[Mr. Leonidas]

Lupe Fiasco

 

[The Ruler 09]

his style is terrible to me..just becuz he using big words doesn't impress me..all that astrological,hypnopotical shyt sound aight only when certain rappers do it,like canibus in his prime..it's a reason why this dude been out for all these years and would never be able to drop a halfway likeable song to the masses

That says a lot about your knowledge. He's exceptional not terrible, it's not about big words, it's about the usage and effectiveness of the words. And he's elite level at that. That's a very ignorant view point, if you don't know it isn't always about talent then I don't know what to say to you.

Dawg... what is K Rino doing that you consider lyricism?

You should like K-Rino, he's not a Nas fan lol.

Crooked is definitely dope at his peak, he's a great lyricist.

K-Rino has displayed pretty much everything lyrically, bar possibly a real club song.

Im not dissin dude and I dont base who I like on who other rappers like. But duke sounds to me in the mold of a Canibus, and I dont consider nikkaz using big words or talking about lightning and shyt as lyricism. Literary devices equal lyricism.
