Text, and it's relationship to "rap"
I was having a long argument with Nostradamus tonight. He said that text has absolutely NOTHING to do with rap. After almost an hour of arguing, we formulated our main point in the argument. Here is what happened...
Socrates (3:14:02 AM): If, as you say "text has nothing to do with rap", you would NOT be able to turn it into as stated "rap" because it has nothing to do with it. Socrates (3:14:07 AM): Your turn. Nostradamus (3:19:00 AM): LOL...Ok, let me explain where your going wrong. Text is not rap when its sitting on a notepad.. Its just a bunch of words.. Now once someone raps it into a microphone, the vocals are the rapping.. The words that were written on the paper are not the rap.. and infact, they have nothing to do with the rap itself becuase no1 can hear them... like i said before, i could spit out the words from a book, you might call the vocals rap.....but would u say the book has anything to do with rap? no. Please poll with who you think has the most valid point and say why. |
I win, because he stepped outside of the argument. It was not about whether or not text IS rap, it is about whether or not they have any association, which indeed, they do, or else he would not be able to pick up his text and turn it into said "rap".
End of story. |
How can you say text when its written has anything to do with something that is on a MUSIC track. The product is music, text is just a peice of paper with words on it.. They are not anything to do with rap.
My god this was a stupid argument.. And Socrates, youve been wrong the entire argument... You realised you were wrong before so you twisted up the entire argument and made it something else compleatly.. Your pathetic.. |
It is rap, cuz where would rap be without the lyrics.
|
Lyrics are spoken.. Not read. Therefore its not rap at all.
|
Stop swaying and let them decide for themselves. =/
|
I can write poetry, is that rap? No......So how is the lyrics to a song any different.
You cant bump a text album.. And thats the full stop to this argument.. |
Okay, one last time for Nos and everyone else...
THIS IS NOT AN ARGUMENT ABOUT WHETHER TEXT IS RAP. THIS IS ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THEY HAVE ANY CONNECTION AT ALL. PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND Thank you. |
Socrates, your arguing about something compleatly different to what I am. And you switch up the argument every 5 minutes.
U Wan Taco: U Wan Taco: lyrics can be turned into rap music.....but they have nothing to do with rap untill theyve been put down on a mic U Wan Taco: are you seeing that? Word Sizzle: yes U Wan Taco: do you agree? Word Sizzle: no Now that is full of shit. And this thread is closed, I wont be part of a competition when your trying to say the argument is something compleatly different to the point I'm trying to make. |
Re opened. Fuck it let him talk all the shit he wants.. I want people to see how ignorant he is.
For starters. Quote:
SHIT. I WONDER WHY, MAYBE ITS BECAUSE YOU CHANGED THE TOPIC OF ARGUMENT TO SUIT YOURSELF WITHOUT ME KNOWING. :nono: |
When the fuck did I change the argument?
You and I were arguing over whether or not text is rap. You pulled out the definition of rap from a dictionary. Boom. You won. I said I didn't agree STILL but I ALSO said that I can disagree all I want but you were right about that one thing. THEN you said that text had absolutely no relationship with rap and we started arguing about that. But you must have forgotten because you tried saying like 980723017 times what I told you you had already proven. And NO I don't have any proof because once you blocked me on aim, I closed the box, now go ahead and try and call that an excuse, but the least you can fuckin do is not try and sway the shit out of everyone and delete all the extra posts in here. But thats right, you won't do it, because you want to be right too badly. Seriously, shut the fuck up now. |
Give me a fucking break.. I havnt deleted any posts, changed anything. Fact is, text is not rap untill it is spoken on a mic. Thats my argument, I dont care about any other little side arguments you thought we were having because that has nothing to do with what I was saying.
And anyone who votes on this poll is an idiot because were arguing about two different things, you have this little idea that we were arguing about 1 point you were making, and I was arguing about THE REAL ARGUMENT UNCHANGED FROM WHEN WE STARTED and you were still for so long trying to say I was wrong.. WAY AFTER the dictionary shit.. This thread is simply a cover up of you trying to make yourself look right when you are making a compleatly twisted little argument thats compleatly different from mine. And you want to talk about swaying votes, you wrote the thread to corrispond with YOUR argument. Not mine. So whos really swaying here? |

How many fuckin times do I have to tell you? YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT THIS But don't even try to act like you didn't say that text had no relationship to rap. You are right, text is not rap until rapped, but the fact remains, we argued about whether or not text had any relationship with rap. and now you wanna act like we didn't? So don't gimme that bullshit. Close the thread if you think you have made some godly point but the thread is open for the exact reason the title says and you're too pussy to realize that. Really. |

I didnt make any godly point dickhead, dont try and patronize me.. I made an argument and stuck with it.. |
Text is not rap.. Vocals are rap..
Text itself has nothing to do with rap.. Thats something you read.. Rap is something you listen to.. So w/e.. Twist my words up.. Seriously.. |
werd...Txt is associated with writing lyrics.... but its not written to a beat and neither is it vocalised so it doesnt help in rapping. Soc what your sayin is pointless. Nos you have a good point.
|
What you write down on your notepad is your basis: ideas, thoughts and in the end a text that rhymes (if not, it can be considered poetry). Then you spit them to a beat and probably edit a few things here and there to improve your flow.
So if you look at the piece of paper alone, it's not clear whether or not it has a connection with rap...it could but you can also use it as a poem or as the lyrics for another genre of music. But in this context, I believe there is a connection because many of us write some things down which form the basis for the track later. Bleh, it's confusing... DQ |
