I'm guessing this isn't the kind of comment you wanted, but you are so smart about music. I learned a lot reading this post, so... thank you. :D

Haha, no, I just listen to too much Eminem. ;) But glad you learned about the power of Slim Shady!

I found this entire post wildly interesting. I listen to a lot of hip hop and rap, although I've never seen a rap verse broken down this way before. I've never really had the understanding to articulate WHY I loved Eminem so much. But this has helped me see what makes him such a good rapper (and why Lil' Wayne is so lame haha).

I also think it's cool you can analyze these things even though you aren't a huge fan of rap in general.

Anyway, loved this post.

Aww, thanks. I love the rap I listen to! I just don't listen to it as my primary genre, so I do tend to only get the surface stuff, mostly. I've kinda wanted to do this with an Eminem verse for a long time.

Hee, I saw them opening for Flobots in '07, they absolutely killed it. I haven't seen them since, unfortch, but I'd love to.

lol girl I was going to say this is the only good thing li'l wayne has ever done but the thing says it is li'l john and idk what the difference is

PLUS FOR AN ECON MAJOR I JUST GOTTA SAY YOU THINK A LOT LIKE AN ENGLISH MAJOR. JUST SAYING.

Lil John is that funny guy who yells a lot who did the beat for that "doo doo, doo DOO" Yeah! Usher song, Lil Wayne sounds like Fat Cartman Drode.

Also that clip is amazing.

Heh, I really do. I can appreciate the beauty of a well-crafted sentence and the simplicity of a demand curve!

So Weezy? You get no love. I have, however, found it far easier to listen to your guest verses if I imagine you as the Drode.

Generally rap is not my genre (or at least the subject matter of a lot of it- learn to respect women a little bit more, boys), but plus one hundred life points for the Animorphs reference snuck in there at the end. ;)

lisacharly February 10 2011, 22:55:04 UTC

Eh, I feel like there's an entire genre of rock music based on "that bitch left me what a skank whorrrrreeeee". Rap's not all bad. ;)

Everything is always about Animorphs.

I enjoy some rap music- but it's generally either Eminem or older things I random hear on the radio and flash back to, you know?

Lil Wayne is obnoxious, though. :P
