      NYC rappers are obsessed with punchlines which comes from Comedy. Double Entreas, punches, and word play aren't the only measurement of a great song. There are alot of great songs by Smokey Robinson who is the greatest song writer of all time that have none of these techniques. NYC fell because they got to zoned out with overblown techniques and forgot innovation, purpose and charisma makes greatness. The Brown Skin Anti Christ.

      @@MrGenoboss Pac is from New York and was born in Brooklyn, NY. His first rap name was MC New York. So many were envious of Tupac who spread so much rumors that they have people hating him without even listening to his music. I was old school and didn't really listen to the new Rap of the early 90s so I bought into the hype that Tupac was this overrated rapper. But it's not like me to just leave it at that I had to listen to his music first and when I did I was blown away. Tupac is way better than Biggie for even after listening to Biggie I admit he is great but I wasn't blown away. Tupac is on another level altogether like Eminem just something you don't come across everyday someone that gifted and set apart. The Brown Skin Anti Christ.

      I totally agree. Being lyrical to me is being able to paint a picture with words, connect with a listener.
      Being lyrical isn’t always about complex rhyme schemes or double syllables!!
      I’d listen to Tupac over Cannibus any day lol!
      And by the way some of my favourite hip hop artists include Kool G Rap, Big Pun, Biggie, Big L, Gza. But lyricism covers many aspects!!

      Couldnt agree more everybody think just because you can rhyme one word 10 times or rap fast you are lyrical. For me lyrical is the words u are using, the message, the knowledge you dropping, the storys , poetry , painting a picture etc. Like Nas and Pac. Them 2 are the best to ever do it. Thats why you can study them 2 lyrics.

    People like Arise think if you’re not a Punchline rapper or use a lot of metaphors in your rhymes you’re not a lyricist. Tupac was a storyteller and one of the first original emo-rappers that made songs about depression and being suicidal. Tupac raps felt more like he was having a conversation with you than rhyming to you like other rappers.

Before getting locked up he was involved in a lot of craziness due to being associated with the he wrong people. Suge bailing him out so soon cut an essential part of his growth short. He left the jail and went right back out the same way he went in.

      Aries has obviously not listened to "Mama Just a little girl" "Letter to the President" "Hail Mary" "White Man'z World' "“If I Die 2Nite" Still I Rise" Eminem even said Pac to be best songwriter all time. Pac had song for every mood, and his body of work in the short time he lived speaks volume. Remember pac was alive during the time of his rivals and (Nas, Big, Rakim, De Soul, Treach (Naughty By Nature)) Pac didn't incorporate internal rhyme schemes and multi syllabic rhyme structure. But he still deployed a variety of poetry techniques to separate his lyrics from regular prose. How many listen to K-Rino KRS-One Rakim etc... compared to pac. Pac knew he had short time on this earth and tried to make easy to feel and understand,

    I get tired of hearing these dudes characterize 2Pac as not being a lyricist. Sure, maybe he didn't attempt to drop clever lines, metaphors, and such as often as others but that was on purpose. I feel like 2Pac remains the greatest lyricist in the history of hiphop because he understood that storytelling, substance, and emotional awareness are far more important than clever lines that lack depth. And let's be honest, whenever these dudes callout whatever rappers they consider lyrical it's funny how irrelevant most of them are nowadays. Whereas 2Pac's impact and relevancy has only grown stronger since his death in 1996. And don't get it confused, I enjoy lyrical rap but the context of the lyrics matter. I'm not really interested if a rapper is dropping meaningless bars about drugs, women, gunplay, and/or other topics merely for the sake of bragging. There needs to be a relatable story and a purpose to it. What truly makes 2Pac's music (and music in general) timeless is when the content speaks to the human/social condition because that never loses its relevancy nor becomes outdated. This is why Shakespeare's literature is still taught and read to this day... because the core principles of his stories/plots remain relevant and relatable to past, present, and future generations. That said, 2Pac's music is generational and most other rappers' music is not.

    I think what Aries is saying is that Tupac's style of lyricism didn't focus on complex metaphors. You can tell by his interviews that Tupac was a very deep thinker usually. However his friends tell you that he basically had two personalities. These eternal conflicts are best expressed in his poetry.
    When it comes to hip hop, Tupac was much more blunt than a Common or an Andre 3000. Tupac didn't want to only connect with the "woke Black man", he wanted to connect with the poor black man snatching purses for dollars. Tupac was extremely talented as a lyricist because he didn't rely on an encyclopedia to relay a message. He was straight out with it. He was catering to his audience.
    So yeah he was an extremely talented lyricist. However he wasn't trying to be overly complex in his word play. He was being straight up. Because he made music with the intent of reaching out to drug dealers, gang bangers, robbers, addicts, and anyone living in the struggles of the real world.

      I think people over-emphasise this thing about Tupac falling behind Biggie when it came to lyricism just cause Jay-Z said that, but just cause Jay Z said it doesn’t make it true. People are arriving at that point without really studying the lyrics. They just going by what jay z said. Smh.

      simple and straightforward is misleading and redundant because mostly all artist keep it simple. few artist are metaphoric and complex except th elite of elite lyricist like Lupe, Ras, Killa Priest, Elzhi, etc.
      Nas, Big, 50, Jay, also keept it simple

    You don't have that type of impact on the culture and the world without being a lyricist. Pac didn't have to use a ton of metaphors, he used a lot of message. Wrong or right, positive or angry. The whole song me and my girlfriend was a metaphor. Just because you have a mic in front of your face doesn't mean you should let dumb shit fall out your mouth. Last time dude did that....he got knuckled up......
