you gon hide in a hole like all the wack rappers from your gateway.
who need a loan, hid in the house and never rocked shyt grassroots ever.

especially if you was dumb enough.
not to know any cypha actual ettiquette.
to provoke being served and exposed.

You not adept enough to review a record tho.
Or you would have reviewed it already.

Your errant obvious narcissist opportunist review won't change my classic. Plus you are not in the cultural hiphop scene. to have already reviewed my record mister cap fake council suh.

Like i said,...review this record you talembout you made this thread for.
As i already put out there whom you following and their emo witch hunt and mantra.
As they are a nepotism based culture thief. masquerading for a draw in a culture he was never apart of besides. Everyone was a breaker in that era. It don't make you no real bboy tho. Just like you not apart of hiphop frfr just because you listen to the misappropriated title of music wrongly named just rap.

Lyricism and entertainment are not mutually exclusive

What it really comes down to is (usually trendy) beat selection, making sure there's a strong hook in the chorus, and counting bars, the last of that is or should be learned early.

The bulk of rappers don't play instruments or read music, and despite the melody/auto tune yodeling today, don't sing all that well so I don't really think they have a superior "musicality" that lyricists lack.

Yeah, that's what I mean by musicality in rap. Someone like 50 Cent isn't the best MC in the world, but he has the ability to make memorable songs with catchy hooks. That's a skill that doesn't always get appreciated.

A lot of people like to shyt on Nas for his production choices, but if it was really that serious, he wouldn't have the career he has now. He's always known how to make songs.

nobody cares how dope your bars are if your music is trash. There are too may dope lyricist who can't make dope songs and albums then get mad when less skilled rappers who make good songs out sell them and are more popular.

Some dope lyricists are even worst and can't flow for shyt and sound awful saying their bars like Chino xl, Skillz and Talib kweli. bu bu bu the industry holding us back :damn:


People just want to hear good music. You can't make music to impress others lyricists then get mad when the public rejects your deposit because your music is trash.
how many of these have you seen live or heard on radio?
plenty of these pure lyricist know how to rock a crowd and a bless a radio session..

back backers included..
have you ever been to rawkus gig/show?

talib kweli is trash?? lmao..have you seen him live?

I get what OP is saying but this ain't really been an issue since the advent of the internet. Which lets you connect to whatever fan base you want.

There is people out there that only want to listen to lyrical miracle shyt. There is lyrical miracle rappers that don't care about making songs for mainstream radio.

I don't really see the issue.

I will say this though....there's a difference between being lyrical miracle....caring about lyrics....and not caring about lyrics or bars at all. As an artist I mean. Off the top of my head I can't think of a single artist that had longevity in rap....that flat out didn't care about bars in some capacity. So yeah, that shyt definitely matters.

People who make excuses for whack rappers always pretend there's no vast middle ground between super lyrical and whatever the fukk mumble rappers do. It's hilarious.
