to me it was g rap he was rhyming more syllables then anybody.

while most had basic multisyllable rhyme schemes

example

I'm right in front of my front steps thinking of a plan
Looking like Raggedy Ann, no dough in hand kicking a can
Thinking of a plot to pull some bank in
Because I'm dead and stinking
Soles on my shoes winking, t-shirt is shrinking
Soon I see some ties and my eyes open wide quick
Who's that with you, chick? Bill Blass my sidekick




right in front of my front steps thinking of a plan = 12 syllables
like Raggedy Ann, no dough in hand kicking a can 12 syllables

How you leave out Barney? I Love You was one of the first multisyllable verses. Plus he gave Cam'ron a style to run with:

I love you, you love me
We're a happy family
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too?

I love you, you love me
We're best friends like friends should be
With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too?

:damn::scusthov::wow:

You should edit the poll choices.

This is better served in a creative writing/poetry/literature class rather a Hip Hop board as no rapper can lay claim to it since the technique has been around forever.

Anyway can we actually talk about music on the whole for a change rather that one mere facet?

Multi's are not really that impressive when you understand that their an equivalent of basketballs crossover or soccer's step-over, it's in just about everybody's arsenal, some have mastered it some are ok at it some are bad at it, at the end of the day it's not the whole repertoire.

its funny that nikkas on this board & SOHH hate on Ronnie but dude actually sticks to topics on this board and completely focuses on the music instead of the lifestyle, swag, gossip and everything else.

To answer the thread though, Rakim or Melle Mel

it's all good to talk about the music but he does the exact same thread over & over & over & over. plus he wouldn't know how to highlight multis to save his life so it's frustrating & hilarious at the same time

it's real nikkas like u fam that keep me coming back to these forums because honestly i would have stop posting a long time ago

because we don't need homos and weridos on these boards

thank u fam for finally giving me the respect i deserved.

but melle mel had basic multi's

he would never rhyme with prominent syllables.

Its because its the same fukking topic every time. Or he will shyt on one MC, only to make a thread talking about how great they are later.
