MC Frontalot – Braggadocio Listen, I'll tell you that frontalot is incredible even recommended to rock the mic like instead of a silence, you'd have me fronting into the amplifier point with the thumb, at which mc to admire i got hi-res images of drum sounds that I loop you get to listen to them and to me too how fortunate y'all are to get to bask under my glow the mc, humble conduit to nerdcore flow now it's time for a little braggadocio while I swing my arms like ralph macchio I stand 77 feet tall, I got eight balls and all'a'y'all are subject to my thrall I act appalled when in receipt of less than the highest honor some day I'll be both revered & passe like madonna I'm all in effect, people tend to genuflect when I enter rooms, 'cause all dopeness is subsumed I spell the doom of the hip-hop subgenre you used to prefer the geekish rhythm intersection with the predilections that I've incurred you say "word?" With a surfeit of beats I'm unlikely to run out plus I'm so bright it's like redundant to have the sun out one out of each ten brags is hyperbolic it's all inconsequential, you're just here to hear my tongue frolic pistachios ain't that great, I thought I'd mention 'em distinctive from how awesome I am, my rhyme's venturesome then the dumb luck of it all is I discover other rappers already braggin' but front's on sync, no lagging! keep slang in files that recombinate to add weight to fat tracks I overlaid this very vocal via gums that flap I sap clock cycles from the sucker MCs as they struggle to parse and yet this front's no farce! some awesome massive aspiration stations self in my head: to be the dopest innovation since the slicing of bread instead of simply relying on my insistence to prove that every twist of my tongue is another radical move.
how is it possible to be camp in text?anyway,i take it you dont care for word play.im not gonna get all weepy about the fact you dont like rap,you're missing out is all...
I simply would not expect to like to listen to a person that insults my intelligence while I listen to him because I listen to him, nor do I like hearing people brag about making money, even if they think they're doing something good with it. Just another of the same type of rapper.
Yes I did. He started talking about how he made himself in the music industry, but then he went on saying that he makes his music simple for his simple audience to make more money. He talks about giving back to the poor, but even if that were admirable, him bragging about it makes it worthless.
Did you guys even read that jay-z verse? You seem to literally have no comprehension of it. Read it slow, and think about it. "Yes I did. He started talking about how he made himself in the music industry, but then he went on saying that he makes his music simple for his simple audience to make more money. He talks about giving back to the poor, but even if that were admirable, him bragging about it makes it worthless." Jesus christ think for two seconds before you post. HE"S EXPLAINING WHY MAINSTREAM RAP IS THE WAY IT IS.
He may be explaining it, but in this song he is still accepting it. He says that he uses it and doesn't claim its wrong. Therefore, he uses it to his advantage.
Uh, yeah, so what's your point? If he wants to make money, he has to play by the rules. Otherwise he stays in the ghetto. He actually had it both ways; he made a bunch of pop hits and slowly started sneaking in songs that were more and more sophisticated. The Black Album is his best LP yet.
For those that think all hip-hop is terrible and contrived, check out this song's lyrics: Sweatshop Union -- "The Thing About It"
My point is just that. He has to "Play by the rules" or "He stays in the ghetto"? Don't give me that crap. A person with honor would write out what was on their mind in their music, not "dumb it down" for their audience. Give me a break. My family doesn't live in the ghetto yet we have never had a singer in the family (or anyone else for that matter) that sacrificed their own way to make it big. It's that simple.
