Do you like harmonic rap (singing mixed with rap)?
 

I currently have a good 3-5 songs written that can be rapped or I can sing in a rapping manner. So I am wondering if you all enjoy some 1 adding a different feel to there style, sort of like Afro Man/Nate Dogg who add's a harmony in there lyrics to made it r&b'ish but can still be considered rap. Actually Nelly does it to, and i actually like it now.

So do you all enjoy singing in rap. Or does it depend on the person.

I posted something in the Audio section just recently that started off as a joke, once i got the good feedback i went ahead and wrote some new shit. If you want to check it out, it's there titled "2 In Ya Chest - Singing Version"

So leave me your thoughts on this topic, and if u want to peep that leave it on that thread.

It depends. I love 70's Soul samples as background vocals. But for R Kelly/Jay Z type of collaborations, not really feeling it. Few songs come out really dope, like street dreams remix, and regulate..but the majority of the tracks I just aint feeling...

yea it depends, like sum bone thugs shi hellz yea shits gangsta but nelly type a shi is like yo he aint even rappin he backstreet boying not hatin on nelly cuz he do his thing u know but u know wut i mean

Jurassic 5 is excellent, and they have harmonic vocals at times. That's the best example I can think of. It does sound awful if done wrong though.

Peace

I'd Say J5 Are More Of A Barbershop Quartet Than Harmonic Rap, But I Kno Wha You Mean..

Moka Only Is A Good Example..

Altho Some Of His Solo Shit Is Repetitive..

Your Basically Sayin, Bone Thugs N Harmony .. And They Is Dope .. They've Been Dope .. One Of Tha reasons I got Into Rappin' ..

If u wanna do tha melodic thing, don't cross all in the RnB section. Like they said, Bone Thugs, or even Ja Rule's style works 4 rappin. Not a whole lotta Boys 2 Men head flutterin goin on, y'know? Keep it basic.

I think that the rapping-singing mixture is cool as hell, jus as long as you got the right peepz doing it. Like Twiztid, they do that shit. I recommend you listen to that shit....

Yeah i like it myself. Glad you all like it to, because now im going to get some responses from my people i havent holla'd at, and see what they opinions is.

So far the people on the net like it. So i'll go grab some more offnet responses.

Heres the link to mine i posted here.
