“It is a shame what they did to my face, isn’t it,” Mr. Trump said, when I told him what had happened. “I’ve got a face. I tell the truth. But it really is a shame. Because we won the election. And it makes me look bad.”
Mr. Trump said he had tried to correct the photograph but that, apparently, had made it worse.
I don’t know, I just don’t find those as rapping-like, if I’m honest.
E.g. you can’t “eat some hay” – you can’t “tasteb” something in English. “Bayes Theorem” is more like a “bayesss” or something
Hm. Okay.
The probability
Of beating me
In a rap battle is possibly
Around the percentage of more than 90
Can you tasteb the victory?
Just you wait for the Bayesss to drop
Then I’ll go ahead and free you all from this flop
I’ll call rap “pop”
So I can finally [Q-Tip sample] stop
Hm. I don’t know about this. Maybe I should stay in school and get my Bachelor’s after all.
Okay, the next example is going to be bad:
Can you taste
The sweet success of my lyrics?
You’ve seen my flow
And now it’s time to put it in your ear
If you liked this verse and this line
You’re a sucker and I’m not nice
Cause I’m not a rapper. I’m a wizard.
And you’ll have to use it to survive
The night is my time and I’ll be here
For the rhyming with no room for doubt. (Instrumental solo from the beat)
This is really bad
There’s no room for doubt?? The line after that is a really nice one, right? It’s funny and clever and it makes me want to see what it gets a good rap album out of. “The Northern Pole”? What kind of shit is that? Who thought that up? “I’m a lyric”? Who can think of any words that mean that in English? It sounds like some pretentious person from back in 2010, making up some meaningless nonsense because of the hype over Homestuck.
“My metaphors are visual”? Who is making metaphors that are visual? That sounds like a bad description of someone’s poetry, or a bad description of some kind of TV show.
And then the lyrics, after I thought they had gotten better:
Well, now there’s a rhyme with which to go. (See what I said about the Northern Pole?)
Instrumental solo from the beat
So you’re going to use it to survive
The night is my time and I’ll be here
For the rhymes with no room for doubt.
No! Not like this! It’s exactly like this. The instrumentals are some generic track, the rhyming with no room for doubt is a bunch of empty syllables without any actual content, the “rhyming with no room for doubt” is just “the rhymes with no room for doubt”, and all of this just happens after a bunch of lines which don’t work because they say nothing. The only good part of this is the “So you’re going to use it to survive” – that’s clever. It’s clever because it doesn’t say anything. Does it say something? Is there anything actually there that is clever? I don’t get it.
