I mean I’m all for artists making the music they truly wanna make but you got people literally saying that he can’t rap

what like laying down hooks and story telling?

Could you give me some examples of some bad written songs?

I hope ur not referring to me b

Debating with op is pointless because no matter what valid points you bring up he’s just gonna ignore them

Everything on earl mixtape

No cuddles, the bases is all covered
Niggas come in the door and smoke somethin'
Choke up on the slugger for home run-ins

idk about you anymore bra, seems like you just hate anything that isn’t mainstream or street rap slanted lol

Complains that no one is giving counter arguments to OP.

Agrees that Earl is not a good writer.

Gets shown lyrics that prove otherwise:

"Lmaoooooo stop"

Ok this good. Delivery so trash I woulda ignored it

I like Earl. I don’t sit here and listen to him every day but If he comes on shuffle I’m not gonna skip the song, I’m not a big enough fan to sit here on my ass and literally make counter arguments all night

Not even talking about this thread, I’m not the biggest earl fan, but to hate on him and Stan 69 is laughable. Your opinions in general are just so f***ing trash, what makes you think we want a weekly thread of your trash opinions?🤔

Laying down proper hooks, installing great structure in ur songs, being able to keep ur listener engaged and entertained for like 3 minutes w ur words, etc.

Theres some artists out there that are mediocre lyricists but remarkable songwriters imo

Was mobbin' deep as '96 Havoc and Prodigy did

I don't f*** with too much of y'all's s***, judgin' by the pants and the mall grip

I'm f***in' famous if you forgot, I'm faithful, despite all what's in my face and my pocket

My momma raised me a prophet

Fishy n****s stick to eating off of hooks
Say you eating, but we see you getting cooked, n****

Dealing with the stomach pain just from birthin n**** s***
I was making waves, you was surfin' in them

I don't act hard, I'm a hard act to follow, n****

My b**** say the spliff take the soul from me (Aye)

I know yo' b**** check for me, so much for chivalry
So long to every b**** tryna get intimate
I'm in my 20's now

B****, if yo' n**** had Supreme, we was the reason he copped it
And nowadays I'm on the hunt for mirrors to box with
And some pretty b****es that ain't trip if it's a hit and run
I got the gold cause I don't do the crying, bro
She Mario, I'm tryna keep the whining to a minimum

B****, it's difficult to beat him like a soft d***

Pitch your body in the water like a Lipton tea bag, and then
Switch to a different f***in whip to let them piggies speed past 'em

N**** want to fade me, b****es feel some type of way for me
50s in my pocket falling out like f***ing baby teeth

You can tell the Reaper I'mma meet 'em when he send for me
With a cleaver and a .30, and some twisted weed
I pick one, and let the crimson leak, n****

I got my grandmama's hands, I start to cry when I see 'em
'Cause they remind me of seein' her
These the times that I needed her most 'cause I feel defeated

You've been the same motherfucker since 2001
Well it's the left-handed shooter, Kyle Lowry the pump
I'm at your house like, "Why you got your couch on my Chucks?"
Motherfucker

I don't label the bags, I stay in 'em

All praises due, the juice unobtainable
Like Tang in the booth

Brodie on the corner with a piece on his hip
Give a warning 'fore you blow it in the sky
Tiptoein' over mortar and the brick
Bumpin' shoulders with the devil in disguise

Evidently, it was written like Nas
I was in the kitchen with that n**** Mike

Peace to every crease on your brain
Peace to who came before me in the game
We givin' praise and glory to your name, kid

Earl is not my name, the world is my domain, kid

I wait to be the light shimmering from a star

channel orange and sonder son

I listen to danny brown

That’s all these clowns do on here

That’s not what he’s trying to do tho. He’s not trying to write traditional songs

"Muffle my brain and muzzled my pain up" :word:

He addresses all y'all who skim over him and and it's funny cuz y'all just prove him right. On SRS and FoC

You pretended that s*** had crazy entendres when it didnt fam.

That’s the only thing that didn’t age well with him. Being he was a knucklehead 15 year old rolling around skating. It was pretty decent during its time

And the album that followed made up for all that

i get what ya mean, i mean i think songs like chum and faucet/grief shows he can lay down a good hook here and there

songwriting is terrible?
how about the reflection of how dark he sees his home and how poverty has stricken the blackest parts of the city?
Desolate testaments, tryin' to stay Jekyll-ish
But most niggas H(i)yde, and Brenda just stay pregnant

I dont stan any rapper. I said 69 has bangers which he does. That's all. You upset I'm criticizing rappers you like.
