[@be28ans]

Ive been following Rapsody back in the MySpace days, i remember sending a message to her about how dope she was and she will be one of the best if she keeps it goin, i remember she wrote me back, i wish i woulda printed it out

[@COAGTV]

Congratulations on having Rhapsody on We Need To Talk . We love her work and what she stands for 💙

[@njabulonkhasi5908]

It's Rapsody not Rhapsody

[@Numoontalk215]

I was part of a JAMLA digital promo team and to meet her. Fan since 2011.

[@mongezicakathiso9947]

I honestly don't understand why people underestimate Rapsody. She always gives me chills❤️...On Sojourner 🔥🔥🔥I love her word play. She is incredible. One of the greatest rappers of her generation❤️

[@katlehoanelemahlatsi7108]

Shout out to Rapsody for holding it down❤❤.. and Shout out Nyla too she's a true conversationalist - not trying too much♥️♥️ Appreciated

[@eddieatoms5041]

Looking forward to the new album. One thing I would say about the “boring” label is that boring can be different for different people. Some people might think Rap is boring for whatever reasons. But other people might find all the turn up shit boring because it’s not doing anything for them. It doesn’t move them…& by move them I mean in any kinda way. Rapsody has songs that move me…from the lyricism, to the flow, to the beat/groove in the music. So I wouldn’t call her boring at all. She makes stuff both men & women can dance to (maybe not so much twerk, but dance to) but also has substance. I think they really mean she raps too much about real shit & they don’t wanna have to think & process…things that might hit home…they just wanna mindlessly turn up…which is okay. There’s a time for that, too. But I don’t think Rap is boring at all.

[@2010datruth]

Dats a fact!

[@packman0439]

People don’t want to think. For a large segment of people, it’s not fun to think. Art will be appreciated by the right people. She will be appreciated. Thanks Nyla.

[@MixxyGirl]

[@bf2093]

Just listened to the album, truly a much appreciated piece of work. Crazy Rapsody just wasn't showing up in my algorithm independently on KZbin/Spotify, always as a feature. But it doesn't matter bc baby you all up in it , got me asking who is Rapsody?!❤❤❤ New fan tapping in🧐

[@kuhlevelaphi6441]

How are you talking to Rapsody and keep referencing sexy red? That's foul!

[@kuhlevelaphi6441]

😂 🤣 2 totally different women

[@shawnbates393]

First off why is this sister asking that question instead of talking the best female lyricist but I guess the sister is apart of the machine so I shouldn’t expect anything less

[@sandszion]

Rap is Top 3 and not the 3. Ever!!

[@Gue57]

I don’t like drake’s music. For me she is in drake’s place.

[@TshoCa]

Nas is the one bruh… jay is great but not the greatest rapper hip hopper nahh
