Why is it cool to hate conscious and lyrical rappers on here?

    idk tbh, but I like both from Yachty to Royce, there's just a time and place for both their songs.

    And it's not just the conscious part. I love rappers like common and talib. It's just Kendrick is corny that's all, you'll accept it one day

    Honestly you shouldn't care what people on an internet forum think, like what you want and move on,

    I don't agree with a lot of people here, but i mean at the end of the day it's just music, and some people, whether they're in the sxn 80 community or not take it way too seriously

    Lyrical rap is boring most of the time, I don't give a f--- about how many words you can string together. That's why Royce sucks, dude just raps, that's it, there's nothing interesting about his music.

    Exactly one type of rap isn't better or worse that's what I was getting at. You can like fun party s--- and backpacker s--- too some people just don't understand that

    literally the exact opposite. people poopoo wayne and thug because "ITS JUST MONEY b------s AND COKE :^) HOW IMMATURE, I LIKE MY RAP TO BE REAL SO I ONLY LISTEN TO SONGS ABOUT THE STRUGGLE"

    literally "I only listen to mature music for mature adults, such as myself!"

    even using "lyrical miracle" as a term to define the rappers your defending is defeating your own argument, lol. why are you trying to use a negative trope in an argument for something not being corny? that's so counter productive. also spiritual lyrical miracle rap =/= conscious rap, so again i think you're fighting two different battles here.

    btw who is "most if not all other" rappers being trashed that fit this scope? because it seems to me you're just talking about kendrick in particular.

    no, i say he's corny because he did a really, really corny thing in hitting tupac up thru a ouiji board and getting his cosign for that bizarre interview at the end of TPAB, because if any other rapper in the world, ANY other rapper did that they'd be laughed straight out of the industry. Not a single rapper who's name isn't kendrick lamar would have gotten away with that. And to throw it on the end of an album that he calls a jazz record or whatever the f--- pretentious bs he labeled it as was just so lame and cornball.

    idk what this sentence means so imma dead this item

    the difference between people who like and actively seek conscious rap and those who don't are that the ones who don't don't listen to music to make themselves look smarter. they don't even affiliate intelligence with music taste because that's f---ing r-----ed.

    it's a tired [heh] cliche at this point, but the reason people would vote against j cole is because j cole is s---.

    eminem has never at any point even been the "greatest" "lyricist" alive, let alone of all time. he's only gone hill since his prime and right now he's just a joke. of course he's inferior to all types of rappers. he's washed up.

    i dont base music i like on the other people that listen to it, i base it on whether im enjoying listening to it, and listening to hood sob story #4108 isn't fun anymore after 20 years of the same s--- from the same types of lames

    man, like, you're just assuming things and coming up with excuses for other people's shortcomings
    i don't even understand why you're defending royce
    there's a reason that no one knew who or where royce was between the time him and eminem beefed and the time they made up
    its because no one gave a s--- about royce because he's a bad rapper

    No one said that and lyrical miracle john blaze s--- can be a positive or negative trope

    btw who is "most if not all other" rappers being trashed that fit this scope? because it seems to me you're just talking about kendrick in particular.

    Kendrick Cole Logic Em Royce Wale Lupe Joey Bad and many many more

    no, i say he's corny because he did a really, really corny thing in hitting tupac up thru a ouiji board and getting his cosign for that bizarre interview at the end of TPAB, because if any other rapper in the world, ANY other rapper did that they'd be laughed straight out of the industry. Not a single rapper who's name isn't kendrick lamar would have gotten away with that. And to throw it on the end of an album that he calls a jazz record or whatever the f--k pretentious bullshyt he labeled it as was just so lame and cornball.

    When did he label it a jazz album and many people have used Pacs voice on their records for various reasons


    the difference between people who like and actively seek conscious rap and those who don't are that the ones who don't don't listen to music to make themselves look smarter. they don't even affiliate intelligence with music taste because that's f--king r-----ed.

    Im speaking from a perspective in which I like conscious rap, lyrical rap, and fun party rap



    eminem has never at any point even been the "greatest" "lyricist" alive, let alone of all time. he's only gone hill since his prime and right now he's just a joke. of course he's inferior to all types of rappers. he's washed up.
