    I prefer money girls clothes rap lyrics because it makes me feel like I'm on top of the world and like I'm immortal. I listen to both though.

    The word lyrical is fictitious and you can't even define it. What does it mean? The song has lyrics?

    Just because something isn't socially conscious doesn't mean it isn't "lyrical". Just look at Lil Wayne, his wordplay, entendres, figurative language and all other elements of his raps are top notch and he usually doesn't rap about socially conscious topics.

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

    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?

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

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

    As long as you're only getting rebounds like Barkley and not throwing elbows like Dwight in the paint. Keep them frustrations clean on the court man!

    Yea, like, when I'm in the whip and s--- I don't want to think about in-depth stuff. I want to hear about runnin with kidnappers and murderin n----s.

    I used to listen to a lot of more "lyrical" music when I studied.
