Please tell me this line doesn't sum up all lyrical rappers ??

[juelz21]

if you rhymin 9 syllables about lame fabricated murder shit though, you still ain't lyrical.

no depth = no lyricism

it's entertainment breh

 

[Soho Fresco]

lol, man..thats what i heard in his verse

loaks, cloaks, and shit

 

[juelz21]

wtf is a loak??

u mean loc?

yes he does. Lupe's metaphors are based on basic things, usually personification actually.

Bis basie his metaphors on scientific theories. just a whole different ball game.

exactly u just proved my point for me that's all canibus makes reference to I'm fearless

Now hear this

I'm earless

And I'm peerless

That means I'm eyeless

Which means I'm tearless-Which means my iris resides where my ears is

Which means I'm blinded

But I'm gonna find it I can feel it's nearness

But I'm gonna veer so I don't come near

Like a chicken or a deer

But I remember I'm not a listener or a seer so my windshield smear

Here, you steer, I really shouldn't be behind this, clearly cause my blindness

The windshield is minstrel, the whole grill is roadkill, so trill and so sincere. Yeah, I'm

Both them there

Took both pills, when a bloke in a trench coat and the locs in the chair had approached him

Here

And he clear as a ghost, so a biter of the throats in the mirror

The writer of the quotes for the ghosts who supplier of the notes to the living

Riveting is rosy, pockets full of posies, given to the mother of the deceased. Awaken at war,

'til I'm restin' in peace.

the line i boled is one big metaphor basically lupe is saying the world is full of coons and he ran over them canibus can't come up with metaphors like that

 

[juelz21]

cory guns is boo boo

j cole is the definition of boo.

Nah man...the purpose of this thread is to talk about lyrical cats that try to hard and are technical and shit

I get the whole song....menstrual = bloody period yada yada

im just saying these lyrical cats like lupe are stubborn and annoying...why did he have to have a dude in the video saying "niggas don't want to hear big words lu" ?..why did he put that video out as a single when he clearly knew it didn't sound like one...These dudes are rebellious for no reason.

 

[Calii Comfort]

i can respect some one being lyrical but some dudes over due it and it just sounds retarded

 

[usmarin3]

lol at thinking big words making someone lyrical, being lyrical is painting a picture using (metaphors, wordplay, double entandres, alliteration, similes,etc).

lupe imo does'nt fit the definition of this thread because he is actually a intelligent a dude like chino xl and ungergrounds rappers like pack fm they fit the definition of your thread.

[Calii Comfort]

chino xl,ras kass,k-rino, and illogic only lyrical dudes i bump oh and canibal ox

rest of those dudes are repetitive as fuck

I understand where you're coming from but don't he still rub you the wrong way?...like if you don't agree with hip hop the way he does..he'll say some slick shit.
He got that Krs 1 attitude and he better cut it out before he becomes old and bitter later on in life just like him.

From when he got mad at soulja boy because the kid said he don't like his music and talking about pretty lyrical swag? At least he only dissed him with a bar instead of a whole song unlike krs did with nelly...come on man

Wow, talk about reading too much into shit. Did i say that's all there is to it, don't put words in my mouth dude, it's a combination of many things. Learn to to read with critical thinking skills!

 

[daboyskill]

you don't know that

show me a KRS-ONE & canibus spelling bee

lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Jonas.dini]

Cool story dog... that cali agents cd was wack too

[omega_blak]

I think the only kats that get mad at or overly critical of these so called lyrical emcees for using an extensive vocabulary are the ones who either don't have the mental capacity to understand what the MC is talkin about or the ones who rhyme themselves but can't put lyrics together the way those so-called lyrical dudes can. If you don't like emcees with a vocab....just don't listen. They're obviously not making music for YOU.

"It's like, how in the hell do these cats even sell?

Be spittin big words your ass can't even spell

Stars and quasars, a hundred and ten bars"

Niggas shouldn't turn to hiphop if they want wisdom , just go and read a book instead. Most of these lyrical rappers are just pseudo-intellectuals who throw big words around.

Ok, usually people who use the term "big words" are too dumb to appreciate anything with any intellectual value. Does that mean everything should be simple and dumb? No. If it were up to your ignorant ass, we would still be in "blackface" and you would be co-signing shit, talking about "Oh it's just entertainment." Shut ya dumb ass up.

 

[ibedamned]

bis has more complex metaphors than lupe

Id rather listen to lupe tho
