in the real world, the average "good" rapper will prolly get 60-75% of the cats with the experience to like it and 40-25% that dont. but there's still that remaining percentage out there that you can get. till its 100%, its not perfect. period. i personally feel i'm averaging 80-something. i wont put out a track till i know it'll get a number like that and that comes from knowing your audience.
get me?

OK i feel ya..
(Take in mind im pretty fucked up right now...i had a few many too many shots)
but for the kind of music i make, like if its a song about sex and getten girls.. i try to use lines that other poeple( who get girls and fuck them) will understand be like " damn i do that same thing" and i try to word it so that if anyone who listens to it, who gets girls, would learn something if they never tried that move before.... so basically what ever the song is about i try to speak there language... ya feel... becuase every life style has its own lil language and things that everyone in that life style can relate too..
so basically rather than writing lines that only the poeple who speak that " language" can understand i try my best to make it that people interested in listening can understand it also..
( i could re read this and fix up some shit and make sure im maken sense, but i dont really feel like it at the moment so i HOPe it makes sense)
My fault if you dont understand what im trying to explian..
