Title: How important is a rappers voice???
Post by: C-clamp on December 27, 2007, 08:34:28 PM
When we're talking about great rappers, everyone always mentions the usual......wordplay, lyrics, flow.......those are all important but I think a rappers voice is equally important..........there's a reason a guy like canibus or keak da sneak will never blow, as good as they're lyrics may be..........they've got horrible voices, and listening to them for a whole album is just painful

think about it, krs, cube, snoop, scarface, pac, big.......all have voices you recognize the second they get on the mic

there's really no point to this post, just felt like putting in my two cents

I like Daz Dillinger's voice but he's not the best of lyricist, Eminem's voice on the other hand is so fucking annoying to me and I already hate his music. Also hate 50 and Lloyd Banks' mumbling on the mic.

its krazy.. in the 90s people were super lyrical, but jay z kinda changed all that

u dont have to say shit in your lyrical content anymore nowadays... all u have to do is have a great melodic flow and have the engineer EQ/compress your voice right and you good... LOL


whatever happened to bein a dope super lyrical mc ?

Well it has a way of balancing Out!!

I'm sorry if A Rapper has a horrible voice, that is like a Negative in my book, So i won't be listenin to dude's music a lot!!
Perhaps every now and then.
I listen a lot to Snoop,cuz his voice is Real Dope!!

Plus he can get lyrical at times..plus he has the ability to switch his flow and  delivery through the verse.
So if a rapper who has a boring voice can somehow switch up their flow while they are rapping and still keep in tune and flow on the beat, then the aforementioned problem with their voice is no longer an issue...

Bishop is dope to sum level...but Dudes voice kinda gets boring!!
Omar Cruz does not have the best voice..but his rhymes are dope and his delivery is dope too!!

Scrooge..sounds like snoop and Warren G at times..Plus the way he pronounces his words is kinda annoying..but i like his flows,plus the beats do a Good Job Too!!

Yukmouth, can't stand his voice, so i rarely listen to his music.
Dude sounds like he is shouting at the Mic!
but he seems to have a few dope lines here and there!

^^These are just but a few..
I'm sure yous can come up with more examples!!

I still believe  that Jay Z is a good lyricist!!
His shtick is simple rhymes with punchlines!
I've listen to quite a few of his tracks from his various albums, and I've had to pause like.."Say What??'

Sometimes folks who are lyrical tend to over do it at times, and sometimes the audience gets bored!!!!!
that's what happened to Canibus..Dude is lyrical but he bores Me!!!
