Underground vets such as Copywrite, Jakki, and Chino XL had the best similes. Nowadays, alot of the simile usage in rotation are extremely lackluster. I was referring to using them in text.

Stop dissing Muff's bars like that, man.

Lmao I don't know whether text is progressing or reverting most of the time tbh.

And if that's the case, and similes are permissible, then statementish lines should be too. Alot of the best material from the early to mid 2000's had statementish stuff that was dope.

I don't mind seeing similes coming back, but to me it's a double standard to allow similes and not statementish bars.

and I don't mind similes if they're tied in with something else, a line that is only a simile is super underwhelming and a waste.

This too...I blame illunatic. When he did mags last season and broke down battles, he was calling wack bars good and good bars wack, he did a lot of damage to txt.

How tall was she?

clout was the girl dunking

that was the joke

buh dump tss










*crickets*

Leave this all these open till late tomorrow so I can vote..

I always believed that personals didn't have to have a "flip". You word it as harshly as possible as a statement. That's how it used to be...idk when it changed but it needs to go back to how it was. I can show plenty examples of personals that were harsh n dope n voters said nah its too much of a statement. That's what a personal is foo! I ranted about this in a mag a couple weeks ago

I'd trip clout mid air before he even made it to the rim
