Rytikal: “Music Isn't About Lyrics Anymore” & "Artistes Are Afraid to Voice on Same Riddim as Me"

[@webking25]

Rytikal is one of the most intelligent and talented dancehall artist of this generation. Keep pushing my DJ the people that are looking for substance in music are listening.

[@kyroffx]

Been saying this bro👏

[@benjierivers1253]

I agree

[@KillyMilly-y7m]

Yaksta bad too

[@Reemdonn]

Glad an artist actually say it, cause people say it's bs when I say it. Music hasn't been about lyrics for years now, it's about who can come up with the best flows, who have the best intro, the best image, the most creative content, music has become less skill based and more entertainment based, who ever can get the most reposts and blanks in a party will come out on top

Music is what you want it to be there’s music for every audience y’all just run with what everyone running with

[@Reemdonn]

@@DewaveProductions Stop acting ignorant and speaking fuckry, give me a list of artists right now that are thriving with lyrical music in Jamaica, there's an audience for everyone but not every "audience" is big, you have artists like Rytikal, Yaksta, Nation Boss, so forth and so on, making good music, and they get a fraction of the views, attention and monetary gain as their counterparts who are making music about "chop di line" and "guzu", we all know it's true, don't be a fool

I am a fan of this artist from a long time. I line that resonated with me was when he said “ mi double time step when dem tink dem can side step”

[@Nyne_mUzik]

Music has never been about lyrics…music is way more than just lyrics got to be creative in the craft…can’t undermine another man work because of how simple it may sound, still creativity.

[@Nyne_mUzik]

@J.AHIT-LIST I get it, not disagreeing. I write music, actually put a lot of thought and effort into expressing myself lyrically but tbh I have no motivation to peruse a career in the industry because of the same thing…just the industry, we may prefer good lyrics and word play but there’s more to it and the other parts sell more.

[@sunnyboy7761]

Lol @ has never been about lyrics, do you know what lyrics mean?

[@bay876]

You're right. check the most successful dancehall songs of all time

[@Nyne_mUzik]

@@sunnyboy7761 lyrics are the words to a song or whatever…the words are just a part of music, hence people liking songs and not knowing the language. Other genres have hit songs with 10 words or less.

[@RytikalOfficial]

So true thats the reason y I said music is not just based on pressure being spontaneous is a key factor so your right 👊

Assassin a big lyricist. From assassin say let the blessings come fo(u)rth me that line never exit me brain. Nah write no essay but Jr Gong, Kartel, Alka - lyricists. And Vado and Sicka are excellent song writers who consistently produce quality songs and above average lyrics. As Ryti say, ano the bagga words and delivery, those are relsted but distinct factors, but the diction and it's impact in the song, on snd on the listener.

Tbh In any business you have to network! Try collab with other artist and producers. Don’t expect producers to reach out to you.

Not taking nothing from no artist but clearly Rytikal doesn't reach the heights of knowing the game and music overall music was never about a bag of lyrics you afto be creative at all time finding new style and pattern , what i think holding back you right now is the bagga lyrics left right and center " tbh if Rytikal to ever go on a big show as a guest artist he wouldnt be well received slow it down bredda and find new ways less lyrics better by far atlease other species can understand a bit of what you uttering.. stop fight your own self with this lyrical match no one does that anymore.
