Tempest29 On This Night maui boy no ka oi I personally think that to be a songwriter requires a lot more skill and creativity than being a singer unless you are an ad-lib rapper and just make up good songs on the spot like Snoop Dogg. Though singing may take more practice and repetitive tasks, the skill is really shown off in the song itself rather than the lyrics or voice. i have to disagree. in a song the part that hits ppl most is the lyrics. its the meaning of the song that gives it power. Indeed. I have to agree with you On This Night. The lyrics are what hits people the most in a good song. Pretty much rap is just non-scense talking. I mean, sure lots of people like it, but it's not one of my personal favourites out of all the genre's mainly for that single fact. Nothing could be farther from the truth actually. Rappers are actually the most poetic songwriters out there ATM (with the exception of those s**t rappers like Solja Boi and Lil' Wayne). Here's a few lines from a rap song that I've heard: "I'm addicted to the game like a needle in my vein. I've never been the same I keep chasin' fame. Radio stations with my tape and rotations It's a fake simulation and I'm losin' my patience Just another emulation from a nation filled with product Records about murder we believe and we bought it." All in all it's more of a rant as to how these "gangsta rappers" are giving the true artists a bad name by making s**t up and recording it because it makes them look "bad". It's also about the strife of a rapper who goes to school like you and me but gets his records taken, remixed, and distributed against his wishes and in previous lines attempts to describe what it's like to be a struggling musician in these times. Here's the song for reference http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KpcNw6Ughs
