I often see people ridiculing rappers with low academic qualifications. "There is a threshold to play rap. I think the bottom line is to graduate from junior high school. If you enter high school, you will basically have no relationship with rapper. Of course, you want to be a top rapper. I still have to be illiterate.”
is teased every year in the college entrance examination. If the exam is not good, go to rap. AThree mentioned this phenomenon on Weibo last night.
Many people equate rapper with low academic qualifications. Generally speaking, rapper’s academic qualifications are not high, but there are also rappers who graduated from famous universities. For example, Lu1, Yang Hesu, XZT, and Feezy are all UCLA. ChuckZigga is the University of Chicago and PO8 is the University of Southern California. Have you noticed that the depth of the lyrics of these highly educated rappers is significantly higher than the average level of the circle.
The lyrics must not work for those with low academic qualifications? Not necessarily. Kafe.Hu dropped out of school at the age of 13, but not going to school does not mean he stopped studying. After releasing his first album "Mentality in the 21st Century", he reads at home every day. The most impressive book is "History of Western Art". This book made him interested in Lucifer, so he had his second album "27: the Code of Lucifer".
rapper may not have a high degree of education, but you must be educated and enrich yourself through learning.
AThree said "read more books when you have time". He did this himself. When he recorded "Rap Listen to Me", he was watching a copy of "Border Town". This is not a pretending to be a cultural person. He is the champion of Bole City. , Is a true cultural person.
Ai Re said that AThree is a Chinese rap lyricist. It is the best written lyrics in the show. How will the words be made? AThree has already given the answer, study, enrich the knowledge reserve.
Guo Degang said in cross talk many times that the artist's fight to the end is culture. The same is true for rapper. Watching "The New Generation of Rap", there are often people in the barrage of "cultural rap" and "cultural oasis". Yes, culture determines the depth of the lyrics and the ideological realm of the work. Only the cultural person can write "The Caveman and the Night Ship", culture Only humans can write amazing wordplay, and cultural people can be called "rapper poets" by the audience. On the contrary, "Cultural Desert" often writes about tickets, cars, and horses, that kind of bad street theme.
To put it more bluntly, "Cultural Desert" can write rap that makes people sway and recycle, can become a technology stream, can do melody love songs, but will not become a "rap poet", and cannot write "sacred works" ". What is God's work? To cite a few examples, the villain "More than One Murderer", Pharaoh "Intimate Lover 2017", Little Tiger "No Applause", Dong Baoshi "Haizi".
Finally, I want to tell a story. In April 2018, a fan posted her brother's composition in the circle of friends (at the time in the second year of the first grade). The younger brother said that he wanted to play rap and wanted to surpass Beibei and Haier. At that time, I wrote about this in a tweet. Just yesterday, that fan told me, “I found a very emotional thing today. Do you remember that you interviewed my younger brother two years ago? Many people said at the time that he would not For writing, a lot of Pinyin is used. As a result, he has now won the first place in the writing competition." It doesn't matter how he plays in rap now, what matters is that he has improved in his studies. I want to say that culture is not only important to the rapper, but also important to everyone. Culture can determine what kind of rap a rapper makes, and what kind of person we become.
So, read more books when you have time.
