If you were to read or hear a rap battle between 2 M C's could you tell who's rap was better? prob a stupid question to some, but there is reason why I ask...

Who's "rap" was better....or who's "flow" was better...some have incredible lyrics...but their flow is horrible....others are fluid with 3rd grade lyrics...
well if you put it that way could you break it down like spit 1 Vs spit 2 text style (so we lookin at lyrics) complexity= structure= flow= multies= punches= personals= over all=

Guess you were thinking that you could spit some Eminem style with Twista speed.....LMAO.......don't think so, bro....Not even WuTang Clan. But If you had talent, it doesn't need to be explicit to be good, or acceptable....see old school rap like RUN DMC.....The Fat Boys....or the pioneers, innovators, Sugar Hill Gang.
I still say one of the first rappers was "Blondie" with "Rapture"....lol
I am not really into rap. it mostly sounds all alike, a bunch of run on sentences. It has to be pretty unique and have good music for me to tolerate it..lol

Blondie was not before Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five....you just heard Blondie first on mainstream radio. I'm going to defer this to Izzy....he's got a line on this better than I.....
Wrong Brothers & Sister, Burt is Right, Sugar Hill hit the airwaves first, But Blonde, Oh fine Blondie was the first one to mix it up with rock ala Run DMC and Aerosmith, Rapture Great LP and Blondie great A....
Betcha didn't expect me to jump into this thread LOL afterall I am usually a Chopin sort of girl but I do have my quirks and in music I like most genre's.... as for "rap" I love the Beastie's-does anyone know if they are still doing anything with music or have they retired? and I also like Ludacris for his beats and flow, I LOVE Kanye West but so does everyone else I guess but is he really "rap"?
