Style?

---

i have so many styles, and so many different variations of spitting my words...and i just dont know which style to stick to. i mean i got dat lil wayne, punchline type. and i got a fast delivery ill lyrics like bone thugs. i also got a slow feel me type like plies...i cant pick which to stick to... and im working on putting them all together, but its hard to get the sound right... can anyone help?also. remember to add my myspace/check out my tracks and vote for me on http://www.musicnation.com/music/datkidandhttp://www.myspace.com/nightlifedatkid(if u vote for me please remember to do it again the next day...

I doubt 2Pac asked people what style he should use.

tupac developed his style over the course of like 5-6 years... i think i should just rap however i rap it, and keep my audience on there toes...

Ok, so what's the point of this topic?
Fact is, if you have to change however you rap just to make people like ti, you may not be such a good rapper after all

I don't think that's true.In rap it is true. Kanye West has a weird style... he talks about stuff that doesn't make any sense when thrown together, but it mostly rhymes and are clever rhymes and it soudns good. A lot of people don't like it, but he's still not going to change his style.Then you have someone like Twista, who has (or had, it's possible someone broke it) the world record for being the fastest emcee in the world... I think he was rapping 11.2 syllables per second. That's his style, talking fast.Different people have different styles, and even thoguh the artists may change it a little bit (for example, if someone curses too much and it doesn't deliver to the crowd as well, he may tone that down), they don't change their entire style to suit the crowd's need.

Im a huge hip hop Fan. More into the Big L, Notorious, Wu Tang, Jay-Z, Kanye etc.SOOO many songs are different from them. SO MANY. Look at Kanye's first album (I gotsta play it now.. !) SSOOOO GOOD! It has a very different style than his last album, graduation.. he has grown as a performer.. he has changed.. I still enjoy his music just as much as he did when he first came out. Actually I LOVE him.. saw him in concert last wednesday at the molson amphetheatre.. outside theatre.. too bad it rained! Boo! But it was worth it!Have you ever heard that 7 minute freestyle with Big L and Jay-z? One of the pimpest songs by Jay-z FOR SURE. He sounds very different now.. whats the first song you remember from Jay-z? Hard knock life? Look at his new album.. so different!Same with the Wu! A true fan isn't going to stop liking you if your music changes.. Diversity is key baby! Keep up the amazing work!

i can deliver multiple ways. fast, slow, kanye style, bizzy bone style, even rza style. they all come natural to me.which is why i was askin for which i should choose and stick to/perfect. but i think i should perfect them all...

To paraphrase John Mellencamp...

Forget all about that rap crap and learn how to play guitar!

I was born in a small town!! I was born in a really small town!!

I love john mellencamp

BTW Grown.. RZA is my fave Wutang Member fo sho.

Have you heard His song with Xavier Naidoo?

i dont like rza that much, but i know him in real life. he's my ex girlfriends / the girl that i love's mom's boss... basically her mom works for rza. shes like his accountant and shit. i met him a couple times... but i dont really like the way that he raps... he's smart but his accent ruins it for me. plus when he raps i dont feel it, and he's said to me and to my ex's family that he would rather make beats than rap...edit: and to me thats not how a rapper should be... great rappers eat shit breathe and drink rap... ask ANY SINGLE PERSON who knows me, what i do ALL DAY LONG!!!i rap, all day every single day... about the most pointless shit in the world... for instance earlier i was rapping at the drive through window at jack in the box...i believe i said somethin like this..."were sittin here at the drive through window,bidin my time, waitin for food, so i flow,about pointless things, that rumage my mind,(the food came)well damn jenny (the ladies name) its about time..."lol i do that shit all day...
