I've never really paid much attention to lyrics in music. However, lately I've been getting into poetry and whatnot so I'd like to get some recommendations for good lyrical music.

Everyone is going to list hip hop because it's "poetry in rhythm" or something but it's all pretty garbage, the culture and amount of intellect it represents is shit and low respectively.

If anything, stick to poetry. The focus is fully on the art being expressed in the form you're paying attention

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 28 06:37:59 2015 No.55467112 >>55467086 I agree with this sentiment. I've never heard hip hop that had genuinely above 6/10 lyrics (compared to things like poetry). >>55467059 Joanna Newsom is pretty decent though

>>	Anonymous Tue Apr 28 06:38:06 2015 No.55467115 >>55467035 Yes, unfortunately. >>55467086 >>55467052 Tbh I've been listening to a lot of hip hop over the last few months and I really enjoy it, but I was hoping mainly for non-hip hop recs in this thread.
