I mean I get that if I said literature you'd go "NOOOO I DON'T LIKE IT SO IT'S BAD I'M LITERALLY GOING INSANE" but the word fiction doesn't have a connotation denoting being of high quality like literature does, why are you greentexting me exactly?

>>17622337
What are you trying to communicate by greentexting the words "black fiction"? If you're saying it's bad, like I said, fiction doesn't denote being of any particular quality or lacktherof. If not, are you saying there are no Black authors or something?

I'm not a lyricspleb but a music fan. Biggies backing tracks are mixed so poorly that the entire first album is unlistenable. And he only has what 2 albums? 2pac has 3 great albums and one is a double. Then he had so much recorded that they could release 3 albums of his throwaway lines and they still have good songs.

>> No.17622432

>>17622420
If I cared more about the melody than the lyrics I wouldn't be listening to Biggie or 2pac, I'd be listening to Geto Boys. The best feature of older rap as a genre was it's good lyricists.

You misspelled Bone Thugz. Nah. 2pac has way more a far more diverse discography and wasn't so fat he couldn't go high bpm. Lyrics are for normalplebs and are by far the least important aspect to music, even rap.

Ready to die's treble is ear damaging. Life after death is good but still not good enough to go back to.

>My debut novel The Gilded Ones is set in Otera, an African-inspired fantasy world. It follows a group of girls who are deemed demons by society because they are Alaki, near-immortal beings who are faster and stronger than regular humans. When actual demons invade, the girls are given a choice: fight them or die.
