD, I feel like it really allows for people to come to terms with how they feel. Great vid
Emo rap has one of the most toxic fanbases. A lot of them don't respect hip hop or emo rock. I worship both genres, and I think it's funny how things like that work.
I don't know much about the fanbase, so I've never experienced that myself
@@JRent506 Whatever you do, don't ever call Lil Peep or Juice trash 👀 they'll drag you and all your favorite rappers
I don’t like the fanbase tbh
@@tykovain yeah, i love peep but the fans are just nope
You don’t have to worship emo music and hip hop to enjoy Emo rap.
please tell me im not the only one that thinks the first flow sounds EXACTLY like composerily’s juice wrld type song
I did see that video but haven't watched it anytime recently
I just came to comment the exact same thing!
Except J Rent is objectively better than Composerly in terms of flow and video quality 😉
Its not from composerily man. Emos always doing this type flows i mean look iann diors songs he usually using this flow
finally you mentioned convolk. i love you for this.
Yeah I just started listening to his music after seeing all the comments about him, he's definitely talented
I think you should make more beats like this coz instrumental beats are way too better than others. Especially guitar melody and mixing is simple but perfect in this video. You improve yourself in every video. Wish you luck and good day justin the teacher.
i myself listen mostly to emo rap, especially peep and convolk. i'm so happy u finally touched this topic and i'm so impressed by what u made
Damn watching a genre like emo trap blow up was pretty cool. Now its even kinda in the mainstream
Bb major??? 🧐 What's next? Lydian augmented??? 😳
😂😂😂
LOCRIAN
@@jkronmusic4903 double harmonic ahaha
yes please
Lol... He's too smart for y'all 😂
Im joking
damn bro, killer beat, ive been listening to lil peep, juice wrld, xxxtentacion for a few years now and i can really feel them in your beat. love the vid and beat
Damn . Your vocals getting better and better. Respect bro, you are doing a great Job + you are bringing ud the knowlage
Don't call me emo don't call me punk
Yessir been waiting for this one ☝️🔥🔥
This was a textbook effort that really helped me understand the dynamics and It’s a great foundation for would-be artists to build upon. Thanks for this. My two cents is to add a bit of slur to the flow, but not so much that you’re mumbling incoherence. Emoting the lines as if you’re acting is also important. Finally, pushing a little growl or rasp can really make a typical voice stand out.
Yea this got me chills. On point man, thank you
The guitar melody is so beautiful
This sounds like a typical emo rap track except it has really cool punchlines and its deep!!!!!
Thank you!
Amazing job on the vocals. Have you been seeing a vocal teacher? You've come a long way since the early tutorials!
Thanks. And no I haven't been seeing a vocal teacher or anything, I just think I have a bit more confidence now so it came out sounding better than earlier attempts at this genre
@@JRent506 That extra "bit" of confidence really shows up in the overall sound of what you create. Keep going, you're on a right path now.
u should do ramirez!!!
yesssss
Yes please
This is by far one of the best ones. You absolutely killed it my man. It was really fun making it along with you!
Love it man, the vocals are perfect and work so welll with the beat.
Thanks man
Great job on the prod and on the lyrics too, the flow is realy good !!!
Great Song!
But i am just so in love with the song of your old lil peep Video (the "I still See your face when i close my eyes" one)
I would love to hear this in a full song
Im suprised how well the song turned out, great job!
I appreciate that, thank you!
The quality of of these videos just keeps getting better
uff "all my favorite artists seem to die young" hit hard. Really awesome song ^^
The vocals are just perfect🔥
Guitar part just like Sypski- What you Need. Amazing melody, beat and vocals 💯💯
Broo. Guardin finally getting recognition ❤️❤️. Been a fan for a long time and saw him live
Your evolution as a creator is incredible I love your videos and I wish you luck as you move forward
yoo convolk my dawg i love how you called him a popular artist even tho he is hella underrated
Rip Peep
Thanks that you mentioned convolk, dude deserves so much more attention
Damn, that vocals are fire🔥🔥
J MADE THE BEAT SO HE MIXING IT PERFECT!!!!💔❤❤❤
Dude you gotta make an emo rap vocl turtorial that shid was fire vro🔥🔥🔥
Sounds like a mix between X and juice, mad props great song
Fire bro 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 the fact that you can sing well and make amazing beats is just insane, Keep it up.
I don't know why but that zoom at 2:40 made me remember Tarantino's movies.
This hits me right in the feels!
