That isn't cool at all. If you would get your head out of ass and stop listening to nelly, you would see rappers are some of the best poets

i just quoted the wrong thing. i was trying to reply to whoever wrote the R-retard
A-attempt
P- poetry

Most of the songwriters/artists I listen to these days are still using rhyme in their lyrics (Dave Matthews, Ben Folds, Sting, U2, Bruce Cockburn, Sarah McLachlan, Phish, David Wilcox, among others). Rhymes do not get in the way of a good lyric if the songwriter is doing his/her job right (that means crafting, not just settling on the first thing that pops in one's head). Also, what really makes the difference in whether a lyric has power and passion isn't about the rhymes at all--it's about what's in between the rhymes.

when im song writing i cant help ryming !?!
