I don't get what the difference between lyricist and writer is ? lyr·i·cist (lr-sst) n. A writer of song lyrics. Also called lyrist. are we just talking about how he did rhyme some technically unrhymable words together sometimes or what? Cause even if that's what you were referring to you can still call him a bad writer? I mean it's just semantics but you guys seem to be arguing for the point i was making earlier, yet argued it.
Personally, I was referring to the fact that his lyrics aren't as complex as some other rappers, but the lyrics he wrote got his point across in such a wonderful way, and his lyrics seemed to be more passionate and intelligent than other rappers who had more lyrical complexity.
OK that makes sense. I agree with you TNS. I still view him as better lyricist than almost any rapper i've heard. I know there are some rappers who can rhyme some ridiculous words together and more complex (mos def comes to mind) and some (possibly many) have a better flow. But Especially since i'm not a rap or hip hop purist, I think 2pac's simplicity but open vulnerability says more than alot of the rappers who rhyme with complexity. And it's not like he's just saying skeet skeet on your face for 16 bars like alot of today's 'rap.' Simplicity with all music seems to reach a larger audience because it can touch on issues that more people can relate with.
Very good points. I agree with you I hate "pop" rap. lol Most of the rap that comes on the radio isn't worth listening to, imo, and you seem to agree with me. They're all flash and no substance.
