Why do people act like dudes like the Migos or Gucci aren't LYRICALLY talented?

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

I think the accent and slang got some of ya'lls ears clogged...

Dudes in the south REALLY rap...

I'll never understand the hate outsiders have for south acts.

Wouldn't say Migos are lyrically talented but they def can flow their ass off

 

[BrothaZay]

Gucci Mane is, migos no

 

[j7thirty]

Na, them nikkas aren't lyrical. I never listened to Gucci, and thought, "Yeah, that's something that took time. I can't do that."

 

[Gotright]

They don't really listen

 

[mozichrome]

man, just enjoy the music

They are lyrical if we go by today's standards.

Gucci Mane's lyricism is one of the most under-appreciated and ignored phenomena in rap today. Take a listen to a mixtape like Chicken Talk or Ice Attack and pay close attention to his wordplay... he was saying more than just about any trap artist at the time. Today though, I think his lyricism has waned, as has his beat selection too; nothing beats those Zaytoven/Gucci tapes from the mid 2000s.

These dudes style isn't even really about lyrics, its more about flows, beats, and the actual performance. I'm pretty sure they don't even write their lyrics, but come up with their shyt more vibe based on the beat and let the flow carry the track.

And I'm not even saying that means they are wack. But I don't think they take a truly lyrical approach to their raps. I'd say even Young Jeezy is more lyrical, in the sense he actually does things lyrically, even if its the most basic metaphors or double entendres, he actually will use a poetic device occasionally.

Post lyrics or shut the fukk up

The last verse on Versace is . I keep telling people but no one wants to believe me. Gucci aint Lyrical, he's an entertainer. A great entertainer, but only an entertainer.

 

[Big Blue]

How can the OP say this and post no lyrics?

Dudes in the south really rap but you're championing two of the worst acts to illustrate your point.
