Is google right, are these the best lyricists of all time?

Are these GENIUS rappers spittin' fire better than the likes of Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, and Morrissey?

*reminder it reads left to right, the left side being the best.

...

Dylan is my favorite rapper

they're all pretty good for the most part. IDK about paul mccartney or beyonce, though

>all post 20th century
lel

Ian Curtis is my favorite

this tbqh

>Drake
>Lupe
>Kanye
>Biggie

?

>Google
>Reliable
Nope

Yes, the only question is why those irrelevant wh*te people are even listed alongside those modern kings.

Honestly I'd put Nas at his best up there with Dylan and Cohen. There are some decent rappers there but I wouldn't consider any of them amazing lyricists.

>best lyricists of all time
>no Petrarch
>no Dante
>no Johnson
>no Keats
wtf are they even doing?

>Kendrick Lamar
r u fkn srs ?

THAT'S

nice bait

>doesn't even mention X
Bruh, he can at least touch me through his songs nigga.

>all mainstream, major label talents
>All peaked by the 90s
>all anglophonic
This is some "I'm 14 years old and an authority on music" shit.

Das rite white boy. You mad? We culture now f a m.

They're just ordered by search popularity, dingus

Fucking Drake?

Jesus, this is embarrassing

Hey, tedy is back

>hip hop has good lyrics meme

One of the biggest fallacies in music

>beyonce

Is there even any proof she has written any music? Taylor at least knows how to play an instrument so it's conceivable that she maybe wrote some of her music, but Beyonce has always been just a face for an army of producers working behind the scenes.

hmmmmmmmmm

nice bait

>beyonce
>taylor swift

Facts are bait now? You're pretty special aren't you?

beyonce is one of the most influential pop artists and has changed the scene entirely with topics she includes in her songs

THAT'S AN AWFULLY HOT COFFEE POT

>That image of Paul

based as usual

Black people are good lyricist, white people are good songwriters

Forgot pic

...

>No Bach
>No Beethoven
WTF

Sly Stone and Prince should be there.

Yeah, but you can hire people to write about anything for you. How do the subjects of her songs change the fact that she doesn't write them?
