@Benny The Butcher shows us how to be fashionably late with rap flow, in "Johnny P's Caddy (feat. J Cole)" Microtimed rhythmic deviations are widely used in music ranging from classical to Jazz music, under several different monikers: tempo fluctuation, downbeat delay, rubato, rhythmic fluidity, free timing etc. When used in rap, it brings a conversation characteristic to the MC's delivery which lends itself well to storytelling and heavy lyricism, which is why it's such a common feature of Boom Bap and Neo-Boom Bap Hip hop. It might sound seem like random timing, but to truly skilled rappers it's anything but. #mazbouq #rapscience #musictheory #rapper
