Illecism x OnSMASH Freestyle



This is really irking me. How is it that rappers with little to no actual lyrical or musical talent get opportunity because of their gimmicks, but gifted lyricists such as Illecism still aren't signed yet. I'm not saying that somebody should just hand the man a contract, or that there aren't talented MC's out there, but where are the standards for hip-hop? Illecism is DOPE!! If you don't see the mastery in this man's lyrics, please listen again. If you don't get it the second time, listen again, because this man's gift for wordplay is at the upper echelon of hip-hop, and yet, he is still unsigned. I don't understand it. Please check out Illecism, as well as the rest of the Fly High crew, because I can't be the only person that thinks hip-hop is more than nursery rhymes and odious chains...
