What Makes Rap Songs Weak Or Tight?

<< < (2/3) > >>

authentic:
if u want good rap u need something that isnt elementary, something that stands out. And if ur flow works with ur beat. Have ur metaphors leave the listerner with a laff

Sikx:
beat, baseline, most important, u saw how big in da club was, and it was all about the beat. basicly one amazingly hot beat and right ppl in ur crew makes u superstar :o

smartass:
in order: beat, lyricism, flow, wordplay, delivery.

if its appealing to the mainstream: beat, flow, delivery, wordplay, lyricism

what i prefer: beat, flow, lyricism, wordplay, delivery

man, someone finally said it.  Basslines are key.  Not really for every song, but most classic songs have amazing basslines.  A bassline can make or break a song. 

Trauma-san:
Even if you go back and look @ old songs you know you like, you'll probably find they have an awesome bassline, even if you never paid attention to it.  It's not just rap like that, either.  That's why everybody loves the Beatles, Paul McCartney was a fuckin' KICK ASS bass player.
