I think the problem is that Lil' Dap was paired up with a rapper who was considered wack (Melachi) which brought down his lyrical skill by association; by no means would he ever be placed in a category of dope emcees list but he had an ill voice and flow and had some wordplay, and his rhyming got much better years later when he put out the second Group Home album but their first album is still a classic to me and the lyrics were pretty straight forward but not complex but definitely not wack.

And today we got rappers who are going gold & platinum with less than half the lyrical skill as Lil' Dap and Melachi had; but yeah I wish people would stop calling them a wack lyrical group though.

^^^^^^^^

I've always said this...People mix up having an old school cadence/rhyme pattern with being wack....Dap was saying some REAL HEARTFELT shit...And on the real, he had a dope voice...

Now Melachi was pure wackness personified....

He just happened to be a scary, insane son of a bitch.....

GOAT of his era......long live Prince.....God is alive....

I wouldn't say they were good.... they've got swagger but their lyrics aren't great by a long shot.

True but the debut album worked. I liked it a lot. They got their point across over great beats.

Thinking of Jeru or Nas over those beats makes one wanna cry

That was their real problem, which isn't much of a problem

They still made some excellent music

And Malachi is an average talent rapper in today's rap

And like people said, Lil Dap was never considered wack

Like...they worked on it, but it almost frustrates you thinking of how much better somebody else could be on them.
