First thing I thought when I read the title was Busta Rhymes on that joint with Chris Brown..

Let's go!
'Cause I feel like I'm running
And I'm feeling like I gotta get away, get away, get away
Better know that I don't and I won't ever stop
'Cause you know I gotta win everyday day, day, go!

See they don't really wanna pop me
Just know that you never flop me
And I know that I can be a little cocky
You ain't never gonna stop me
Every time I come a nikka gotta set it,
Then I gotta go, and then I gotta get it
Then I gotta blow
And then I gotta shudder any little thing that nikka think he be doing
'Cause it doesn't matter, 'cause I'm gonna dadadada
Then I'm gonna murder every thing and anything a badaboom a badabing
I gotta do a lot of things, to make it clearer to a couple nikkas
That I'm always winning and I gotta get it again, and again, and again

And I be doing it to death and now I move a little foul
A nikka better call a ref, and everybody knows my style
And nikkas know I'm the the best when it come to doing this
:mjlol: horrid

After break your neck he just couldn't let it go

He's right but sometimes you have to switch it up or your songs get stale

Haha he's not wrong. Double time sounds impressive because it fits in the pockets so perfectly and it's fast, so people think it's impressive.

But generally to fit that mold you gotta dumb down what you're saying. If you had an album, or even a whole song of droppin detailed knowledge gems in double time, the listener would be like:merchant::wtf:

Twista's 'Adrenaline Rush' album is the EXACT opposite of this

You're so dumb
Wow
It is the same content...Drugs and materialism...The only difference is that Jay Z has a bigger vocabulary than Chief Keef...But the content is damn near identical...

Where as, if you listen to Canibus vs Chief Keef, the difference in content is so APPARENT...

Thats a bit presumptuous..
It is NOT...The majority of the CONTENT is the same...That is what I am arguing...The packaging is different...

Of course, I can hear the difference in delivery between Chief Keef and Jay Z, but like Schoolboy Q is saying, if you take way all the aesthetics, is Jay Z' content really that different from Chief Keef's?

And don't get caught up into a "Jay Z vs Chief Keef" argument, that is not the point....The point is some of these so called great lyricists with bars, have the SAME content as the wack MCs, but of course the packaging and delivery are different...

A Harvard educated Nazi and Trailerpark trash Nazi may have the same content, but the Harvard educated Nazi may have a better way or more sophisticated way of presenting that content...The content is the same, but the articulation is different...

Lyrical ability somehow makes lyrical content more acceptable.
It's funny to me how when Keef and the whole Chicago scene came around everyone accused them of promoting violence and drug use as if that's a new concept in hip-hop.
