Sep 26, 2017 you're such a goofball, lol. it IS used exclusively by detractors. no one calls music "mumble rap" as anything but a pejorative. you've posted on this board plenty of times that you don't even care about/listen to lyrics in music. this is cute but i'm actually the only one in here making reasoned, nuanced arguments about the nature of genre
Sep 26, 2017 I call certain artists mumble rappers and half my music playlist are people like 21 Savage.
Sep 26, 2017 he's right though. do you genuinely think more people give a f--- about 1) joey badass saying f--- america or 2) kodak black singing about money, cars, b------s, drugs etc ???? Cause 1 artist is a lot hotter than the other in terms of mainstream appeal and it's not Joey. (I like joey better)
Sep 26, 2017 and this is why i said conscious rap isn't a positive in the other thread you get people like this
Sep 26, 2017 since when is "lyrical ability" "songwriting"? Cause that was the word used to make the point I responded to. i'm not talking about lyrical ability.
Sep 26, 2017 There's lots of s--- I enjoy and still consider mumble rap, so this is incorrect, also, @413 literally just disproved this theory along side me We're not discussing lyrics though are we? We're discussing vocal delivery, which is very relevant to my listening, and is actually what we're talking about when arguing over "mumble rap". Keep up. a) you're not b) literally put him on ignore, ASAP, he is a gigantic moron that no one takes seriously c) this was aimed at me, not you, as he's a bitter little twat that can't handle arguments
Sep 26, 2017 joey badass is rote and derivative (and i like the guy). kodak, especially on his early work, was a much better writer and technical rapper.
Sep 26, 2017 Joey Badass - Survival Tactics n----s don't want war I'm a martian with an army of spartans Sparring with a knife in a missile fight Get your intel right, your intelligence is irrelevant But it's definite I spit more than speech impediments Brooklyn's the residence, the best and it's evident We got them n----s P-E-Nuts, like they elephants Kodak Black - Up in Here I f--- with Reckless, that my n----- 'cause he authentic Got lil Rex on the beat and I am not friendly I get stupid on a n-----, like I'm autistic Ain't do the show without my tooly, I ain't finna do it Every time you see me out, I be f---in' booted
Sep 26, 2017 Yeah but thats what he meant as is evident but what he was replying to and - ima need some links pls
Sep 26, 2017 This. is it just a lot of multiple syllable words that rhyme? is it just big rhyming words? cause i think i'd make an OK lyricist "luVER is a mutha f---er"
Sep 26, 2017 honestly you're a moron when it comes to talking about rap music and for someone who doesn't like any of it you sure like to talk about it a lot. also, arguing with you is a lost cause because you are one of the most stubborn people on this forum who thinks they are 100% right all the time.
Sep 26, 2017 no i meant do people actually cherry pick parts of verses and try to paint their entire body of work with one example unironically
