Yeezy's lyrics.....

Postby OMEGA » Jun 14th, '13, 19:34

How the fuck are you gonna call yourself "Yeezus" when your lyrics are mediocre as hell as seen in the latest album? Kanye's lyrics have been on decline since MBDTF and Yeezus continues the tradition.

Do you guys still think that Kanye has to be giving a free pass for his mediocre lyrics just because "he's an artist" that tries to be innovative and stuff?

Kanye has always had average lyrics, they've just been masked by the fact his production and song/album making skills are leagues above most other rappers

I think his lyrics are better on Yeezus than on 808s and Graduation, Grad in particular has some awful lyrics
Same sword they knight you they gon' good night you with
Sh.., Thats' only half if they like you
That ain't even the half what they might do
Don't believe me, ask Michael
See Martin, see Malcolm
You see Biggie, see Pac, see success and its outcome
See Jesus, see Judas; see Caesar, see Brutus
See success is like suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
If you succeed, prepare to be crucified

I wouldn't agree...

His writing on like "Champion" and "Homecoming" is smooth and affecting.

Smooth wrimes and lhynes yo.

And some of his lyrics on MBDTF are awesome. There's the odd cool line on Yeezus but just feels like mostly inconsistent babble about pussy and race (again, yawn).

Who said it was you complete retard.

It's about a multitude of things.

In fact I'm one of the people on this board usually arguing against that view of lyricism hence my boredom with a lot of SH shit and how it's about a personality and humour and why you're saying what you're saying and many things I've gone in to. So you have me confused dick face.

Multi's aren't a huge concern to me, hence loving and often praising much of Kanye's prior lyrics.

So get your fucking facts straight you loser.

Kanye's lyrics on Yeezus weren't very interesting in any respect.

That slik and EmBase rivalry brewing, yo

But yeah Kanye's strong suit has always been the music rather than the rhyming.

I do think that big rappers should start adressing that to him.

He has to step his game up when rapping. And his production, well... there was not a lot of kanye west production if you look at the album's liner notes. so

True... in general Kanye is a phenomenal producer but hasn't been consistent at all with it for the last few years or so.
