what do you look for most?????

[kontac]

a tight beat or dope rhymes what makes a song a hit your thoughts????????? or a cool hook

 

[bayareapimpin]

a dope beat

 

[L-wood]

a dope beat

Then good lyrics to complement the Dope Beat.......but defintely the beat grabs my attention first.

 

[L-wood]

The shorter the better on the hook if ya ask me.

 

[NOSTRIL KING]

Fresh drums and a well EQ'd beat (nice and bright, I hate that muddy ass jazz sample based east coast shit).

After that, lyrics which paint a true picture, description. I don't give a fuck how clever you are with the metaphors, if you're not painting a clear vivid picture you ain't sayin shit.

 

[goldthangs21]

all of the above

depends on what the purpose of the song is...

 

[Tony Slaps]

THE BEAT but if the vocals arent half decent than it kills the beat anyway sooo.....

 

[Bleezal]

da beat, then the voice, then the lyrics..

 

[MOBBIN-SHAWTY]

The shorter the better on the hook if ya ask me.

...then of course the beat, voice and delivery... I'm trying to hear something no one has said before...

 

[Psilo707]

Beat
Voice And Delivery
Lyrics 3rd.

Truthfully I dont care too much about Lyrical content anymore... I mean i do a little... but i have more fun listening to someone like mac dre yell out "ITS MEEEE ... HEEEE... CUTTHOAT THREE....." , than some serious shit. even if it makes no fucking sense

What Eeeezzzzzz it??? What eeeeeeeEEEEEzz it?

 

[Blackjack 1577]

Tha beat is what I notice first, then tha lyrics and delivery.

 

[28g w/o the bag]

yep, the lyrics can be tight as hell... but without a tight beat to back it up, the lyrics are lost

 

[G-ro]

BEATS, BEATS, BEATS : that what is all about!!!

 

[kontac]

good shit yall

 

[UKantCMe]

beat first, but if the lyrics suck, then i probably won't listen to it again.

 

[kontac]

man i remember the first time i heard TELA some one was pounding that shit and that made me buy that shit

 

[NOSTRIL KING]

AHHAHAHAHHAHA I knew yall was gay. Listening to shit for the fuckin beats. Fuckin ravers.

Go take 20 X pills and dance all night playing with your lights.

 

[Sydal]

a HIT goes like this....DOPE BEAT, CATCHY HOOK, THEN LYRICS!!

 

[KnowNoGood]

ALL OF THE ABOVE!

I TRULY AGREE WITH SYDAL...IT'S BEATS, LYRICS, AND DELIVERY. THEN I AGREE WITH MOBBIN-SHAWTY ABOUT SAYING SOMWTHING THAT AIN'T BEEN SAID BEFORE, THAT'S WHAT I DO IN EVERY SONG I'VE WRITTEN SO FAR. FUCK NOSTRIL KING AND WHAT HE SAID ABOUT METAPHORS, YOU CAN PAINT A CLEAR PICTURE BUT WITHOUT A FEW METAPHORS YOU JUST SAYIN' BULLSHIT. JUST MY OPINION THOUGH. IF YOU RESPECT IT COOL IF YOU DON'T FUCK YOU! AS FAR AS LYRICAL CONTENT IT AIN'T THAT BUT HOW YOU PRESENT YA SHIT. ONLY FOOLS WHO WORRY ABOUT CONTENT ARE THOSE WHO PROBABLY ASK THEMSELVES WHAT ARE THEY GONNA WRIT ABOUT WHICH IS WHAT I NEVER DO.

 

[MOSA]

first the beat ...If that doesnt catch me within 20-60 seconds. then I'll turn it off. I f it does then I look for the words and then the hook
