The thing with rapping is that it's not very hard. You just gotta understand language and wordplay. These lyrical miracle rappers thought they were doing something unbelievable when they really weren't. Any educated school kid can learn how to become a good rapper very easily.

But this is where you see the difference between being a great "rapper" and being a great writer. Guys like Cyhi. Lupe. Mickey factz. These rap dweebs have tried to fool the public into thinking the lyrical miracle shyt was the standard of great lyricism when the truth is that style of writing is very amateurish. The true barometer of a great lyricist is a guy who can not only rap great but can also write great songs.

These guys can come up with metaphors and triple entendres til they're blue in the face. But ask em to write a halfway decent song and you'll see how limited they really are with the pen. Can't really call yourself a great lyricist when the only thing you're great at is clever wordplay. If your writing can't captivate the listeners then you're not a great lyricist. Period. I guarantee you "today was a good day" was a hundred times harder for cube to write than it was for Lupe to write "mural".

These rap nerds are just bitter because they realize the public figured out their whole style was a facade from the beginning. That's why these straight A students can replicate what they do with relative ease. But those straight A students could still never write a "Juicy". Or a "keep ya head up". That's not just great rapping. It's great writing. Great imagination. Not just using words in witty ways. But using words in a way that can pierce the psyche of the listener. That's real elite lyricism.

Maybe Kanye loyalty?
Kanye literally negates what he is saying though and I get what he’s trying to say but being in the streets doesn’t automatically make you interesting and have lived life and just because you went to college doesn’t mean you haven’t had a wealth of experiences.

Street nikkas think somebody want to hear them talk about that half a brick they moved in 2001 for the 100th time :pachaha:

Cyhi clearly talking about J Cole. Need to focus less on hating and focusing more on getting his paperwork right. Maybe then somebody will actually hear his music somewhere other than a power 105 freestyle or unreleased track from youtube :pachaha:

Hating on somebody else and he can't release a song until 5 cacs give him the go ahead.
