TEXTERS will tell you a bar is two sentences. Anyone who knows what 16 bars are knows that a bar is one line.

Don't believe me? Look in the dictionary for the deifnition of Bar in a musical sense.

^^^ this is right. LMAO @ two 'lines' = 1 bar.

and fyi - it can always vary depending on the beat, but for a 90 BPM beat (the usual for hip hop) 12-14 syllable "bars" is average. word.

I guess texters have mad long verses once they learn how to do audio and realize they've been spitting 32's, not 16's all this time. hahahaha
