Is Keystyle legit?
im thinkin that verbally freestylin is like my only way of life these days... but when i see a keystyle or try it... well it's kind of a lame 2nd best...
Does anybody agree that we should just call it pre written text verses... A. cuz it's debatable how off da tip a "keystyle" is and B. there are a bunch of wack liars who pretend their hours of work are "keystyles" holla back y'all {Peace} |
damn gd thread...
i agree wit wot ya sayin they claim its a keystyle but it never is...... it makes em look better |
Your exactly right...
It all depends how fast you type... Lol... Pz... |
^^lmao.....true also
it is a stereotype now....its jus given tha name keystyle even if it isnt |
When i keystyle, i write down, what pops in to my head.. w/ out changing my lines afterword.. =)..so yea i keystyle. same as freestyle only with keys o.O..when i pre write, i re read my verse & edit things in or out .. i think thats the diff between keysyle & a prewrittin
|
But while you scribblin down the first line are you already thinkin ahead to the punch and the followup?
and then where does the line get drawn? {Peace} |
keystyle and freestyle are too different.....
when ya doin live freestylin'......thats wen ya say wot pops into ya head... keystyle can b changd even if ya say ya dnt change it... whereas live battlin' n rhymin is pure........straight off tha top...... |
Word yo....My fingers have a mind of their own... Yeaaaa :rolleyes:
Nobody keystyles...it's just a moronic word that some net/textcee made up to try and make text more like audio. |
When I see "Keystyle" in the title of an Open Mic I never read it.
|
i keystyle like a motherlover
|
I think it's fair to say.. that almost everyone..
Writes somethin down quick.. but reads it afterwards & makes a few adjustments.. |
all i do is keystyle
i cant stand spending more than 10 min on a piece KEYSTYLE= Real, just typin of the dome rhyme for rhyme....it possible. it may b wack but watch "i keystyle while typin on keyboards, mc better stop hating before they get washed up more than a seashore, this aint tight, its just type, saying keystylin is fake just aint "write""-20 seconds then thers always the fact that they can delete/erase or edit it whenever they want. but same as freestyles....it could prewritten or rehearsed acting like its coming off the dome keystyles and freestyles......just gotta trust them or decide for yourself if its legit |
Obviously we have some people who agree with me...
I don't think "textcee's" or "keystylers" are as credible as rappers... How do you know that your flow is going to be read correctly? I used to post a bit of stuff on this forum, but it didn't make sense after awhile cuz nobody could hear how it sounds... this is why real emcees are successful and people buy cds... nobody gives much cred to the text rappers or is running out to buy their books... ...unless... you count poets and poetry anthologies, that is the area some of the 'textcees" should be focusing on... {Peace} |
People Can Slag Off Pre-writers, But In Truth You Also Do It!!! But Yea A Keystyle Is Ment To Be Off The Top Of Your Haed But Often Aint!!

...*writes down his name on list of people to never read* |
Well.. he proved he could didnt he?
..But yeah i think he should stick to prewriting. |
llol

yea i attempted to accept keystylin all over again... and... well... no.
it's just to extremes, on one hand you have live freestyle and it's on the left of the spectrum on the other you have pre written verses that are like all the way on the other side.... BUT i shouldn't even use this spectrum analogy cuz anything in between is just a half assed attempt at one of the sides... it's like eating and drinking... any food/drink that tries to fly in between is walkin a pretty fuckin thin line... {Peace} |

No i dont agree.. I key up things, i do it in the normal freestyle sence as well..
except in stead of spitting straight and fast going for however long i can flow for i go line by line. i look at the personas name im about to face, then i spit a line. that line then sets the normal/avgerage length for the rest of my bars, i go line by line, i dont type anything up untill i have to post my battle and i dont save/pre writ my shit.. Theres no point right now since my mic ISNT FUCKING WORKING AN NO ONE CAN SEEM TO HELP MY ASS. but its cool So yes in my eyes it is legit, although! SOME TIMES i do admit to subtracting a word, or adding a word in order to help my flow... so now im not sure whats i think?? LoL Because the general diss, line IS still there.. except mayb it doesnt say the word BUt or ANd, r this time it has If instead to well. SO really as of now im not making a decisons of what i think.. |
exactly my point... outcome...
I know it is possible to do something very much like an adlib... on a keyboard or paper... but does it really measure up? |

I don't think ahead when I'm freestylin...you dont' have time. If anyone says they do, they're a damn liar...or not really a freestyler. Keystyling is called keystyling for a reason. There's no way you can type a verse on the I-net as fast as you can freestyle. Freestyle's you have material to work off of standing directly in front of you. Keystyle's you gotta remember shit that's happened earlier, of course you do have their sig/custom title/posts in thread/avatar/location to work with. It all depends really. I do the majority of my verses in 10-15 mins. As I told Chrit last night...one verse took me an hour...but I was typing a Psych paper at the same time. |
It Does Depend On How Fast You Can Type...
I've Done A Keystyle Before, And I Know When Some Cats Are Lying... You Can Tell In A Battle That They're Laying When They Say It Was A Keystyle, But The Verse Has Capitals And Looks All Fancy... |
I can type over 100wpm...it has nothing to do with how fast you type. It's how fast you think, and what's the point of keystyling if you don't think up a dope verse when you do it?
|
It Does Have To Do With How Fast You Can Type...
If You Can Type Faster Than The Other Dude, You'll Obviously Get In More Lines In The Same Amount Of Time... |
^Virtually every battle has line maximum's minimum's...you my friend, are an idiot.
|
N-demik perfectly explained this. . Why are you people still debating?
