Why does he hate hooks?

I'm not impressed by big words and gimmick flows (SPIRITUAL LYRICAL MIRACLE!) and fast flow that are just the noodly guitars of rap. So gtfoh.

Having a wide ass vocabulary doesn't make you a better Rapper.

btw, not saying that this is what MF DOOM does, but I'm tired of seeing backpack niggas thinking that a Rapper is good because he has a good vocabulary.

Papoose has a good vocabulary, K-rino too, but they are trash.

Would you say that Canibus is better than Nas?

Of course not.

I mean, that chart has Aesop Rock and Busdriver at the top, so it must be objectively correct.

Kys backpack fag.

what ARE you impressed by? what rappers do you like?

I don't know about you but I like Rappers who rap in laymans terms while constructing a good flow with their rhymes and delivery, and if on top of that there is a good story to tell, using nice literary devices that punch you in the face, it's even better

I don't listen to music to hear someone Rap like he is reading a fucking dictionary. Backpack kids who think Rappers who use a big vocabulary are good are just very annoying. And Rappers who force themselves into using 9-syllable words that nobody knows at each lines just sounds pretentious, like they are trying to complicate their songwriting with pointless stuffs. Fuck this shit, I'd rather listen to Ella Fitzgerald singing "doo woo dee boo" than these fucking backpack rappers reading a dictionary.

This pretentious idea of what "good Rap" is, created a lot of low-quality Rap more concerned with rhyming big words with a lot of syllables than to have an entertaining and unique flow that marries well with the beat.

I will always prefer those songs

As for me, I actually like MF DOOM btw, but also Quasimoto, most of the Beast Coast, The Pharcyde, AZ, Vince Staples, Biggie Smalls, J.I.D, Bones-Thugs-n-Harmony, and Masta Ace. A lot of other Rappers but that's what I have in my mind at the moment.

Also Blackalicious
