I need opinions (I think I suck at rapping now)

After listening to a few freestyles and tracks I've made, I've come to a conclusion. I suck and I can't make a decent track if my life depended on it. Why?

1. I can't enunciate words correctly. If you listen to my tracks, you can barely understand what I am saying. For some reason I can't say two words quicky without dragging the first word for a little while, and it comes out horrible, no matter how many times I rerecord a track.

2. I have absolutely no flow whatsoever.

3. My tracks are boring. I sound dead when I am rapping. You'd probably fall asleep in the middle of my tracks or start a random conversation while listening.

4. I mumble/studder a lot.

5. I'm often off beat.

6. My voice is very low, yet I still sound like a kid. I can't seem to work with that correctly.

7. We all know I need a new name. My current one is too close to Ludacris.


What exactly do I need from you guys? I need you to listen to all of my songs, and then tell me what is wrong with me and how I can fix these problems. I REALLY want to become a better rapper than what I am. My team member makes me look like crap on the tracks. Plus, our group album is going to drop in like a month. I don't want to sound like shit on it.

"What I Am" was the worst track I ever made. That was my first time using my mic, so I was WAY too close to it. You should listen to a different one.

But what about my flow and my lyrics? What do you think I should improve on with those?
