    n----s who act like ALL hip-hop has to be about protons and reciprocals otherwise it aint music are the f---ing worst but hatin a--- n----s who only listen to Chief Keef are just as bad as people who listen exclusively to Eminem

    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.

    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.

    Joe Budden is dope though. there's other artists that make music with meaning too. for example

    2Pac
    Biggie
    Nas
    Jay-Z
    Eminem
    Kendrick Lamar

    Most youngins don't understand that if you gots the money (money) the cars (cars) the clothes (the clothes) and the hoes (oh the hooooooes).... you can still be lonely and "poor".

    But I guess it depends on what you're looking for. Are you looking for more lyrical word play? Or just anthems? You can make an anthem like club b-----r about success or the struggle same with a conscious song about each. All depends on what you're looking for/enjoy listening to.

    life isn't always "fun" though, people can't always live in this fantasy world without no worry in the world.

    G. Rap in his prime used to rap about selling drugs and living the high life and he's considered one of the greatest lyrical rappers of all time.

    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!
