|
Yo, I agree on biggie but you cant leave out snoop, dre, or TUPAC

I don't know. Maybe theres someone out there that like grunts and does caveman language over beats :huh: Im sure that emcee wouldn't haven any sense of lyricisim.. |
so then there is a skill category outside of lyricism, that an emcee can have?
the most skilled barking emcee? DMX how narrowminded of me |
Quote:
yes there is skills outside of Lyricism Flow is one....you can have good lyrics ...but if you have shit flow it makes it suck ass |
well that doesn't seem logical to me...
you can't have flow unless you have good lyrics, i mean i pay no mind to flow if the lyrics are shitty, but i could listen to tight lyrics and think it has bad flow.... do i make any sort of sense? mmm... maybe we have diff. meanings of what constitutes as good lyrics i guess i feel that an emcee's skill should first and foremost be lyricism... i don't typically gauge emcee's on flow... that is secondary to lyrics in my opinion... |
^ flow is how liquidy they sound... if they fit the beat... if they can control their breath properly... it has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual content of the lyrics...
I judge rappers in 3 categories: Flow Delivery Lyrics (split into wordplay and rhyming) id rather have an awesome flow and average lyrics than awesome lyrics and a crappy flow anyway, answering your question... the most lyrically skilled MC's, in no order: Rakim Canibus Redman Nas Big L GZA Eminem Cormega Method Man KRS-One |

it is first and foremost lyricism, but you cant understand the lyrics as good with out the flow....they kinda go hand in hand...you have to have both or it wont be as good |
Rakim

i gotta agree wit dat right der' |
omg lyricism means that the lyrics are way more complex and clever and shit thats what i meant by the most lyrical
|
Um...If there not Lyrical, how the fuck are they an emcee?
Sign language on the mic. This is worse then the "pac's alive!!!!!!!!" threads. |
Quote:
agreeable... ^^Bruk just summed up what my initial point was, my point was directed at the thread's question... "who is the most lyrical mc"... when it comes down to it, it's really who's the best emcee... what is an emcee if not lyrical? a rock n roll star... |
Quote:
yea, thats how def I am... |
blah......
You know what..... MuhThugga is the most lyrical emcee I hate that word, "lyrical" It sounds retarded |

|
Off the jump ... Tupac of course ... Besides him ... Pun ... Thought ... Big L ... Kweli ... Mos ... BIG ... Andre ... Face ... Jay ... And ohters ... LoL ... But to narrow it down to one ... I think Pac

I dunno man ... I know some people who cosider Chingy and Nelly MC's ... LoL |
let me say something lyrics aren't everything i mean you can't just have lyrics. If you don't have emotion or meaning in ya rhymes then who cares. Some people just say something cuz it's "lyrical". Tupac had good lyrics(not tha best)but he had meaning and emotion that's why he sold not just lyrics.

For lyrics that accually bring meaning...
Tu-pac, Nas, DMX, and me mind went blank... LOL I think Kanye west will become a good lyricist. If he writes his own shit, you know... |
by lyrically, do you mean what there saying in there lyrics or are you saying diversly, what type of lyrical schemes they use, and how well the use them to say there lyrics, if that's the case, i beleive biggie, and eminem are pretty good although eminem uses the same m.o now. with those multis.

tupac wasnt good at lyrics
