Great rappers use multis....but multis dont make a good MC...example Fabulous

[Fa-Q]

hes not bad but hes not one of the greats

[Relapse.LP]

Multies used to be worth much less than they are now.

It's often used as a crutch to writers, so creativity is substituted with complex rhyming. But regardless, multies are still important to a good rap, nowadays.

[Enimee]

i agreee with almost everything everyone said

theres defnitly a diffence between a complicated rhyme scheme
and a creative peice of litterature, its a very thin line but it does exist

i wouldnt say multis are essential but they are just another really usefull tool that anyone who claims to be a lyricist can rely on if there resourcefull and/or/i.e creative

multis are on the same page as alliteration, personification, punchlines, personals, assonance (so on and so forth) IMO, and can be used along with these to make any peice weather it be bars for a battle rap, lines for a song, or just poetry...its all rhetoric and its all equally usefull

but yes multis that dont fit, or seem over abundant as if the soul purpose of the peice makes it dull and dry lake of imagination and originality to have a truly original peice it takes the combination of all the aforemention techniques in away that makes it yours...


idk just some thoughts

[AliJack]

THIS IS for all the fucks here that think multis are the greatest thing since sliced bread.. but honestly unless you're creative with multis usually they are really easy, boring, or not good..

second, almost 90% of this forum forces multis, like it's pretty bad, it ruins a what would normally be a decent verse..

now i used to be the same as most of you guys thinking multis are the most important thing, but learnin how to use multis and integrating with ur flow is what makes it dope.

just wanted to say that since everyone seems to be all in the ass about multis ever since Relapse was released.

Real talk. Fuckin real talk. its about the subject, the wordplay, the charisma.

Fabolous is pretty damn good

"Don't mingle, I'm like pringles stackin' my chips
clappin my clips, you the test me type
comin out with a Blade to get Wesley Sniped"

"your gimmiks outa minutes like a track phone"

That's Hitchcock, not Fabolous. And Fabolous does use multies, almost every 3 (sometimes 2) words at the end of a line rhymes with the next 2 ending words in the next line.
His rhyme scheme flows so smooth that it sounds like an instrument, for that he is one of the greats.

[Arabian Shady]

i've allways maintained i'm not a fan of too many multies...i'd rather have meaning,flow,punches,wordplay.
Apart from a few writers on this site,many people use forced multies..and that just takes all the intrest out of the verse.
i remember McMaybe and 4d, they used multies and they incorporated it with punches and wordplay,and hence they're stuff is STILL better than what i read now.
No offense to any one here,i'm sayin you guys need to keep your hand soft on the multies,thats all

word to Tash and Zu

Finally someone made a topic about me I agree and disagree. Idk its hard for everyone to see delivery in text. I know for a fact alot of people force the shit out of their multis, I know I used to. But I try not to force multis, I rhyme just to rhyme at times because I cant help it, But its my natural flow. I hear nothin but multis, I dont think I have lines that arent mutlis. I think i write enough with nothin but multis you can feel they arent forced but my natural flow ya know. I dont like it when multis are just there to be there but honestly Ima a multi rapper plain and simple, but its not all I am, my raps arent usuall jut filller that rhymes with mulits, though everynow and then I'll just make a track all filled with multis. But honestly for the most part my songs are about something and I do my best to but my emotions in that shit, which isnt something everyone can do with text. Just my opinion sorry if its a bit late

The reason why I consider you as the CW king, is that your multies dont look forced at all. At least thats what I think. And I dont see why this topic should be aimed at you. I love multies, I just love 'em. But as soon as I sense that the song has lost its appeal, its emotion and its purpose cause of overused multies....that song wont be gettin too much replay value by me in the future, thats for sure.
Just my two cents.

thanks you, thank you, thank you

Im the perfect example of this... I never use multis on purpouse, still I believe most of my songs are good enough for you to listen without any of them (for example... my best songs)

I do believe that could make a rap sound "doper" (lol)... so its good to use them, once in a while.. but just be creative with your flow and your lyrics


tash for president

[Yah-hah]

Yeah kinda like wat wic was saying using multis is so natural for me I hardly even hear regular rhymes anymore so too me mine dont sound forced. I completely agree with you on the fact alot of people force them

[Spyder]

Ax-D and alot of other people keep going on flow here, i must stress the point that this is TEXT, and how the reader flows it, is the flow your piece has for him. i had some early pieces in which people tell me that my flow was off... to them, i obviously could flow it great
now people say i have one of the best flows, because i dont use a huge vocab and get to complex with the rhyme scheme but still use multies with substance.

you say flow is more important than multies, yet i think these two go hand-in-hand.
[example] "if i ever gave a fuck id shave my nuts, tuck my dick in between my legs and cluck/
you motherfuckin chickens aint brave enough to say the stuff i sai so just tape it shut/

re-write that without multies using differnt words...

of course you should not force them, but i look at a piece and you shouldnt have to look for multies, they should be there already as a given. if i look and see them missing, i say wow this cat needs to step his game up, of course its about the concept of that track. and of course you need to incorporate mutlies into punches and wordplay and all that which i think I, as well of most of the people on here do...
