Are rappers the only musicians who write their lyrics?

    Try punk rock, Speer. In general, I'd say that punk lyrics are much more interesting than rap lyrics.

        I was just joking on bashing this thread. I have nothing against this thread. I just though the title was narrow minded.

        Sometimes the way Speer thinks, it seems like he's never really experienced the world outside of where he lives. Not everything is like that in Philadelphia. And I don't think he's heard enough rock music to say that they don't write their own lyrics. He only based this thread on a few posts in the Shakira thread when someone mentioned that Bono doesn't write that many U2 songs.

        As for pop music even I can't say much. I don't know enough about the music to say if they write their own lyrics. I'm sure some do.

        As for other types of music, I'm not sure. Did Frank Sinatra write his own lyrics? That's a good question.

        I just felt the thread title was amusing.

          Rappers, running the mouth with fast words that don't mean Shlt, with someone in background try to destroy a record album by scratching it on a turntable.

            No...

            But with a voice like that who needs to write his own lyrics?

                      I love frank's version of Send In The Clowns. He has it all over anyone who has done it since.

                          It would if we wanted to use it in the Clash website for two years. I can use it as a comp for free, however, i.e., this is what it might look like blah blah blah.

                              MarkG if you are a good photographer, there is lots of money to be had with selling images.

                              Some of those images that you can buy from the Getty Company routinely sell for 2 or 300 dollars. Even the crappy ones go for like $50 a pop.
