A lot of people say, &#8216;Man, Waka Flocka ain&#8217;t go no lyrics,&#8217; so I was like, &#8216;Yeah, you right!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Waka, there is a big difference between lyrical prowess and the ability to make hits, the latter of which he believes he has. &#8220;It&#8217;s a total big difference between a person that got lyrics and a person that can make hit singles,&#8221; he explained. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m a person that can make some hit singles. I&#8217;m not in no booth trying to be a lyrical genius. I&#8217;m preparing to make me some singles, and as I develop as a man, then they&#8217;ll respect my emcee skills. <\/p>\n<p>You see a lot of people that can only make hit singles, but on the microphone, on some antique rapping style, they don&#8217;t know how to withstand. That&#8217;s what they call a one-hit wonder.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/201ed65bget.media_1501-150x90.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Read more from the original source:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/foreign.peacefmonline.com\/entertainment\/201103\/147832.php\" title=\"Waka Flocka No 'Lyrical Genius,' Shares Love for Fozzie Bear\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Waka Flocka No &#8216;Lyrical Genius,&#8217; Shares Love for Fozzie Bear<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Theboombox : \u00a0\u00a0 If you thought Waka Flocka Flame is concerned with his lyrical content, think again.
