RAP = RHYTHM ASSISTED POETRY. I’m glad that rap is making a comeback and that this generation appreciates the art.

does it actually mean that or is that one of those awesome coincidences?

"I spit fire with the faith that can cleanse away arson (our sin)". This is brilliant, boy

[@killerluuk]

Not at all.

[@jamardns77]

The Lois lane bar probably went over heads. That was a whole scheme

[@Mr03andy]

The one that got me was the “guns be firing, but I’m hiring!!!” And the Lois lane part too was dope, cuz I bet you a Lois lane exists in Philly, and E been around or lived in that area

[@dzzzzzt]

Fire that cleanse arson? 🧐 Hmm.. The wordplay is there but not the meaning. Unless?

As best as I could translate Rioloz: "Then listen to the flow that comes from the forest, next to the river of Black villages where the trees have voices." Next level poetry.

[@LowandFast357]

Lyrics like these get the heart geeked. My blood flow stepped up, and chills started flowing from the top. If you don't have the same feeling, it's because you still listen to radio station rap.

[@user-tc2or2so1y]

These brothers are so effin talented. They are quite literally UNTOUCHABLE. NO ONE COMES CLOSE! They are truly in a lane, on a planet all by themselves and we trying to get put on. The LYRICISM & WORD PLAY 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥!!!!! I HATE that the music industry has gatekeepers and is about bull-ish bc THESE brothers are what we should be hearing on EVERY radio station on HEAVY ROTATION. ONG!!
