Lol? Lyrics and cadence are of equal importance and equally as hard to come up with
Oftentimes (in my experience) the two actually go hand in hand especially trying to fit your words into a flow that fit and don’t sound jumbled while also being interesting at the same time
One may come easier to you than the other, but one is not inherently harder or easier than the other
Varies from artist to artist and even from song to song
You may be in a space where you know what you wanna talk about, but just don’t have the flow for it, and someone gives you a nice flow, a nice bounce and you take it from there
Or like, maybe your genius is coming up with new flows and new rhyme patterns but you get writers block at times, idk it varies
But new or catchy flows and hooks are hold. No one really frets about lyrics that much tbh
Dude, imagine Lupe explaining this on IG Live but really BTS he's reading a script written by his ghost writer.
Lupe has been on IG live lately showing how he writes off the top similar to Jay Z. Ironically Lupe wrote for Jay but that's besides the point lol.

I would be devastated.
A poster fighting with an actual musician about whether flows and cadences are easy or not has incredible entertainment potential
Please post the "actual musician" I was arguing with so I can give them constructive criticism

Yeah that’s what I mean though. Like sometimes I know exactly what I want to say but I gotta work it around a bit to fit a pattern that works well and sounds good to the hear, you know? It’s combining the two to create one flowing verse that can be difficult
