Do these young rappers rap off-beat on purpose or can they just not rap on beat?

[Dusty Bake Activate]

I don’t get it. So many of these young 20ish rappers don’t rap on beat. And usually they’re a slight bit too early the whole time.

I can’t tell if that’s just their style or if they just can’t stay on beat, perhaps due to excessive drug use.

Does anyone know?

But I agree a lot of off beat. I don't think it's their style, they're just wacc

They don't do quality control in the studio. The rush everything out. Mix that with drugs etc etc. And the fact a lot of these nikkas aint even been rapping for long and are amateurs who got hot off a song. That's the thing these days. The line between amateur and pro is blurred cause of the internet and the ease of getting the music to the masses these days.

Dudes don't give a damn about the art.
The women got better cadence and deliveries. We never seen shyt like this.

You just have a stiff and boring sense of timing that needs development.

Listen to a Marvin Gaye or Teddy Pendergrass album.

When u get right, the soul takes over.

I enjoy it just as much as on beat rapping.


When they come in early, it makes drops more anticipated.

when they come in late, it makes u think and reflect.

one of my favorite is examples is this hook

they're trying to unlock new flows so a lot of it is experimental

Some if them be off drum beat but in the melody beat. Like how rza does. Most people think rza is off beat...he doesn't rap to the drum beat how most rappers do...he raps to the melody.

I won't give most these young jits that genius tho. They just amateurs.

I never was a fan of off beat rappers...E-40, Sillk, Suga Free these guys grew on me and I can appreciate their style...these new cats are a different story

Matter fact, would you compare some of this offbeat rapping to....I think it's called skatting?

Where the people are actually kinda talking over the beat. Now that's not the same as what rza does, cause he's on beat, just a different beat than people are aware of.

So are these new artists closer to skat?
