Guys, 1 thing that Irks me. When you do a rhyme with a tight punchline.... DONT put the punchline in quotation marks. We're smart enough to catch it without you putting " "'s on all of it. It makes it look patronizing and stupid, and you can't do it in a song, so why do it?

Example.

I'm tha Tightest Ever, The Microphone Prophet Slayer, I Hunt Down Jesus Like A Lyrical Prey-er....

Why Put

I'm Tha Tightest Ever, The Microphone Prophet Slayer, I "Hunt" Down Jesus Like A Lyrical "Prey-er".

STUPID. And what's worse is when people put the obvious double meaning in Brackets. Like

I'm Tha Tightest Ever, The Microphone Prophet Slayer, I "Hunt" Down Jesus Like A Lyrical "Prey-er" (Prayer).

Again. STUPID. We All Catch It, don't Point It Out. A Good Rhyme Doesn't Have To Be Explained, And A Good Joke Doesn't Need An Interpretator.

Anybody Agree?

Yeah, but in songs, you can't do that. The only thing you can do is raise ya voice, so every once in a while I might write in Caps. But it's wack to point out all your rhymes like that, I think.
