i always wondered what people mean by lyrical. is it about the meaning of lyrics or is it the rhyme schemes and multis? or maybe a combination of both? does it have to include social commentary? what exactly is a rhyme scheme/multis and is it use to put emphasis on the lyricism?

A multi is a multi-syllable rhyme. For instance


Hip Hop's my tee-pee, I'm the chief of this rap game
Meditatin, blazin reef on these speeches to blast brains
Slain fast, cane flow overdose pass through my veins
Acid rain corrode your whole left side, no fast lane
Surpassed blame
, took upon myself to craft reign
To graft stains
, leave my mark but never in caste vain
fukkers are past lame, lack vision with daft claims
To blunted to keep one hundred, my summit is past Wayne's

The first three bars have a 2 syllable rhyme scheme, there is also an inside multi with the Chief and Reef part, and a reverse multi with Slain fast.

The rest of the go off a three syllable, but it can get infinitely complex depending on your skill and what you wanna say.

BTW these are my lyrics.

Infinite had some pretty genius shyt though. The Infinite song was loaded with crazy multis. 313 had great punchlines.

You can be Run-D, you'll never be the MC
I'll stop the alphabet at S and got it down to a T

Your ass forgot, so just in case you don't remember me
I'll run your brain around the block to jog your fukking memory

You could date a stick of dynamite and wouldn't go out with a bang
I shout with a slang, simple as A,B,C's
Skip over the D's and rock the microphone with ease

I rock a beat harder then you could beat it with rocks

You couldn't make the fans throw up their hands
If they swallowed their fingers

sorry these are not multis or imo complex mutlis here is a example from eminem



[Verse 1:]
Cause all I do is yearn a life without a concern
And dream of having a turn to earn money to burn
Mapping out my strategies to get rich huh
My desire is like a scratch that needs to get itched huh
Cause man I live in the D, this shyt ain't given for free
Nothing's different to me, so what, it's easy to see
I'll be the prisoner to flee, all of this misery
I'm not wishing to be another fish in the sea
But just an MC, so listen to me, but if you disagree
You missing the key, you ain't even in the brisk of the tea
Unconditionally my aspects to cash checks
My objects were never to swab decks
It's up to you the decision is yours
If what you vision is tours, or a mission less course
When shyt is in the stores, cause you can be a star

Me and rhyme king have had this argument before.

I agree with you. Those are multisyllable rhymes, because they are rhyming multiple syllables together.

But in rhyme king's opinion, a multisyllable rhyme has to use multisyllable words (words with more than 1 syllable in them) - so stringing together a bunch of single syllable rhymes doesn't count in his opinion.