I’m a big fan, and I just started listening to your stuff on Spotify. Could you add a second verse to your songs for Spotify? I want to keep listening to your stuff, but at only 1-2 minutes a song it’s a bit hard. Sometimes I want a song to keep going, you know? I think it’d get you more attention and it gives your viewers more a reason to check out your Spotify ;)
That melody alone is ode bro‼️🙌🏼🔥
Thanks bro
so glad to see you mention convolk hes getting some recognition
Damn dude, I had a playlist of all my fav emo rap artists a couple years ago and this hits the same vibe as every song there, amazing job
Yo wtf this is so fire, why have i never seen this guy before?? Such a banger, good job 👊🔥🔥
the effects placed on that first melody made a B major sound sad. I love it.
for just a quick tutorial you freaking killed it man
that first guitar note goes harder than lil moseys entire career
This didn’t age well
Honestly really good vocals, and the beat is 🔥 as always!
You can kill any style bro. Since you mentioned hyperpop in this video, would love to see a from scratch video on 100 gecs or osquinn
i see guardin i like
J Rent the GOAT 👑👑👑💯
You're making banger after banger, keep up the vibes man. More power to you.
nailed the vocals bro🔥
Some of your best work my brother 👍👌✌️
Thank you, I appreciate that
Never add a song so fast this here is a low hit great job @J Rent 🔥🔥🔥 always..
omg I love you, you show guardin someone who is not getting enough love. Really like you man
you're the man, these videos are so well done
I appreciate that, thank you
I actually vibing to this 🔥. Really REALLY good bro well done.
That gangsta interview vid in the beginning made me hear you so much
I’m so glad you mentioned convolk
the song in the end desvribes alot in me !!
These vocals touch heart broo
i think the world needs emo rap, it's what seems to be the last breath of true music left that embodies true inner emotion and brings it to reality. There is still music out there today that isn't emo rap that tries to do this, but nothing can replicate the same tones, vibes and hit you with such emotion that the music itself swallows you while the lyrics are the stomach acid steadily consuming you until there is nothing left but the nutrients of what you become from it, something similar to this was the rock/metal era, and rap/hip hop era of where they don't just use lyrics or the music do the work but combine both to make a great work of art worth letting take control of you while you sit there jamming away from something relatable and beautiful. Just my take.
Thanks for this vid!! Love your stuff!!♥️
I appreciate that, thank you
YO SHOUTOUT GUARDIN AT THE START, DID NOT EXPECT TO SEE THAT!
Great lyrics and beat. 👍🏻
Thank you. I really appreciate it
Good one, J!
Thank you
You're analysis of rap lyrics in the 90s and early 2000s couldn't be more wrong, artists like mobb deep, dmx and big pun even onyx would go very in depth speaking about depression, suicide and mental health more so than any emo rapper has
True story .. but those legends were not emotionally singing melodically sad shit 😂
i love watching your videos and i always find myself vibing to the song at the end!! u is the goat fr
it made me so happy to see guardin in the first second
wow brooo that's insane fr ur bars ur flow ur sad but truth bars it's insane fam keep it up I enjoyed this the most
Do you have any tips for making sad or bittersweet melodies? Yours always sound a lot better than mine, and I was wondering if there was some theory tips or something you could give me.
I don't know, because a lot of it comes down to just clicking in notes and reproducing the vibe you're looking for that way. The best I can do is give you a basic chord progression that I've used in past emo type beats a couple times that I know works:
VI, VII, i, v
So if it were D minor it would be Bb major, C Major, D minor, A minor
But just knowing the chords will only get you so far, you also need to figure out the rhythm you want them to hit in and the topline melody that'll compliment and reinforce the vibe you're going for. I basically just go with chords I know will work and then I trial and error my way through the rest
@@JRent506 That helps a lot. I've been really focused on the melody portion rather than the chords, and not even going for the rhythm or anything. Thanks for the tip man!
you upped your plugin game! its a good look! you nailed this one!
Best part of the day.
Holy crap this actully sounds so nice! Great work!
Dang I didn't expect guardin as the first clip, he's a great lil emo rapper🔥🔥
Yeah he's good
This was so fire!!! 🔥🔥🔥
first artist in this video is guardin and I love that
good song bro, you are killinm it
that beat goes hard
That guitar intro sounds almost exactly like a croatian song "sve jos mirise na nju". I know that this is most likley an accident but that is awesome
Great vocals bro the improvement is really noticable
That verse went in not gone lie 🔥🔥🔥
WOW your production value is skyrocketing. im a bit late to this upload but god DAMN im impressed with the way youre headed. stick with it king
Man this whole song is a vibe ❤️👑💯
This shit is fucking insane, THIS GOES HARD AF!!
I’ve watched this at least 10 times. Slowly improving my sound thanks to you! Bless
