Highly recommended. Milo and Open Mike Eagle are great. Nocando's output has yet to really break through but he's an incredibly talented rapper. Busdriver is kind of a living legend.
Is this the same one that battled Franco at scribble jam that one year lol
Yeah, paak has really blown up but he has songs with Milo and Busdriver. He's part of the crew. Not sure how actively involved he is presently though.
Even though I like the older scribble jams better, his response to Franco's random race lines with "I like chicken my hair's nappy you happy, what's next you gonna wear a white hood and call me blackie?" is one of the best responses in the event's history lol.
It was incredible. I remember him battling the saurus at some point and calling him old, to which the saurus quickly chimed in with "I'm 25." Immediately following that, Nocando responded, "25? Oh, you're a funny guy/ I'll whip you upside the head, leave you running like eggs on the sunny side" and you could tell that everyone there was super impressed with just how quick Nocan was. I think you'd have to see the video to understand how seamlessly Nocando weaved that line into his previous rhyme scheme.

Um, that's among the "99 best selling artists of all time." He's probably only up against like six or seven other rappers in that comparison. Jay-z is #2 on that list but is pretty much directly in the middle of average on this one.
I don't know why you get that. Do you get those vibes when people talk about lyricism as well?
I just think it drags those two down a bit. There really shouldn't be a cap of 35,000 on the vocabulary, that's my biggest gripe here. I'm sure there's some great lyricist such as Kendrick and Lupe that should be up higher on the list but are being shown around the middle because of the limit allowed.
This seems to make the association that "more unique words used = better lyricist" and I don't think that's the case. "Ain't no Sunshine When She's Gone" is an incredible song and I'd be surprised if it uses more than 100 words.
I agree with everything you said here. Maybe I can rephrase what I mean, sorry I'm tired.
I wouldn't mind seeing that either. Especially considering that some artists improve over time.
Royce 100% should be on here, He probably got overlooked. I don't see Joe Budden either.
The goat 🐐. He is incredible with words. The way he twists and bends them to fit the rhyme schemes is insane sometimes
