    What makes raps about life, hardships, etc. more "lyrical" than raps about money, women, cars, etc.?
    Simple example: Why is J. Cole considered more lyrical than Future?

    Is it the amount of words he uses? Does he use more syllables or something?

    Trap stans are becoming even more irritating than the 'real hip hop' stans these days. Why can't both sides respect each others opinions.

    I could see that.
    In this thread's defense, it was an honest question. I didn't mean to disrespect J. Cole, here.

    I enjoy both equally tbh. Overal sound of the song is much more important to me than lyrics tho

    Same reason Nas and Jay fans didn't get along. There is a perceived break between fun and important music.

    i prefer about life and the struggle since i relate to it more. rappers like Joe Budden make the best music about it too.
