i see there is a lot of jay z haters on here... I use to not like rap but now i love it. Its show so much more talent then something like metal or country or even some of today shit like fallout boy and green day.

there is really nothing like relaxing after a long day with a blunt and some black album or kid cudi playing in the background for me.


Metal needs way more talent, just look at guitars, bass and drums, sometimes the vocals arent as good but vocalist like the one in Iron Maiden are ones of the most talented, I dont know much about country since I dont listen to it, but Neil >Diamond is also better than Jay Z.

Greenday and Falloutboys are band that are generally considered as bad, but greenday even if their voices and guitars are very simple, the drums arent exactly easy and their lyrics has content in them. Falloutboy singer is good, but the guitars are very simple but their drums are better, anyway, singing fallout boy is harder than singing rap, way harder.

i think i may be in shock. Rapping is way harder then singing. 

Such as this rap song.  This guy raps to every letter in the alphabet only using one letter at a time. Not only did this guy has to write this rap, he has to memorize it and spit it up at increditable speeds. Also rappers almost always have a better vocab then singers.  Green days crappy ass sing doesnt compare to this. The lyrics make the music what it is. 

I dont feel like getting started on metal 

 

 

On Greenday, their lyrics have content, listen to Jesus of Suburbia
 its 9 minutes long with different parts.

Also, you should listen to Queen and then tell me that rap is harder than singing.

Also, go ahead talk about metal, what can you say about Iron Maiden or Dream Theater?

Also, Metal isnt only about anger, anyone knows this, and about emotion in the lyrics, rock songs have a lot more.



I drink Moet with Medussa, give her shotguns in hell
from the spliff that I lift and inhale, it aint hard to tell (Nasir Jones

This line has more meaning in it then most albums.

I like rock more then anything else.. Thats why i didnt mention rock. i love queen and my favorite bands  pink floyd, david bowie, modest mouse and i have seen iron maiden in concert. haha I am not even that in to rap, Yet in my opinion i still think rapping is harder then singing.

@ craan - yawn, boring

you want some of these man:

There are places i'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends i still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life i've loved them all

The Beatles - In My Life (verse 1)

next:

Don’t waste your words i don’t need anything from you
I don’t care where you’ve been or what you plan to do

I am the resurrection and i am the light
I couldn’t ever bring myself to hate you as i’d like

The Stone Roses - I Am The Resurrection

one more:

Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
By now, you should've somehow realized what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat, the word is on the street that the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before, but you never really had a doubt

Oasis - Wonderwall

now, those, those are great lyrics



Jay-Z...Isn't he Beyoncé's boyfriend? That's pretty much all I know about him.



Jay-Z is garbage dude.

His musical content became this way immediately after The Black Album. His music since then is mediocre at best and lyrically has at least 50 rappers ahead of him.

obviously you didn't understand what I meant

I'll explain this for you

Nas is drinking and smoking weed with Medusa.

he is giving her shotguns which is where you inhale marijuana smoke and exhale it into someone elses mouth.

Nas is saying he's so bad he can stare Medusa right in the eyes and not only does he not turn into stone, he "stones" her.

For my money the greatest Rock lyricist are not the Beatles or Oasis, but Bruce Springsteen.
