Nov 27, 2024 Yeah thas p mean tbh. He's worth probably hundreds of millions. Like you couldn't give her ONE million? Whatever she's done, you literally wouldn't fkn exist without her.
Nov 27, 2024 Lmao I'm watching it atm... Royce looks so ridiculous Dude literally thinks he's like some fkn street philosopher malcom x. Cringe. Militant racist more like.
Nov 27, 2024 Yeah but at the beginning Em says to them 'you gotta battle me. But I get to do written and you have to freestyle', maybe he was tryna joke but didn't sound like it, maybe they do that for the last round?
Nov 27, 2024 d--- so he didn't battle anyone? That woulda been dope. What's he so afraid of. It's all written anyway.
Nov 27, 2024 Oh s---. Ok, I gotta watch that Southpaws said they will cut up the show and post it free on Twitter. Probably gotta wait a day or 2. But I might just get on Netflix today after work and stream it
Nov 27, 2024 Lol @ Em starting off talking about 'compound sylablles' as the most meaningful aspect again. Why does he act like it's so difficult. It's like, the most meaningless aspect and easiest too, if you practice is just a little bit and are even remotely good with words... s---'s the easiest like the chick that's the sleaziest, my fist is a meaty fist that'll bust up your nose, squirt open blood like water if I cut up a hose, whilst it's still on, is this thing still on? And thas p bad but I just shat it out in two seconds first s--- that comes to mind, s--- rhymes itself, so I can't imagine if you did it 24/7 like him, would be so fkn easy. Yet he's like YO, THIS s--- IS A FKN SCIENCE, IT'S THE HARDEST THING IN THE WORLD B. Like, ofc it makes rap sound good/better, but how about actually saying something - smart, funny or meaningful, he doesn't even mention anything about the content. Just if you're rhyming sounds. Which is weird, bc he obviously gets it, a huge focus of his content is humour and wit, and provocation etc. it's not just about rhyming for the sake of it.
Nov 27, 2024 Take a shot during that episode for every time he says "You're both super talented" or "You started off well but then" lmao
Nov 27, 2024 not sure if trolling. em’s whole career’s been based on the nuanced differences between lyrical miracle rapping, and actual multisyllabic rhyming with start rhymes assonance and other literary techniques
Nov 27, 2024 It’s cuz he been listening to Big Daddy Kane. And BDK’s raps are on the highest level because of that technicality. As he advances as a Rhymer and rapper, the only way for him to push the pen is to hyperfocus on that aspect. If he kept writing like he did, he would be stagnant and people would complain that thier is no growth or evolution to his writing.
Nov 27, 2024 Nah I'm not trolling. I know he gets that. The point is why he doesn't say it, all he mentions is the rhyming for rhyming's sake aspect of it, multi sylablles, as if multi syllables are all that matters.
Nov 27, 2024 Well.. that's not the only way. The way is to advance concepts and ideas too. Like, yeah he's renowned for his rhyming and is why he keeps sounding amazing, but, ultimately... what do people truly talk about? In memory of his great writing, ofc everybody mentions Stan... now, yeah it sounds better bc of its rhyming, but it's about the idea and his vocal performance that are so incredible... It's about the fact he wrote from 1st person and made the character's dialogue the lyrics n brought this movie-song to life in the way he did. Ideas matter more
Nov 27, 2024 all that stuff is the reason he was just certified as the highest selling artist of all time. it just goes over most people’s heads. they don’t think about what he’s doing they just know it resonates with them unlike anyone else they’ve ever heard
Nov 27, 2024 Well not really bro, bc at no point have I tried to be the artist lol. If I had tried n failed you may have something, I've never wanted to or tried to be a rapper... that's not my goal... Also doesn't automatically invalidate anything I or anyone say that's such a stupid response when people do that. Like, if you watch a movie right... you can't have an opinion on the movie? Or say that movie was s---, or good, or say anything which could be improved? Just bc you didn't make a movie? Or aren't a director? lmfao.
