Thanks for the views, AAHZ. How many should I thank you for, son?

Compare that early DJ Paul's (he may have improved though, I don't know) delivery to Jay-Z. It's night and day. Jay-Z is a master at delivery. Everything Jay-Z does right is the opposite on that Three 6 Mafia track.

Thanks, Cockney, but it was my fault for criticizing his music. I shouldn't have said anything. But since I've opened this up...

My delivery is the only thing that's holding me back. And true; that's weak. But that DJ Paul's delivery on that track I commented on was terrible and far worse. He was mumbling; having these long-ass run-on bars; barely hitting the snare. He raped like a teenager just learning how to rap. Maybe he has improved since those dark days recording on a tape recorder; he probably has; but that delivery was pitiful.

See, because my delivery is my weakest attribute, I pay extra close attention to other rappers' deliveries. I'm trying to learn. But that's what makes me qualified to judge the technical aspects of someone else's delivery.

Let's break it down.

He's monotone and droning throughout his verse. He doesn't switch up his rhyme scheme to pique the listener's ear with dynamic rhyme schemes, he doesn't put emotion to his words; hell, he doesn't even enunciate his words. At 2:22 in, before he says "muddy creek", he is straight mumbling. What the hell does he say? He continues to do that throughout the verse where entire lines are mumbled away. The 3 bars before and after he says "grass", his bars are too long. They sound awkward because they're too long. The way he says "to his feet" sounds so awkward because he takes his breath before the end-rhyme.

Lyrically, his rhymes are simplistic and monosyllabic; though it's hard to figure out what he's saying with his enunciation, he does not utilize any punch-lines, similes, metaphors, etc.
