    i hate to be that guy but imagine some of y'all had to read poetry or something

    op got this bait off and went to be with his family

  • let's define what rapping about "something" means

  • Kendrick's verse on THat Part is perfect example of rapping about nothing

    What’s the explanation on how this relates to Ab Soul and Kendrick @op @krishna_bound

    in a different thread i was talking about how ab-soul historically had a habit of saying things that are really provocative sounding but don't mean anything and also that kendrick at least used to have a habit of doing that on a lot of his younger projects and features.
    was more of an observation than hating since i like both artists obviously, i dont see how anyone can deny that though

    I always felt like Kendrick had some nonsense gibberish bars that were based on just trying to be good at rhyming

    Got any examples of an ab soul line, I thought he’s usually better about that than Kendrick like even if it’s not that deep it at least makes some sense

    Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar
    Say, say, say
    I come from murder one, brung late night melee
    Say, say, say
    We hung all summer, sprung mattress with bae bae
    Say, say, say
    Trippin' off Dyke and my name strike with pay day
    Say, say, say
    Flippin' blue lightnin', tightenin', strapped with AK
    Say, say, say
    OG one, told me one, show me one, eight ways
    How to segue
    P****, power, profit and headache
    I reminisce my life innocence or life innocent
    Or life intimate, with fame
    Light limo tint with light women, dark women in it
    Aw, Kenny, good game
    She wanna hang with a Starboy
    The sun and the moon and star, boy
    Astronomer, anonymous
    I line 'em up, we grind 'em up, there's nine of us
    And five of us have probably f***ed
    She mollied up, I tallied up all the parts, boy
    Twenty legs, arms, head (Head)
    Head, head, more head (Head)
    Oh God, bless the dead (Yup)
    I'm livin' life, high off life
    I wear my chokes off to bed
    I'm the greatest nigga, why you scared to say it?
    I wanna rock, I wanna rock
    I wanna cop more land, I never stop
    I wanna quick advance on a bill if it ain't one
    Break everything, I'm a hustler, came from

    topically the song makes sense but this verse is basically just nonsense

    I get you but I guess I think of that as a whole different category. I put that more in the category with Ghostface rapping “nonsense”, its kind of like the whole point. That’s one of my favorite verses of all time tbh, idk how self aware he was or just d***ged out but truly insane s***

    That’s kind of what I was saying in the original thread, it wasn’t a diss about skill, it was just talking about how some rappers say provocative sounding stuff sometimes that doesn’t actually mean anything

    what if no rapper raps about anything, ever?
