Look at Missy Elliott, she doesn't rap with speed yet she's not considered a bad rapper by any means.
I do admire people like Azealia who can rap like she does on Liquorice though, cus that's impressive.
Azealia on the other hand actually has really complex and interesting lyrics and world play. She isn't a punchline rapper so you may think she isn't saying anything meaningful, but she really gives Shakespeare a run!
no. Not at all. There's several rappers who don't fast rap and are considered legends in the game. But if you can fast rap and write your lyrics then your doing pretty good for yourself.
Fast Understandable Rapping = Good Rapping
cause what use is fast rapping when no one can understand half the words you said
and rapping is not always about speed. lyrics, melody, even emotional delivery can be a factor to good rapping.
Yes and no. It takes skill to fit words together that flow nicely, and more to execute - But a lot of the lyrics are a bunch of bs. Tech N9ne is amazing in that he's consistently done it for YEARS with good lyrical quality as well as speed
No. onika and azealia stans like to put people like I G G Y down for not spitting as fast as them, but if you actually listen to the lyrics, I G G Y's lyrics are more complex and interesting than theirs. fast rappers like them just rap really fast so you can overlook what's actually being said. it's a shame lyricism in female rap music is dying by their hands.
