OMG see, I never insulted your intelligence when I came back with my piece did I?...so why must you come in here saying that I'm stupid and IGnorant?...

I used Jay-Z as an eXample of a person that uses finess and techniQue, in the punchlines he uses he incorporates, metaphors and wordplay and many other techniQues that are ALL related to poetry directly...so what you're talking about, I don't know...

poetry isn't all about love and things like that, obviously you've never red REAL poets besides the ones you see on boards and shit that cover the SAME topics...Langston Hughes poetry was political, just like some rap is...it's all about how you cover a topic..."FUCK THE POLICE" was political, they just chose to eXpress it in a more angry way than the "average" poet would have, but it's STILL a form of poetry!!...

you're getting all fired up and emotional like I don't understand that there's more to rap than just lyrics, I understand that, but my point is that the lyrics in rap music are related to poetry, not the music behind it...

you know what, FUCK it, rap IS only about lyrics...if you have a beat, it's just a beat, what makes rap RAP, is the lyrics...and lyrics, no matter what genre of music they're in, are aform of poetry...

maybe some other people on here live in this "textcee" world you're talkin' about but I don't...I haven't done text in forever, I just don't post tracks here any more cuz it's pointless...

P.S. again, quit trying to be-little other eople's intelligence in your fight to argue your point, it's NOT needed...you only resort to such unintelligent elementary commentary when you feel like you're "losing" the argument...and as I said before, it's not about winning or losing to me...I just want you to open your eyes and see that you're NOT 100% correct all the time, and this is one of those times you're not correct...
