Holocaust is actually my favourite lyricist. No joke. I find him more entertaining and interesting than anybody else. Any of his styles. He's awesome.

what are you comparing it with? other forms of popular music? rock music? 70s psych rock? are you fucking kidding me?
hip hop is easily the most complicated genre lyrically on a whole. it's unequivocal almost. lyrics are largely unimportant in most other genre's save for a few select artists or bands - writing even approaching the level of average mc's is rarely seen in other genre's.
you're just wrong noel, i understand you want to complain about hip hop and rappers who you dislike, but everything you've said in this thread is wrong. keep going, you've just said Holocaust is your favourite lyricist, i want to see where this goes.
I like how noel says killah priest but has a thread about him being boring and depressing on the same day
I don't know when you became such a snot, but it's pretty much getting to the "get off my dick" point with you.
Hip hop lyrics are a certain amount of syllables to fill a bar, and rhyming. You can make that as complicated as you want but it's a very basic format. Very few mc's do anything interesting with it.
What's so remarkable about Holocaust being my favourite lyricist? Clearly I don't find hip hop lyrics in general interesting, so why wouldn't I prefer somebody who does something completely different?
I knew somebody who saw both threads would make this completely thoughtless comment. Please explain to me, and I do want to see this, how being boring and depressing disqualifies a person from being a talented wordsmith? Please do tell me.I like how noel says killah priest but has a thread about him being boring and depressing on the same day
get it straight YOU say priest is depressing, but then knowledge always depresses the ignorant
Well of course 2Pac wouldn't get on a serious top 10 lyricist list but too many people make out like you can't be a dope mc without super bullshit lyrics.
G Rap, KRS-One, Nas, Rakim, Kane - token, boring old top 5
Big Pun - token shout out to the dead guy with a 1 good album catalogue before he died, interchange with Big L where appropriate
Scarface - token inclusion of a vet who shouldn't be there but he's a vet so you can't call him out on it
Jay-Z - token retarded inclusion. No list is complete without it. It's the equivalent of a typical European top 10 anything list
I find it hilariously ironic that jay-z is on the list over biggie though

Quoting ≠ Agreement.
Noel 411, likes killah priest and thinks he is a good m.c, all he is saying is that sometimes his music is depressing and repetitive.
There is no contradiction in what he is saying.
Zu fam you have if confused, Noel appreciates knowledge. I think all Noel is saying is he wants killah priest to make tracks with some flavour, rugged boom bap joints namsayin.... It has nothing to do with him being ignorant or depressed by the knowledge that kP is spitting.
peace
