The tweet from the EOTM Awards, "Top 4 Lyricist" mentions Missy. But their organizations gives 

" The EOTM Awards is an accolade presented by the EOTM Radio & TV Network celebrating entrepreneurial achievements and performances in business, philanthropy and the arts (recordings, television, radio, literature, film, directing and writing)."

Which definition of lyricist do you think they're getting at?

This guy has a popular reaction channel and every time he reacts to Missy, he mentions how she's one of his favorite female rappers but also says "this wasn't anything too deep, but that's not why Missy is my fav." I was just watching this yesterday. I think collectively, nobody seriously thinks Missy is, or has ever tried to be Mos Def.

"it's just cool sounding, I don't care WHAT she was saying"

Speaks to her cadence, flow, her sound, her package. And he's right. The "fire fire jambalaya" lyrics were the parts of her songs people remember, even in jest.... u are proof bby

Missy is often referred as a "top" rapper for having consistent hits where she raps and basically being the female Busta Rhymes with visuals and creativity.

I said they don't regard Missy as a lyricist in the way you and I know it, in the battle rap/conscious rap/Punchline vein.

I think they do

When someone uses the word "lyricist" as opposed to "rapper" they're usually just a bit more inclined than ur average casual rap listener IMO


It's one of those words that everyone doesn't throw around without having an idea of the context

It's always the same hdhdhdf Aaliyah/Ginuwine/Wray/Tim&Missy stans defending and extolling that "cult", which is fine, but wow nostalgia plays a huge factor.

I mean all either one of us can do is speculate about how informed they are , the context etc

Which is why I emphasize "I think" and "IMO"

But the fact is that they do refer to her as a lyricist , and they do list her as a top lyricist . That was my point from the beginning.
