has to do with actual rhymes, what your saying, your flow, your cadence, your delivery.
thats what lyrical entails. Ask anybody and they will tell you.
so IT might have some of the nicest lines or the dopest topics on a song, but if its not executed well and comes off smooth, its not as good.
I don't know if you ever rhymed in your life, but I use to rhyme and I say use too cuz I don't take it serious anymore.
an making a rhyme sound effortless and filled with emotion is not easy to do.
Thats why Eminem is considered one of the best, he says what he says and not only is it dope, but it flows well, its never off flow, and its delivered with passion. Immortal tecnique is hard on the ears sometimes
understandable enough really, i havent got too much problem with this
but in rap you need, Conistency, intresting concepts/subjects, lyircal content as well as the flow/cadence AND to top it off you need the voice
in my opinion only Eminem, Rakim and Tech Snag all of these things but that doest nessacarily make them the only good rappers as some times specific good points compensate for weaker points
really well good examples are Jay-Z, Jean Grae AND i.t.
iv ryhmed before, havent really got the voice but its still fun from time to time.
