This reminds me of when my cousin and I took some rap songs and rapped all the lyrics properly.

To answer the question, grammatically incorrect lyrics are fine.

this just in: only black people use improper grammar

what a ridiculous ass reach this is

Somebody reported this thread?

Take down this Rihanna avi.

As long as it isn't TOO messy, I'm good.

If the correct grammar can be used, use it but a small modification for the sake of the fluidity of the song, go for it, just don't make it really stupid.

"Is you big enough?" is the most iconic grammatically incorrect lyric of all time

You should get the lyrics right yourself first
the are thing is so unnecessary though like I still hear it as am anyways

What's wrong with "Why you gotta be so rude?" btw?

There's a big difference between slang (which is dialect and a perfectly acceptable/understandable form of communication) and actual incorrect grammar. Slang can make songs catchy, fun, memorable and time-appropriate imo.

Not @ y'all calling AAVE improper grammar. You poor whites.

THIS. They're writing songs, not 5 paragraph essays. Get a grip.

If it sounds forced and awkward or when the proper usage could've easily fit, I can't stand it. Sometimes there needs to be some stretches for fluidity or just for some added silliness (I.e Fergalicious) which is not bad.
