Them lines are dope. Internal rhyme, multis, metaphors. Socrates used to always try to goad his interlocutors into giving definitions for abstract concepts like Justice and the Good, but even Socrates philosophies can't define how Inspectah Deck be dropping such fire verses.

That's pure hip-hop lyricism 101 my nagga, and that's just one bar. What more do you want?!

Lil' Kim on Desert Storm remix.

People say this is the GOAT female rap verse. I'll never understand it. Her flow was on point, but lyrically was average at best. Wouldn't even crack my top 20 female rap verses. I'm not even sure it's her best verse.


I always thought Lil Kim and Foxy Brown were average. Especially considering they didn't write their own raps. I thought Lauryn Hill was better lyrically and style wise, and Lauryn wrote her own verses.

I never got the Lil Kim Foxy Brown hype.

L Boogs is the female GOAT.

I like Foxy though. I personally think she's a bit underrated TBH. She had ghostwriters in her early career, like a lot of female MCs, so yeah, I can understand why people don't rank her highly, but certainly Lil' Kim wasn't better. Foxy had her own style. Kim was just a weak BIG clone IMO.

Yeah I get that but he ain't say shit. Really he put a few words together that sound good.

Meth and Ghost killed that shit forreal.

Put a few words together that sound good? You aren't giving the man credit. There is a pretty sophisticated rhyme scheme going on there. He constructed extremely vivid and imaginative metaphors, drawing on a wide frame of reference and nailing the theme of the song "Triumph". The concept of the song was to establish the lyrical and cultural dominance of the Wu, and his verse did that perfectly. You could tell too because it had exactly that effect when the joint dropped.

I get a lot of the picks in here, but Deck's verse is pure fire.

Macklemore

When I was in the third grade I thought that I was gay,

'Cause I could draw, my uncle was, and I kept my room straight.

I told my mom, tears rushing down my face

She's like "Ben you've loved girls since before pre-k, trippin'."

Yeah, I guess she had a point, didn't she?

Bunch of stereotypes all in my head.

I remember doing the math like, "Yeah, I'm good at little league."

A preconceived idea of what it all meant

For those that liked the same sex

Had the characteristics

The right wing conservatives think it's a decision

And you can be cured with some treatment and religion

Man-made rewiring of a predisposition

Playing God, aw nah here we go

America the brave still fears what we don't know

And "God loves all his children" is somehow forgotten

But we paraphrase a book written thirty-five-hundred years ago

I don't know

 
Nicki minaj stupid h0e

I get it cracking like a bad back

B&&&h talkin she the queen when she looking like a lab rat

I'm Angelina, you Jennifer come on b((ch you see where Brad at?

Ice my wrist-es then I piss on bitches

You could suck my diznick, if you take these jizzes

You don't like them disses, give my a## some kisses

Yeah they know what this is, give bi$$$hes the business

Cause I pull up and I'm stuntin but I ain't a stuntman

Yes I'm rockin Jordans but I ain't a jumpman

B####hes play the back cuz they know I'm the frontman

Put me on a dollar cause I'm who they trust in

Ayo SB, what the f###'s good?

Them nappy headed h()es, but my kitchen good

I wish I wish I wish I wish a bitch would

NIGGAS WERE LOSING THEIR MIND OVER THAT FLABBY ASS VERSE...

There wasn't anything complicated or extra lyrical about Dear Summer, but it was a nice beat and he rode it nicely.
