Rappers and MC's

[RyanRader13]

I think lyrics and poetry are worlds apart, I'm a metalhead (which if you analyze closely is extremely similar to rap) but lyrics tend to have a mind of their own not really concerned about anything with the likes of punctuation or proper rhythm because when singing it's different compared to reading or speaking because you can slur and jumble words to sound a bit different. I have found quite a few rappers that I like specifically for their honesty and their passion, poetically they would be amature and not all that impressive, I myself have a hard time making lyrical material stick in a poetic setting but I do find it tickling that most rappers on certain forums like my writing a little too much,

I forgot where I was going with this.....
oh well
but my overall point is lyrics of any sort are completely different from poetry they are less structured but tend to be more honest
