Poets vs. Rappers
IP: 00FA 9D68
I have been a poet since 7th grade. I tried rapping a few times but I could never freestyle so I left it alone. Then when I bought the black album last year, Jay-Z made me want to rap again. I stayed with it for about a month which is the longest i've ever stayed with it, but I realized that it just wasn't for me. I was my very best as a poet. The only thing that disappoints me is, poets will never garner as much respect as rappers. Poets (paricularly males) are often looked at as gay, feminine, wanna be revolutionaries and wanna be rappers. We are viewed as flighty arrogant and very critical of rappers. We are basically thought of as haters. The only image of us that is slightly positive is Def Poetry Jam. I am a great poet. And I am an emcee in the respect that true lyricists are poets when you take away the music. But my question to you is what do u think about poets, and them supposedly living in the shadow of rappers. Is one better than the other? I personally like listening to rap better than going to open mics, because I feel rappers are more authentic sometimes, but what do u think?

See I get confused when yall say stuff like that, cuz all of my poetry has a topic to it. So I guess yes and no becuz all I do is write poetry, and songs (for vocalist, not rappers) but I do come up with conceptuals for my friends who are rappers, but they usually have some kind of vocal element to them.

I do topicals. But I will be relesing a Poetry peice on this site probably tonight.
I like Poetry that flows and rhymes. But what seperates it from rapping is the diversity of structures that are available. However rapping is 10 times better then Poetry IMO. |

I prefer Rap, but theres nothing wrong with most poetry, I mean, Poetry can become much deeper and more emotional Namsayin, but Rap is better
