Can someone please critique this rap song:
Respect It
Yo, it’s the ‘art of literary encryption,
Laced with ‘metaphors and vivid descriptions.
Although some is ‘not with the utmost precision,
It ‘has generally accurate depictions.
Some of it is compl’etely filled with fiction,
But what you bel’ieve is your own decision.
Good ‘poetry’s an accurate definition,
Getting ya’ll ta res’pect hip-hop’s my mission.
‘No more rap hating, ‘no more rap dissin,
Some ‘rappers almost end up in prison.
‘In the cell ‘and the drop is ‘where they convey their depictions (end)
They ‘use to their incredible visions,
And they battle ‘back lyrical friction.
Sometimes these ‘lyrics are about false suspicion,
Which can ‘lead to a life and death collision.
To under’stand the life exhibitions,
You need to under’stand this shit, don’t just listen.
Find the goods of this ‘shit by proper inquisition,
Art and ‘feeling’s the main tradition.
‘Rap and hip hop is poetry with ‘often vulgar provisions (end)
In the game, there’s ‘always a talent addition,
But soon, there’s a ‘negative career revision.
Rappin’s ‘all about creative spittin,
With absolutely ‘no muthafuckin restrictions.
Distinguishing Biggie from rap is ‘like performing nuke fission,
2Pac doing classical’s an ‘image no one can envision.
Most inner cities ‘have a stereotypic condition,
You’re doomed to an ‘automatic eternal perdition.
In your talent, the Mobb will ‘make a verbal incision,
And the Wu will ‘hit you with quick lyric ‘mmunition.
Dre’ll shock the ‘world with verbal emission,
Eminem will ‘blaze ya’ll with his contradiction.
Don’t think of them as ‘cussers, their talented musicians,
Whose careers ‘end up going into remission.
Chorus*2
Yo, respect it,
Don’t try ta fuck around with this shit.
Respect it,
Their guns could blaze once their lit.
Respect it,
Don’t even think they have no fuckin wit.
Respect it,
Fuck with them, be prepared for a verbal hit.
Verse 2:
Open-‘mindness is the primary key,
Of course self-‘interest is also indeed,
But remember these are ‘really hard-working MC’s,
And writing this ‘shit isn’t always a breeze.
Even though the heat ‘rotates three sixty degrees,
The life can be ‘’bout the birds and the beez.
Even though I’ve ‘never represented the streets,
It’s ‘been a part of my daydreams.
Rap is about ‘artists’ freedom of speech,
Combined with ‘mostly incredible beats.
I get experience ‘from what I see on movies,
And from the ‘shit I listen to on CD’s.
Rap and hip hop is ‘very special to me,
Because of the ‘works of the Wu and Mobb Deep.
In some cases in the drop the ‘peace is hard to keep,
In many cases the price of ‘living can be really steep.
In some cases, many ‘people like residence in cities,
Because for ‘some it can be simple to make cheese.
Now, some this shit is hard to ‘spit cause my experience is weak,
My only source of knowledge is ‘viewing films and words artists speak.
Now back to the issue at hand, why ‘rap and hip hop’s so neat,
The talent these artists have ob’tained is really a treat.
So the next time you listen to this art, try to ‘fully understand it please,
Cause the shit they ‘spit is the air that they breath.
