I find these lyrics a tad bit more profound... Day boy Akala's a diamond fella All you little boys are a comedy of errors You bellow but you fellows get played like The cello, I'm doing my ting You're jealous like Othello. Who you? what you gonna do? All you little boys get Tamed like the Shrew You're mid-summer dreamin' Your tunes aren't appealing I'm Capulet, you're Montague, I ain't feeling I am the Julius Caesar hear me The Merchant Of Venice couldn't sell your CD As for me, All's Well That Ends Well Your boy's like Macbeth, you're going to Hell Measure for Measure, I am the best here You're Merry Wives of Windsor not King Lear I don't know about Timon I know he was in Athens When I come back like Hamlet you pay for your action Dat boy Akala, I do it As You Like You're Much Ado About Nothing All you do is bite it I'm too tight, I don't need 12 knights All you little Tempests get murked on the mic Of course I'm the one with the force You're history like Henry IV I'm fire, things look dire Better run like Pericles Prince Of Tyre Off the scale, cold as a Winter's Tale Titus Andronicus was bound to fail So will you if Akala get at ya That's suicide like Anthony & Cleopatra Cymbeline was a modern day Bridget Jones Love's labours lost, a woman on her own She needed Two Gentlemen Of Verona This is Illa State and I am the owner Wise is the man that knows he's a fool Tempt not a desperate man with a jewel Why take from Peter to go pay Paul Some rise by sin and by virtue fall What have you made if you gain the whole world But sell your own soul for the price of a pearl The world is my oyster and I am starving I want much more than a penny or a farthing I told no joke, I hope you're not laughing Poet or pauper which do you class him Speak eloquent, though I am resident to the gritty inner city That's surely irrelevant Call it urban, call it street A rose by any other name, smell just as sweet Spit so hard, but I'm smart as the Bard Come through with a Union Jack, full of yard Akala, Akala, where for art thou? I am the black Shakespeare and The secret's out now Chance never did crown me, this is destiny You still talk but it still perplexes me Devour cowards, thousands per hour Don't you know the king's name is a towern You should never speak it It is not a secret I teach thesis, like anicent Greece's Or Egyptology, never no apology In my minds eye, I see things properly Stopping me, nah you could never probably I bare a charmed life, most probably For certain I put daggers in a phrase I'll put an end to your dancing days No matter what you say it will never work Wrens can't prey Where eagles don't perch I'm the worst with th words Cos I curse all my verbs I'm the first with a verse to rehearse with a nurse There's a hearse for the first jerk who turn berserk Off with his head, cos it must not work Ramp with Akala, that's true madness And there's no method in it, just sadness I speak with daggers and the hammers Of a passion when I'm rappin I attack 'em In a military fashion the pattern of my rappin chattin couldn't ever map it And I run more rings round things than Saturn *Sick, never slackin' like a pig with a baton Verses split big kids wigs when I'm rappin That boy Akala, the black Shakespeare Did not want to listen, when I said last year Rich like a gem in Ethiope's ear Tell them again For them who never hear ya |

God it is amazing how there is close to 50 replies to this topic, and none of you have a clue. All your generic Lil Wayne, Tupac, Bone Thugs, Jay-Z etc responses disgust me. The only thing worse than you people are the "omg rap is nothing but gangster shit" people who are drowning in their own ignorance. |

Perhaps "TheBarExam" should have enlightened the ignorant masses with the proper perspective on hip hop? Speaking of ignorant, it is quite ignorant to show up, say "None of you have a clue", without explaining: 1. WHY these opinions are all clueless 2. How an enlightened individual views the hip hop genre 3. An example of a hip hop artist who does not fall within the range of "generic" artists. I already stated that Dr. Seuss was my favorite rapper. That dude was decades ahead of his time. However, in light of TheBarExam's input, maybe I can shed some light on what I believe he may have been thinking, but was seemingly unable to express. "Most of the artists cited lack any social conscious or artistic ability. Perhaps you fucktards should give a listen to The Roots or Mos Def. These artists are the poets of contemporary times, expressing real problems in artistic form, without resorting to calling women 'ho', using vulgarity, glamorizing a criminal lifestyle, or perpetuating the self-degradation of the African American people". |

Mathilda is on point. There are variables involved in determining something that is not absolute. As such there will never be any true consensus "best" or "goat". However I always have felt that theres no harm in trying and using intelligent reason to come up with a formula to try to decipher the subject. I feel one could call someone the best if they reasonably had some combination of ALL of the attributes that are needed to be considered great. Rhymes, flow, content/subject matter, story telling, longevity, commercial success, long term impact, etc. If you take all of these things into consideration I have always felt like Jay-Z is the one person who can claim to be at the top, or right near the very top of most if not all of those categories. Lyrically hes a beast. Commercially he is a beast. He isnt the top when it comes to subject matter but dont kid yourself and think he hasnt dropped some serious tracks with some serious issues. He can freestyle, shit most of his studio work is done off the top of the head. Also, most importantly to me, and I'll explain why, he has THE most longevity. Not necessarily in terms of total years/albums. But in terms of total years/albums relevant and at the top of the game. I say thats most important cause there have been better lyricists and mc's pound for pound(Biggie, Big Pun) or those with more cultural/social impact(Tupac) but none of them did so for as long or put out as much quality work over the long haul. So his longevity is what sets him apart to me. |

Intresting how everybody only mentions Mainstream rappers, but most of you have never heard of the 'rulers' of Rap. Not that fake gangster #$%@. 1.) KRS-One, (Tupac and Biggie were trading disses all around? KRS and his crew made one diss, and MC Shan quit Rap all together.) 2.) Naughty By Nature. 3.) Lupe Fiasco/Nas. |
