dakrebel, give me 2hours my phone was stolen...

Darkrebel:



okay... I will post mine first . ..


don't worry....I already got them copied.... I will post all at lightening speed...

Darkrebel:


I laugh you

Darkrebel:



that wasn't a freestyle... they were giving time to script..

what do you mean by lyricism? how do you rate lyricism?
.as for me rhymes must be involved...
so tell me your criteria for rating a doppe lyricist

Limerick:
wetin do u

teddybiyasi:



you better start calling me sis princess

Ksslib:

Lol. Fear ke. When I wrote mine, I didnt even write like I was competing . I just dey praise all of them for the cypher with my verse sef .

My own be say, make the cypher collectively look d0pe. Individual d0peness can then follow.

Limerick:


Anyway, if u insist on posting the verses separately, make sure u are very fast before some iddiots come and derail the thread amidst posting.

Reyginus:
When I see a verse the first thing I look at consistency of the verse as regards to the tools employed. I am a proponent of free verse. I am more concerned on the message and how consistent it was put.

For example if you are going to use rhymes..I don't agree that their is any established pattern that is the best but your ability to maintain a pattern is key.

Imagine something like...
Premature Emcees trying to use me for beaf meat/
They drop a swine of thoughts to degenerate me/
The mature Emcees steal my shit/
Pray I drop more shits so they overfeed me/

Based on rhymes the lines above are good but I would rather judge it on how sensible and how consistent it has used every tool of poetry it employed.

Grammatically, beaf meat is a tutology. Beaf is a type of meat. Metaphorically, dropping more shits a result of their push is intellegent.

I am poet and not a Rapper.

Darkrebel:



I shock..
.teddy is your baby? since when?

Limerick:
I was on this cypher right?

Ksslib:

Darkrebel, Limenyash is right. Truth is, no matter how fast you are, one idiiot might just post in between and kill the whole thing.

Do this. Create a diary in diary section with same topic and content and post the verses(people cant post in ur diary) . When youre through, post the link to the diary here and tag the supermods to move it here, then from here to frontpage.

How you see am?

Darkrebel:


okay.. but you have to understand this is not topical ..
this is a freestyle.and by freestyle I mean,its not written on a particular topic.
its basically bragging,punchline galore e.t.c .....

go watch all cyphers and you would understand what I mean...

as for me.. I rate lyricism on--
*rhyme scheme
*story telling
*literary devices--metas..puns..hyperboles etc
*Punchlines

Reyginus:
I no see you o.

Reyginus:
Some Rappers are better lyricists but with less punchline. Kendrick Lamar and Wayne fits in here. Kendrick is the better lyricist, to me, but wayne punches more even with vulgarity.

Limerick:
was it not Dark Matter cypher on fb? Hosted by lunatic?

Ksslib:

Darkrebel, Limenyash is right. Truth is, no matter how fast you are, one idiiot might just post in between and kill the whole thing.

How you see am?

Reyginus:
No. It is Naija AllStars Cypher 2013.

Darkrebel:


lol ..are you kidding me?
Kendrick is a better punchliner .... forget his storytelling songs. go listen to his mix tapes, freestyles..

lil Wayne doesn't even set up his punches..and most of them are forced...
compare this --

Lil wayne-- Her Pusssy so wet...I might need some Googles...

Kendrick-- My Air-conditioner is broke, but am cool enough,you d' think you riding with an Eskimo..


compare

Reyginus:
Nice. You came third. Overall result.

Darkrebel:


no need for that.
its not immediately I create the topic that it would make f.p ... plus I have already copied everything ready, its just for me to post... don't worry, you will see

Darkrebel:
