You need to go back in the archives and listen to some KRS1.
He, may not dance around like a sissy Mary. But he will always be a much better lyricist than Nelly Nelly could ever dream.
Everyone please read d the thread title first i'm looking for LYRICIST. Not Pop artist, not best dancer, not best song writer but LYRICIST. Nelly is not a lyricist. Just a horrible Pop Rapper mostly listened to by girls between the ages of 15-25.

I wouldn't really be down with threads like this because writing songs as an artist is much more important than being good with lyrics.
But one thing that is undenyable, the best lyricism in a single verse is by a mile RA's verse on Uncommon Valor.
|
Point taken about Nellys last work. Not sure about RA's Verse
I give best verse to Rakim about 7 the Emcees.
But KRS1 has come out with his own stuff plus collabs with Buck Shot Shorty that was pretty dope.
Dope LYRICS+Dope Beats=Great SONGS.
The only thing Nelly wins is a popularity contest.

I think you can get a great sold without dope lyrics. Hell check out every rock song in history. Music is 99.9% listenability. That's why "internet rappers" never make it, because they are all lyrics and no production. I mean check Immortal Tech's 3rd World. The lyrics would have been pretty dope...if we didn't have to sit through "A Green Lantern production" even two seconds, making the album suck balls.

I don' know if this is all true. As much as i HATE his music, look at soulja boy. his music was garbage and still is. I think his drive got him where he is today, because it sure wasn't talent
So if an internet rapper with even slightly more skill than soulja boy had that same drive, they could make it too.

Sorry for the great Lyricist that i have missed but I thought this was a good list.
At least for people over the age of 27.
