Curious....Anyone think Ludacris is slept on as a rapper? Or even, not as a rapper but just as a lyricist period? I think that he's underrated and has pretty thought provoking lyrics. Of course, they always have those shows where a bunch of people decide who are the top 10 rappers or hip hop artists in the game. Lil wayne is always at the top somewhere, if not first. Eminem is always on there although I'm not sure if he's ever gotten the number 1 spot. He sure as hell deserves it if he hasn't. Especially now. But I see Ludacris on the lower ends most of the time. Maybe 6th or 5th or something like that. I mean, it's not bad but it's not the best either. I mean, wayne has had some decently worded songs in his time, I do admit. Whether or not he wrote them, I don't care Lol. And Eminem is just a beast on all sides. But Ludacris barely gets noticed with his lyrics and his style of rap. He's actually pretty damn good if you pay close attention to the things he is saying. I'm a big fan of metaphors, so when rappers use them and use them right, it blows my mind and makes me like them even more. Drake uses them a lot. So does Wayne. Eminem even more. The different between Wayne, Drake, and Eminem though is, Em can just explode with insane raps that don't have to necessarily be metaphorically speaking. He could just go off in the booth and come up with something to destroy a song entirely. Wayne can't do that. And if he can, then he hasn't been lately. His raps are similar to nursery rhymes sometimes. They have to rhyme and they don't necessarily always have to make perfect sense. Drake usually makes sense, but he puts way too much emphasis on metaphors. Wayne puts more emphasis on metaphors, that's why it sounds stupid sometimes. But when it comes to Drake, he seems to be basically speaking his mind. Writing out thoughts and making them into thought provoking metaphorical lyrics. And it usually sounds pretty good. Not all the time but usually. Ludacris though, if you go and listen to his lyrics on different remixes or different songs, the things he says are pretty interesting. Sometimes funny. Sometimes thought provoking. Metaphorical too. I just like him more and more every time I hear a new song that he's on. I just thought I'd share that. Also, Eminem is pretty amazing. That is all. "We run from the red & blue lights to get to that green. But whoever got that white is winning like Charlie Sheen." Winning!
