    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

    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)

    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.

    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

    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.

    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

    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.
