    What is everyone's opinion of rap music? I write lyrics and stuff and plan on recording music once I learn how to produce better. Would anyone be interested in seeing some of my lyrics?

    This is something I wrote for a school project and recorded. It for the instrumental "Trophies" produced by Hit-Boy and rapped by Drake.

    Yo i just can't believe this
    On my life I just bleed for this
    Figured my lines to be my weapons
    For that I gotta thank the heavens
    Knock you out to live off pensions
    To all my foes that inhale tension
    Schooled all yall and gave suspensions
    Please dont ever bother to return
    Left your feels in a black urn
    Cause im rapping only the things Ive learned
    Not that fake stuff that youve heard
    Real recognized so no wonder you are blurred

    Chorus
    My mind is fixated on success
    I wont ever settle for less
    If rap is all sex, drugs, and money
    Then i guess Im just talkin over beats
    But to be real, im tryna bring back the old
    Tryna make a point of every record ever sold
    And they dont have an award for that, trophies, trophies

    Now its finally my time to shine
    Never made plans to stumble or fall
    Like Michael when he first picked up a ball
    Cept i picked up the mic and gave it my all
    They said i was shootin for the stars
    But i dominated the dominos with my bars
    And so shootin stars grant wishes?
    Mine is for all to listen to this lyricist
    Talkin bout cold winter game words
    I done broke records with records
    Doc brown sent me the memo
    He went 88 and told me my words would be a memento

    I'm obviously not a critic, but that seemed pretty good :)

    can't really criticizes lyrics as I got little knowledge about it, but it sounded good to me!
    I'm not much of a fan of rap, mostly do to a lot of it is about how many chicks they got and stuff. I'm a fan of Epic Rap Battle of history Though x'D

    I'm a fan of rap music and that's some pretty sick stuff you got there. At least your lyrics make sense and don't follow the old school trend of, like you mentioned, sex, drugs and money. Look forward to seeing more.

    I'm pretty big into rap and that is definitely impressive, better than most mainstream rappers for sure. Good word choice, good flow, original content. The right rapper could make a pretty sick track with those lyrics.

    I mean honestly, I don't mind it. It really depends on the artist, but some of it I can deal with. Most of it, however, is a bit too annoying for my tastes. It's not something I listen to a lot, but I do have a couple on my phone's list.

    I love rap music and I listen to a lot of artists, I love the hip hop group Black Hippy (if you ever listened to Kendrick Lamar you'll see that his music isn't the same as other rappers). In my opinion the lyrics up there are amazing. You haven't made any mixtapes yet?

    It mostly depends on the lyrics I hear. If all I hear *cuss word* *cuss word* *cuss word* then no, I don't like it. But for some rappers like Flame, Lecrae, Andy Mineo, and KJ-52, they have a better idea on rap music imo.

    I know there are two kinds of rap - one in the group of "party party party, and drink drink drink", like Flo Rida, Pitbull, Lil Wayne and Drake. I know there are some people that don't like those styles, but there are quite a few tracks out of their catalogues that I enjoy (Fireball, anyone?). I generally don't take them seriously, except for a few of their tracks, and sometimes see them as guilty pleasures.

    Then there are the rappers that actually write meaningful songs, like Eminem, Jay-Z and Kanye West. Those three can get serious in their tracks, especially Eminem, who is definitely my favorite rapper out there. Sad that he may be retiring not too far off though.

    I'm not a huge fan of rap music, but I have to say I really enjoy most of Eminem's music. He has made some really good music and, now that I think about it, I might actually download some of his songs soon.

    I'm not a fan of rap music at all, is just not for me. Sure there's some good ones out there but is just not me.

    Critiquing lyrics, I better leave that to someone else as I'm not good at it.

    I used to not be a fan of any rap music really, but my boyfriend has really turned me on to it. There's a lot of truly great and meaningful rappers out there.

    I'm not a huge fan of rap, but it's far from my least favorite music! It depends on the lyrics though.
