This first one is more friendly to you, being a topical lyricist that is use to this formation of syllables.
1st: The Multi/Multi-syllabic bar
You use imagery as a device against the opponent, make 'em look how you want 'em to look.Quote:
She'll sky dive in gator shoes; ride in high tides with skater dudes
Plus her gun's an animal with hella KICK -- pulling drive bys on kangaroos
Then you close it out with a PUNCH, that's focused on some decent PLAY ON WORDS. "
A play on words, not to be confused with actual wordplay, is the intertwined usage of words in your bar
"gun's an animal" meaning it wrecks shit
"with hella kick" that's the recoil of the aeformentioned guy, but it also has emphasis on meaning something else
"pulling drive bys on kangaroos" <--- this is where the "animal" and "hella kick" come to a conclusion, and are brought to relevance.
2: The Wordplay bar
Wordplay bars need your topical skills to come in for 2 reasons.Quote:
Leave u permanently tanned, when i raise this 50, ya done..
When shots from the Calcutta nigga, they burn like rays of the Indian sun
The set up needs to paint the scenery for whatever shit you about to spit.
"permanently tanned, when i raise this 50" You can tell this is LITERALLY going to be a "hot" bar
The punch needs to paint a clear connection between one word or phrase and another word or phrase.
"shots from the Calcutta nigga" Usually if somebody talk about a "Cal" they speaking on a gun's diameter fitting a .9, .22, .45 or .50 Caliber. The wordplay here is "Cal cut a nigga"
which is pretty clean considering most bars have awkward or "FORCED" wordplay measure. An example of Forced Wordplay is when I did a "Sheila/She'll" bar last week and the "a" at the end of Sheila made the shit forced and not in sync.
3. The Bidirectional Bar
This one is simple and something you should focus on to build yourself up.Quote:
Ur a females last option, ya weak game will snooze her
A chick MIGHT consider fuckin Killing....herself before she would date this loser
It's a simple set-up, with a misdirection of meaning in the punch.
"A chick MIGHT consider fuckin Killing"
"....."
"herself before she would date this loser"
It's like holding a basketball out in front of ya homeboy and just as he about to grab it, you snatch the shit away from him.
It creates a certain level of surprise.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you master a couple forms out of here, you'll find yourself needing to combine multis, misdirections, play on words and wordplay all in one bar. That's your ultimate challenge as a lyricist.
But your ultimate goal is creativity.
LENOX to thread ^^
Ur just scratching the surface
But infotmative for some i.imagine

The process is like this.
First part is that I get lazy, which prevents me from being dope half the time
Emily was easy pickings, so all them concepts "Em/D-12" could have been HOT if worded better but I just ain't care. should have tho.
The second part is that I'm more of a rookie/sophmore when it comes to text so I'll put up a great jab or a solid punch, just for 4 people to love the shit but the other 7 might be 'veterans' so they'll have heard it.
This shit is trial and error for me right now.
And once I'm on track, I don't see a threat. Just finding that track is the current issue.
G/l
How old are u tho. Curious
Don't worry about that, right now.Quote:
