Since hip hop is so lyrically oriented, how come there isn't a single rapper that's lyrically on Dylan's level?

Dylan fucking sucks. He just makes up stupid fucking gibberish. People like Bob Dylan are why we need another holocaust.
what's so good about dylan?
>>74921475
wait a few years for people to finish their dissertations and you can find a rapper as overrated as dylan
>>74921475
Kendrick
>>74921475

aesop rock is better than dylan
>>74921475
There have been, but you're too deeply entrenched in Eurocentric aesthetic values so there's no point in trying to convince you
>>74921475
um... honey... there is and his name is Lil B, the Based God
>>74921566
Right, examples?
Kanye

Really there's no point, your opening tone is doubting and confrontational, so anything I bring up is probably going to be shot down with the same knee jerk reaction that lead you to make this thread.
If you're looking for anything to give you some insight into the origins of Black American poetics, look at West African folklore like the Sun Jata epic, and you'll start to see why superimposing your white boy expectations only leads to you seriously missing the mark. But that's asking a lot from some entitled kid who spends his time fishing on boards with hyperbolic bait. Maybe just be content knowing that you don't know as much as you think you do.

Because jewish people are the most intelligent race while black people are the least intelligent race.

Saying both are lyrically oriented is still comparing apples to oranges. That's like saying The Avengers is the same as Heat because they've both got ensemble casts. Dyaln deals with surrealism rooted in traditional folk (and later folk rock). Hip hop, for the most part, is rooted in jazz and heavy realism.

Jews are just blacks but smarter because they're white
>>74922203
I'm not even the OP, dude; or white; or even from an Eurocentric country. Just really wanted some pointers. Anyhow, thanks for the help.

This, everyone knows Cohen was the true master of lyricism
>>74922203
Someone's 'tone is doubting' so why bother? What kind of attitude is that?
You're being way too defensive m8. No need to cop out with that eurocentric/afrocentric bullshit.
If the cunt doesn't listen to much hiphop or prefers Dylan lyrically it's no skin off your nose.
>>74923057
look man I don't care if they succeed or fail at it, at the end of the day, if you're rapping detailed shit about real life shit that's realism.

lmao go back to tumblr, nigger
>>74923258
nah i get it i was just having a laugh because a lot of rappers are out here lying their ass off on their tracks
>>74921957
lol not even close
my friends tell me Eminem is better lyrically. I don't agree but they make some solid points.
Kendrick has lyrically dense albums.
>>74921475
Look up
immortal technique - dance with the devil
Then talk to me about deep lyrics.
>>74921475
Big Rare does the trick
>>74921475
Shouldn't you actually post some of his lyrics you consider good first, and ideally explain why?
>>74921488
So...Jews?
>>74923364
are you 12? immortal technique?!
>>74923364
>>74923364
damn... that made me think
>>74923361
Eminem is actually the most vocabulary-heavy mainstream artist ever, according to studies he's used more than 8000 different words on his songs, which is way above average. JAY-Z was on second place.
Kendrick's lyrics are very different to Dylan's, in terms of approach (Bob Dylan's being more surrealistic), but I can see similarities between early Dylan and some of Kendrick's verses that are more focused on social issues.
>>74923449
? Is immortal technique bad now? Im not a fan of all his political stuff, but there is no denying that is one of the saddest stories in Rap.
>>74923449
"Flow like the blood of Abraham through the Jews and the Arabs
Broken apart like a woman's heart, abused in a marriage
The brink of holy war, bottled up, like a miscarriage"
>implying this isn't better than everything meme dylan ever wrote
>>74923479
Not bait. Its a story. Nothing better then a story driven song when it comes to lyrics.
